It needs no argument to prove that tho strength tho mother Drives to tho child Sho bears 'and nnnrishnn mimf. fin ranlflred if eho is to presorvo mam mai mo moiuer wno ocgins lite for two must havo health for two Tho problem of motherhood is how to offset tho strain and drain of maternity, and be the healthy mother of healthy children. . This problem is solved for those who tiso Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription as a preparation for maternity, and as a tonic and nervine to promote a quick recovery. "Favorite Prescription" tranquilizeo the nerves, encour ages tho appetite and induces refreshing aleep. It gives groat muscular strength and elasticity, making tile baby's advent practically painless. "I am thankful to the friend who first recommended your medi cine," writes Mrs. Annie M. Brook, of Smithfield, Fayette Co., Pa. "We have a twelve-pound baby, three weeks old. I took three bot tles of 'Favorite Prescription 'before baby came, and the time was only one hour and a half. Have had five children, and before tbio always had a severe, '.time, lasting two or three days, and never was able to do any work for about two months afterward. Now I am doing all the work for four-children. My ftieadssay I look better now than ever befdrfc. We tbld one of v sisters to take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which sue did, and when, her child was born the time of snffering was veryt. abort. She has better health now than since her'mamae, .soms'tw years ago. We can not praise Dr. Pierce's' medicines enough. I thank you for the Kina aavice you gve waen j. wrote to you. wuenever I see other women suffering' I tell" them about your wonder ful medicines." Many women mate a very slow recovery after maternity. In spite of all that can bo dono the strength does not como back. In suoh circumstances the remarkable tonic effects of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription aTe perfectly proved. Recovery is qniok and prompt and with it comes a strength unknown before. This is tho common experience of mothers who use " Favorite PrescriDtion." whioh is not a mere temporary tonic but nursing mothers it excels all malt beverages and stimulants. increasing tho flow of the nutritive secretions and giving tho mother strength to give her child. My baby came the latter part of October, and is a fine boy; weight about nine pounds," writes Mrs. Annie E. Hagerman, of West Phila delphia Street (Eberton), York, Pa. "Am sure he would not be what he is had it not been for your ' Favorite Prescription. He really is a very strong child. I have been feeling fine since taking your medicine. Have not the pain around my heart, and nerves have been a great deal better. Uterine trouble was much better all the time I was taking your medicine. I cannot recommend it too highly. Have told my frieiub about it, and one of them said she was going to write to you at once. I took twelve bottles before baby was born and two afterward." Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a reliable woman's medicine. It is a purely vegetable preparation and contains no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine nor any other narootic. It caunot disagree with tho weakest constitution. "Favorite Prescrip tion" perfectly and permanently ourei the diseases which weaken women. It establishes regularity, dries enfeebling drains, heab inflammation and ulceration and cores female weakness. Sick women are invited to consult Dr. Pierce by letter free.
