If there is anything a nervous woraau tlreiulft it is tlie night which ought -to be so welcome as the bringer of rest and refreshing. Ilor very ilread increases her nervousness, and the make her nleepless. cxerciso of will-power the night. When her of some perilous presence in the room. When sho lies ': with wide open eyes the gloom seems peopled with uliad- j owy phantoms, that grow and melt away before her i affrighted gaze. Then, perhaps, she Bprings from the bed and lights the gas or a lamp, feeling that, she must have the companionship of light. And ever, from lime to time, sho rises to see what, hour it is, and wonders to find it is but fifteen minutes instead of an hour since she last looked at the clock. One of the remarkable features about such a condition is that so few women connect it, with its common cause womanly disease. They try all kinds of sedatives for their nerves. They tako " sleeping powders " arid headache pow ders and all sorts of drugs which at tho beat can only numb the nerves and stupify tho brain for a time. The real need of nervous, Hlceplcss women is a cure of womanly diseases. Then with qntted nerves natural, refreshing sleep will come again. Nervous and sleepless women bear glad and grateful witness to tho wonderful cures effected by the ubo of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Even when tho nervotiM con dition had reached the most distressing stage, and all other medicines and means of euro had failed, Dr. Pierce's Favorito Prescription has effected a perfect and permanent cure. "It is with pleasure tht I urite to let yon know the great benefit I have received from your medicines, and by following your advice regarding self-tiealment at home," writes Mrs. Selaia Rrickson, of 496 Rice Street, St. Paul, Minn. "You fciudly advised rue to take Ur. Pierce's I'avorite Prescription and ' Golden Medical Discovery and 'Pleasant Pellets.' When I first wrote you I had been to three different doctujrs, and two of them said I would never get better with out going to the hospital for au operation. I just sat down and cried, and said, ' If I die, I will die at home with my two dear little ones.' I had a mishap in May last and was weak all summer. Was notable fit' . to do anything. If I would get up and walk tothe kitchen and I would have to lie in bed for a day or sometimes two days. August I picked up one of Dr. Pierce's jniuiplets and read of his wonderful work. I wrote to him for information and received au answer within five days from the day I wrote, advising me to try his medicines Now I have used sir bottles of his ' Favorite Prescrip tion' and six of the 'Golden Medical Discovery,' and the result is just wonderful. I did not tell the doctors -what I was taking. I have not heen to any physician since the day I received the first letter from Dr. Pierce, ami I feel as good as I ever did before I had the mishap. I was so tirii'ous I had to have some one by my side all the time, even in day time, and I could hardly eat anything. I took treatment from a doctor twice a week, and every time I would go there I felt so sick, but since I quit all the doctors and began taking jour medicine I gamed right along. I have gained (orty pounds within the last four months. I weighed 125 when I began taking your medicines (in August), and now I am up to my usual weight 165. I cannot thank jou enough for your wonderful medicines, and I wish you every success in the treatment of other cases as you have had in mine. When I thinl: what I suffered last summer it seems now like a dreatu, for to-day I am as well and feci as good as ever."' "My wife was sick for over eight years,'' writes Albert II. Futlc, lisci., of Altnmont, Grundy Co., Tenn. "She had uterine disease aiid was treated by two physicians and got no relief. At last I read in one of your Memorandum Books which you sent me, about I)r. Pierce's medicines, and we decided to try his ' I'avorite Prescription.' I sent to the drug store and got one bottle, and the first daK gave ease and sleep. She had not slept any for three nights. Being sure that it would cure her, I sent for five more bottles, and when she had taken the sixth bottle she was hound and well." ' These are not exceptional cures. Those letters are but two out of thousands written by women who found health through the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorito Prescription. This great medicine for women establishes regularity, dries debili tating drains, hcah inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. Tfc cures nervousness, sleeplessness, backache, headache, and othor consequences of womanly disease. " Favorito Prescription " is purely a vegetablo preparation containing no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine, nor any other narcotic. It can not disagreo with the weakest constitution. Mrs. Eriekson, in her letter printed above, lefers gratefully to correspondence with Dr. Pierce and advice received from him. Dr. Pierce invites sick and ailing women to consult him by letter, free. All correspondence is held in sacred secrecy and the written confidences of women aro guarded by strict professional privacy. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
