Tho woman who suffera in
find tho spring season especially trying. All tho year round oho endures backache,
headache, nervousness, female weakness and other-ills, yet manages to kcop np. Bnt
spring with-its languor is apt to add tho last Btraw to tho burden, and tho general
Cihysical debility added to the womanly weakness produces a break-down of the
calth. Spring is a trying season to all weak women, and not seldom a fatal season
to those whose chronio ailments mako thom an easy prey to disease.
If womanly suffering were a necessity; if no healing were offered for diseases
which -affiiot the majority of women the world over.'snch a faot would discredit all
tho boasted medical advancement of tho twentieth century. In spite of tho fact
that a large number of weak and siok women accept their condition as being beyond
the reach of medicine; and although local physioians often pronounoe womanly dis
eases incurable which will not yield to their own treatment, it is a positive truth that
tho majority of women who suffer from diseases peculiar to their sex pan be com
pletely oured and restored to robnst health.
Nothing is more certain than that Dr. Piorce's Favorite Prescription euros wom
anly diseases. It cures ninety-eight out of every hundred Avomcn who give it a fair
and faithful trial. That means that of every hundrod women who suffer from womanly
diseases there are only two who cannot be perfectly curod by tho use of Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. Even tho two nor cent, of women who cannot be completely
ctirodcan bo greatly benefited
of pain and a great increase of
acrs lor wbk hiju sick women,
cases, wnen luey nave been pronounced incurable by local physicians.
"I received both of vottr letters.' writes Mrs. Rvn VWlrW. nf ritilrls. TMsnwCn.. Mlrh.
"Iwas so weak I did not have strength
I sit up very long. There was a sore

scription ' and Golden Medical Discovery ' alternately, and when I had the two bottles half
taken I was much improved. I took four bottles, and to-day am just as well and strong as any.
body could ask to be. My husband says ' Dr. Pierce's medicines have been worth one Hundred
dollars to us.' We feel that we cannot say enough for the good I have received from your med
icines. I thank you for your kind and quick replies to my letters."
There is only one way in which the truth of tho claims made for Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Proscription can be proven for the individual woman and that is by giving this
medicine a fair and faithful trial. It has cured so many women of womanly diseases
whom no other medicine could cure. It has oured so many chrouie and complicated
cases, and cured so often when many physicians had pronounced the disease incur
able, that until a woman has tried " 1' avo'rite Prescription " and found it to fail, there
n hope for her, no matter of how long standing the disease may be or how many other
medicines she may have nscd in a vain attempt to find a cure for womanly diseases.
The strengthening properties possessed by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
make it the best tonic uud nervine for weak, run-down, nervous women, and an ideal
medicine for the languor and debility of the spring season. "Favorite Prescription"
atablishes regularity, dries enfeeblins; drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and
cures femae weakness. It cures headache, backache, .nervousness, sleeplessness, loss of appetite and
other ills from whioh women suffer. It makes weak women strong and sick women well.
"I was all run-down ; had no strength ; had sharp darting pains all through me : head and back ached every
day," writes Mrs. Frank Caswell, of Salamanca, N. Y. "I'wns also troubled with a distressed feeling in the stom
ach and pain in front of the hip bones. I had a severe cough and it nearly killed me to draw a long breath, I was
so sore through my lungs.
" I wrote to Dr. Pierce telling my symptoms as near as 1 could. He sent me a very kind letter advising me to
try his medicines which X did, and before T had token them a week I was decidedly better. I took two bottles of
the ' Favorite Prescription ' and two of the ' Golden Medical Discovery,' and am sure I never felt better in my life
than when I quit taking them."
Sick women, especially those suffering from diseases of long standing, are invited to consult Dt
Pierce by letter, frit. All correspondence is held as btrictly private and sacredly confidential. Ad
dregs Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
The offer of free consultation by letter made by Dr. R V. Pierce is not to be confused with offers
of " free medical advice " made by irresponsible people who having neither medical education, medical
knowledge or medical experience are disqualified professionally and legally from the practise of
medicine.
In a little more than thirty years, Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physioian to the Invalids
Hotel nnd Surgical Institute, Buffalo, JST. Y., assisted by his staff of nearly a score of physioians has
treated and cured hundreds of thousands of weak and sick women. Thousands of these women have
expressed their gratitude for the advice ot Dr. Pierce which saves them from the indelicate question
ings, offensive examinations and obnoxious local treatments deemed necessary by many practitioners.
Tho dealer who offers a substitute tor " Favorite Prescription" does ho to gain the little more
profit paid on the sale of less meritorious medicines. His profit is your loss.
