NOTHINÖ TÖ CONCEALDR. PIERCE TAKES THB PUB«

LIC INTO HIS PULLCONFIDENCE.

He Olvca the Ingredient« of (heFamily Medicine· which haveMad· Hie Nam· a House.,

bold Word In Count¬ies· Home·.

With all the recent talk about patentmedicines and tho determined effort incertain quarters to cost discredit uponall household remedies which come underthat head, the (act remains that some ofthese medicines are so firmly establishedin popular favor and confidence, haveso proved their worth and value, thatall the denunciations of bigots cannotdestroy the people's faith in them.One of the best known of these reme¬

dies is Dr. Prancs's Favorite ?pß-scRiPTiON, a medicine which for yearshas been accepted by the people ne astandard preparation for the cure ofthose ailments to which women alonoaro subject and which has proved to boa certain cure in nine cases out of tenand a sure relief in the other one. Fortyyears of lise by countlcsB numbers of.intelligent women is sufficient to indi¬cate wlint the Favorite Phesctuftionhas done and is doing for those womenwho suffer from tho dragging pains.from that peculiar lassitude.from anyof the utenne derangements which naptho life and strength of women, making:them old and worn when they should beand could be young and fresh and vig¬orous and lovely," wlien life should haveand could liave all the charms thatNature intended It ehould havo.

Dit. Piercb's Favoiutï! Prkschi*-«ON has wrought this mighty change!for thousands upon thousands of womenin the last forty years and is working itsmiracle of cures to-day. Before Dr. Pierceconceived the idea of placing this medi¬cine within tbe easy reach of every suffer¬ingwoman he had demonstrated its valuein his large private practice as a special¬ist in women's diseases. He knew whatIt would do for women by actual test.He is a physician of renown, a man ofhonor, a former member of Congress,one who is highly esteemed in his-com¬munity. *lhe tnougnt ot.preying uponthe sufferings of his fellows or of delud¬ing them into using a worthless nostrumis as repugnant to him as it can possi¬bly be to any self-constituted guardianof the physical well-being of the nation.

There is nothing to conceal about theFavorite Prescription. It is an ab¬solutely pure medicine.made of rootsand herb«, Nature's own restoratives,compounded after a formula concerningwhich there can bo no question, byskilled chemists and by thoroughlyscientific processes. Dr. Pierce is per¬fectly willing to let every one know thathis Favorite Prescription containsBlue Cohosh (Caulophyllwn Thalidroi~dea), Block Cohosh (Cimicifuga Race¬mosa), Lady's 81ipper (CwripediumPubeicen») and Golden Seal {Hydrasti»Canademit). Every doctor knows thatsuch a prescription is beneficial in thediseases of women and when properlycompounded is certain to effect a cure in,practically aO. cases when given a fairtrial. Hereafter every bottle of theFavorite'Prescription which leavesDr. Pierce's immense laboratories in

rj Buffalo, N.-Y., will plainlytell of what.the medicine is composed.. Thus Dr.Pierce will once more provo; to' theworld his own confidence in the rem-

edy which Jot\ forty years has bornehis name 'sind, which is known allthrough the" United States and Canada,England, AHistralia, and in parts ofSouth America, as a sovereign curefor those 'diseases which, unchecked,make our women old before their time.

It will be noticed ttiat there is noalcohol in the Favorite Prescription,A great hue and cry has been raisedbecause some patent medicines containalcohoL Dr. Pierce never believed inusing alcohol in the preparation of hisfamous household remedies. For it, hosubstituted^chemically pure glycerine,which has »wonderful properties for ex¬

tracting the medicinal principles ofroots and herbs and barks and preserv¬ing them at their full strength, withoutany deleterious effect whatever.Your druggist sells the Favorite

Prescription and. also that famousalterative and blood purifier, tho GoldenMedical Discovert. Write to Dr.Pierce about your case. He is a well-qualified physician and will treat yourease as confidential and without chargefor correspondence. Address him at '

the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti¬tute, Buffalo, N. Y., of which he isChief Consulting Rnrjjcon.
