What will that change bring to me ? Will it sec me living in dreams of a happy past, a healthy woman who has given to the world fair daughters and strong sons ? Or will it see me only the woman who was; a moaning invalid, a burden to those I love, bioken of body and miserable of mind? Tlie pertinency of those questions to every woman lies in the fact that few of them pass through this period of functional change without suffering both physically and mentally. Like bo much of womanly suffering, this, too, is accepted unavoidable penalty which the pay to nature. This view of suffering is a gross slander on nature, whose every season has its own charm, and who "hath made all things beautiful hi their time." In a healthy condition there should be no suffering for women at this neriod of chancre. When there is suffering ; when the body is in I pain, and the mind is clouded by jealous- les or darkened by fears, it is generally ( uixause me womanly organism is diseased j and the nervous force exhausted. ji It is at this crisis that the great medi- f cine lor women, Dr. Tierce's l'avonte I're- srrirvtioti -...-...rv(- 2tc .n1.r n..A... rsi.!

It will I preserve her from the chronic inva lidism which claims so many victims at this pe riod of functional change. It will give her physical strength, tranquil ' nerves, sound sleep, and a ll healthy appetite. i3 Woman's Rocemmon- elation, Mrs. M. Barnes, of Balls Kern-, Shas ta Co., Cal.," writes: "My physician said I was suffering from the effects of 'change of life.' I hail heart disease, uterine trouble, and rheumatism. My head was so dizzy I could hardly stand. When I began to use Dr. Pierce's medi. cities I improved right along. I took seven or eight bot tles of the ' I'avorite Prescription,' a teaspoonful three times a day, and the ' Pleasant Pellets ' at night. I feel as well as I ever did. I take great pleasure in recom mending Dr. Pierce's medicines to suffering women. I think they are the best medicines in the world. I can't say enough in their praise. The 'I'avorite Prescription' cured me after I had been so sick for two years that I was hardly able to be about." The greatest advertisers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription are the women who have used it and proved its remarkable power to cure womanly diseases. The testimony of a weak 'woman who has been made strong, or a sick woman who has been made well, by the use of "Fa vorite Prescription," is something real and tangible. It is not like the specious promises to cure which are held out in a certain class of advertisements. It is not prophecy, but history. When some woman says to a sister in suffering : " I know that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will help you, because it helped me ; because it cured my diseases and banished my pains," the woman who hears the testimony instantly seizes hold of the fact that there is help and healing right within her reach. as Sush si Wonderful we."

Dut in every ease the use of this medicine greatly benefits, if it does not completely cure. in the case ot Mrs. Bowman, given below, she was relieved of three - f ourtlis of her pain. From a woman who was unable to do anything, and who feared that she would lose her mind because of the terrible pains in her head and neck, she has been changed by "Favorite Pre scription " to a woman who can work every day in reasonable comfort.

I had such pains in my head and in the back of my neck that I thought I would lose my mind. Now I can work every day and do not suffer one-fourth of the pain. I recommend 'Favorite Prescription to all fe males suffering in the period of change of life. It is the best medicine I have ever found." Nothing is claimed for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription which has not been accomplished by it, not once only, but over aud over again. Behind the claim that "Favorite Prescription" makes weak women strong and sick women well stand half a million women, who have been cured of irregularity, disagreeable drains, inflammation, ulceration, or female weak and who have been strengthened for strain of motherhood.
