Dr. GXISSNKR'S Celebrated Menstrual Pills
have been long and widely known as invati
ably certain in removing tiny stoppage, irreg
ularity, or suppression ol the menses.
In the female hospitals in Vienna, Paris,
and Betlui, Ibey have entirely superseded the
use of all other remedies; because, where a
core ia attainable by medicinal agencies,
they are certain of success. Their astonish
ing efficacy would be almost incredible, il
not vouched for by indubitable testimony, in
numerous instances producing returns of the
monthly period alter all hope had been aban
doned.
In every case, from whatevercause the ob
struction may arise, as also ro prevent preg
nancy where Ine health wilt not admit ot in
crease of family, they are elways efficient;
for which reason they most not be used du
ring pregnancy, though always mild, healthy,
aale and ceuain in their effects.
Married ladies will find particular instruc
tions in the directions, in which are slated
the various symptoms by which the cause ol
the suppression may be determined.
