A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy 18 made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy. skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman®s ills.
Over 350,000 pounds of various herbs
are used anually and all have to be
gathered at the arnson of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub-
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs,
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as a fing] precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pas
in sterile bottles.
It is the wonderful combination of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation |
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment of
female ills,
