MXKmi TO EVERYSENSIBLE WOMAN. I
ITVf #tt*ALR9 BUFFER IS HEALTH.
No woman of delicacy is willing to dlacloae the peon- r
lar ailments Incident to her aex, even to ft moat InUinnte i

This modesty nnd delicacy 1B implanted by nature,
nnd neither should uor r.coa be mojootftd to the rudo
shook* Inevitable in making knowu to the other #ex
those nilinentbeJongim? exclusively to the tVmule.
Except In extreme cneee, her eenalttven— will sacri
fice her health rather than hex delicacy.
The consequences ore serious, lamentable, and llfo
lonor.
Thus what at first could bavo been easly remedied,
or iierhnn* hotter still, not Incurred, become* a coim.ll- (
cation or di*ense*, not only ruining the henllh of tho
mother, and euiMMering her days by sickness nnd stif- •

A standard work of established reputation, found
darscd In the Catalogues of tho gre.it Trade Sales In
New York, Fhllndtlphin, and other cities, nnd Bold by
•he principal booksellers in tho United States. It was
nrst published in 1847, fiuco which time '
FIVE HUNCHED THOUSAND COPIES
have been sold, of which there were upwards of
O.NE HUNDRED THOUSAND SENT BY MAIL :

BOOK FOB. KVERY FE9IALE, j
the author having devoted, nnd still devotes, his exclu- '
alvo attention to tho treatment of complaints peculiar to 1
females, In resm-ct to which ho is yearly consulted by (
thousands, both in person and by letter. ,
Here every woman can discover, by comparing her
own symptoms with thone desorihed, the nature, charac
ter, causes of, and tho pro[er remedies for her com- ,
plaint*.
The wife about Becoming a mother has often need of I
Instruction and advice of the utmost importance to her j
future health, will find such Instruction und advice, and .
also explain many symptom# which otherwise would I
occasion anxiety or alarm, a* all tho peculiarities Inci
dent to her situation are described.
It Is of coarse impracticable to convey fully tl\ va
rious subjects heated of, a* they are of a nature strictly
intended for the married or those contemplating mnr
ringe. Tho revelations contained in its pages have
proved u b!e sing to thousand*, as the lnnamorahlo let

Extract qf a letter from a gentleman in Dayton, Ohio,
Dai-ton, May 1, LFC47.
Dr. A .If. Mauriccau: J
M My wife has been percept!uly sinking for some three (
year* or more, in consequence or her great anguish and
sulleriug mm# months lieforo and during eoni.noment
every t-ucces*lve one more and thore debilitated ami |
prostrated her, putting her lifo in imminent danger, and
which was on the last occus . r impaired of. J *uppotM'd
that this stato f things was inevitable, and resigned
Otyseif to meet tho worst. At this time (now nbout two
mouths), 1 heard your lKok highly spoken of, a* con- 1
taintng some matter* re iching my case. On Its receipt
.and perusal, I cannot express to you the relief it afforded ,
my distressed mind, and the joy its page* imparted to
my wiAs, on learning that the great discovery of M. M.
Dosoniuaux provided a remedy. It opened a rmspect i
to IUO which I little conceived was possible. No pecu
niary coiiMideration can ever repay the obligations I an)
under to you, for having been ti.e luean* of luipnrtir.g to
i u* tbo mattirs contained in "The Married Woman'#
Private Medicul Companion." But for this, ore another
y< ar would have )ni**ed over my head, in all human
prolmbili.y ray wife would have been in her grave and
my children left motherless."
j In consequence of tho universal popularity of tbo
work, iis evidenced by Us extraordinary sale, various im- .
I positions liavo been a;tempted, ns well on book -Hers as
