THE TORN OF LIFE.
Us Prolinble Effect on Woman's
Health and Happiness.
Women look with apprehension upon
that Utile gcncially known na the
" change of life." Observation hns
nliowtt them that sotticilmcs that clmni;c
is so far-reaching that It Involves Ixith
mind and liody in suffering. At such n
time the mirror sometimes shows crent
clmnget in the face ; changes wlilch
mark the piln and stifFerlng which are
being endured. Often, too, In these
dolorous days there is almost complete
physical collapse. The suffering woman
drops into a chair nnd with closed ecs
struggles against her weakness. The
suftering of this critical period in
wonnn's life often leaves its lasting scars
on the mind as well as the body. This
time of trill and trouble has been passed
iti ease and happiness by women who
had learned the wonderful value of that
woman's medicine, Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. By the use of this remedy
THE "CHANGi:" IS CHANGED
from a time of distress and misery to a
time of comfort and happiness.
" It is now two j ears since I first began
to use your medicines," writes Mrs.
Clmfles E. Thompson, of Georgetown,
Kldorado Co., Cat. "I first tried the
'I''aorite Prescription' and found that
befoie I had taken one bottle I was im
proving. When I commenced to take
the medicine I thought I would never
live through the 'change.' I suffered
from all the troubles one could have and
live. I hid stomach trouble; lived on
dry bread and hot water for three
months, not being able to keep any food
on my stomach; had constipation and
awful headaches; was bloated at times
in the bowels, had pain in the chest and
hacking cough, but, thanks to Dr. Pierce
I am not troubled any more. I used the
'Pellets' and the 'Golden Medical Dis
covery ' in connection with ' Favorite
Prescription,' and find all of them just
as Dr. Pierce recommends them to be.
"Since last October I have traveled
over hard, rocky roads in farm wagons,
and felt no return of any of my old
troubles, and I know that before using
Dr. Pierce's medicines I could not have
stood half of it, as the least jar would
have caused aching from head to foot.
" I most highly recommend all of Dr.
Pierce's medicines, and I hope all ladies
suffering from female complaint will try
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription."
The claim made for Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription that it makes weak
women strong and sick women well is
a comprehensive one and covers every
iorm of womanly weakness or sickness
which medicine can be expected to cure.
"Favorite Prescription" establishes reg
ularity and dries the offensive drains
which weaken women. It quenches the
fire of inflammation, heals the gnawing
ulcei, and cuies the backache and bear-
fMUSMNTS.

hiR-down pains Inseparable from femtt
weakness. Mothers find in "Favorlbj
Prescription " a wonderful tonic, impart
ing great physical strength, promoting
the appetite and inducing refreshing
sleep. It keens the pros)ecttvc mother
in health and strength nnd make th
baby's advent practically painless.
CLAIMS VS. CORKS.
It is rery much caster to make cltrmt
than to make cures. It is by its cure
"Favorite Prescription" is to be judged
and by the multiplied testimonies to
these cures given by the grateful women
who have been restored to perfect health
and strength through the use of this
great medicine.
"About five years ago I had rery poor
health," writes Mrs. S. 12. WhaienVof
Ilolden, Johnson Co., Mo. "After doe
toriug four years with our town doctors
they gac my case up; said they had
done all they could. I had been con
fined to my bed half my time ; the other
half coultf hardly drag around. 1 had
buch pains in my back and abdomen I
could not stand on my feet for mor
than n few minutes. My feet were cold
or burning, and my periods came too
often. The doctors said it was change
of life, so, as I had heard of Dr. Pierce'a
medicines, my husband got mc a bottle
of 'Favorite Prescription.' I took it
nnd it hoped me in some ways, so I
wrote to j ou and followed your advice.
I commenced ' Favorite Prescription,
' Golden Medical Discovery ' and tho
'Pleasant Pellets,' as I was so consti
pated alt the time and pills would
weaken me so that I would have to go
to bed. To the great surprise of every
body I got well, and when I met my
friends tliey would say 'I never thought
ou would be here now.' Hut I can say
it was jour medicine, which no doubt ia '
the best in the world. Have no use for
doctors since I tried your medicine."
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
purely a vegetable preparation and can
not disagree with the weakest constitu
tion. It contains no alcohol and is abso
lutely free front opium, cocaine, and all
other narcotics.
Accept no substitute for " Favorite Pre
scription" if you wish to be cured as
others have been. Insist upon the remedy
with a record for the cure of weak and
sick women.
Women suffering from disease in
chronic form are inv ited to consult Dr.
Pierce, by letter, ice. All correspond
ence is held as strictly private and
sacredly confidential and the written
confidences of women are guarded by
the same strict professional privacy ob
served in personal consultations. Ad-
dress Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting
physician to the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y.
" KonEWARNED FOREARMED."
That saying has a most forceful appli
cation to matters relating to disease and
health. To be forewarned against dis
ease, to know its cause and its cure, is to x
arm the health beforehand against many
maladies. Dr. Pierce's Common Sense
Medical Adviser is a book of forewarn
ing. It teaches how to protect and pre
serve the health. This valuable work,
containing iooS large pages and over
700 illustrations, is sentree on receipt
of stamps to pay expense of mailing
only. Send 31 one-cent stsmps for the
cloth-bound olume, or only 21 stamps
for the book in p.iper-co crs. Address
