the ' Pleasant Pellets ' as you advised, for conges

How many a weak, nervous
woman finds that wish rising
involuntarily to her lips daily.
Sho sees friends and acquaint
ances entorinc' into sports and
cames, or cniovinc social pleasures
from which she is shut out by weak
ness and sickness, and she says with
a sigh of envy and regret, " I wish
I were well." Wishing will not make any
woman well, but from wishing one may pass
to willing, and directly a woman wills to bo
Avell she looks for tho means by Avhich health
may bo attained.
When a sick woman asks "How can I
regain my health?" the next question she will
ask is "How havo other sick women been
mado healthy?" and to that question there
is one unanimous answer from hundreds of
thousands of healthy, happy women : " Wo
were weak and were made strong, wc were
sick and were mado well by Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription." The merit of this
medicino rests entirely upon its cures of
womanly diseases. It has cured and is curing
every form of womanly diseases curable by
medicine ; and very often it cures forms of
womanly disease which local physicians pro
nounce incurable except by a surgical opera
tion. It was so in tho ease of Miss Itatz. It
has been so in a reat many other cases.
"Favorite Prescription" cures in ninety-eight
ot cases, or in other terms, it cures

per cent, ot cases, or
forty-nine out of,fifty women who give it a
fair and faithful trial.
It would bo worso than foolish to claim for "Favorite Prescription" such
power to cure if that claim could not be supported by the living witnesses,
the women who havo been cured. The number of these witnesses is legion.
There are women among this great army of the eurcd who were sufferers
from irregularity dreading each recurring month because it brought days of
misery and prostration. To-day they aro in the full enjoyment of health.
There are other women who were suffering from weakening drains ; others
still who writhed, scorched by the fire of inflammation, felt the pains of ulcera
tion 3nd knew the possibilities of suffering expressed in that familiar term,
female weakness. To-day they aro enjoying perfect womanly health. No
more bdaring-down pains. No more headache, backache, nervousness and
sleeplessness. They aro perfectly and permanently cured by the use of
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Can any woman afford o neglect such a means of euro for womanly dis
eases? If you are sick; if you suffer from irregularity unhealthy drains,
inflammation, ulceration or female weakness, give " Favorito Prescription"
a fair trial. There is only one chance in fifty that you fail of a complete
cure. There is no chance that you fail of benefit, for "Favorite Prescrip
tion " always helps, and almost always cures.
Weak and sick women aro invited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, free.
All correspondence is held as strictly private and sacredly confidential.

remarkable cures of other women, do not accept an unproved substitute.
