It shows the inherent desire of
a woman to be helpful that her
chief complaint against suffering
is often that she cannot work,
What must such a condition
mean to the woman who must
work if she would live? There
is no woman so independent of
spirit as a working woman, And
yet there are many self-depend-
ent women struggling on day by
day, knowing that they must soon
break down and become depend.

For weak, run-down, over
worked women there is new life
and new strength in Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. It cures
backache, headache, Nervousness,
sleeplessness and other conse.
quences of womanly diseases, by
curing the diseases which cause
these ills. It establishes regu
larity, dries weakening drains,
heals inflammation and ulcera-
tion, and cures female weakness.
"I suffered from female weakness
for three years so that I could not
work,” writes Miss Clara Peterson, of
Manhattan, Ill. {Box 253). "Was all
run-down, only weighing ninety
pounds (used to weigh one hundred
