There is bo
prettier sight in
the world than
that of a healthy,
happy mother at
play with brr ro
bust and rollick
ing baby. It is a
sight entirely too
infrequent. Too
often the baby is
minv and neevish
and the mother sickly, fretful, and nervous.
The woman who neglects to take proper care
of herself and who therefore suffers from
weakness and disease of the organs of wo
manhood cannot be healthy and amiable.
Her cnimren will oe puny and ailing ana
happiness will pass bv on the other side.
There is no reason why every woman should
not be the healthy, happy mother of robust
and playful children if she will take tht
proper care of herself. Proper care means.
nrst 01 an, proper medicine for her ailments.
Dr. 1'ierce'a Favorite Prescription will
make any woman strong and well in a wo
manly way. It cures all weakness and dis
ease of the distinctly feminine organism. It
prepares a woman for motherhood. It in
sures the health of the baby. It makes
parturition easy and nearly painless. Over
go, 000 women have testified to its virtues,
in writing. Druggists sell it and have no
substitute "just as good." The druggist
who tries to force something else upon you
is not an honest man. lie is trifling with
your life and happiness for the sake of a
greater profit to himself.
Mrs. F. E. Forgcy. of Cants, Keyapnha. Co.,
Neb., writes: " I write to you again cuuecrning
my daughter, Mrs. I). BilhuK. she has taken
two bottles of ' Favorite Prescription ' and two
of 'Golden Medical Discovery.' She thinks the
medicines did her a world of good. She was con
fined the 15th of February. Was sick alwut
three hours, and now has a ten pound daughter.
She got along nicely afterward. She says she
never felt so well, bhe looks well and her com
plexios is clear."
aThe modern business world won't stand
till or loiter to wait for the man who sxffera
from headaches, biliousness and dyspepsia,
caused by constipation. Dr. Pierre's Pleas
ant l'clkts cure constipation. Of druggi'Ua.
