The Book of Life.
There are many things
in the great boo& of life
that everj woman ought
to know and that few
women do know.
Every woman in the
world ought to know all
about her own phsical
make-up. She should
have a copy of Doctor
Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser.
It is a handsomely illustrated xolumc of a
thousand pages, several chapters of which
are devoted to the reproductive physiology
of womem It is written in plain language,
and contains over three hundred illustra
tions and colored plates. It is now offered,
paper-bound, absolutely free to any woman
who will send twenty-one cents in one-cent
6tamps to cover the cost of mailing only to
Dr. R. V. Pierce Buffalo, N. Y. If hand
some, substantial, French cloth binding is
desired, send ten cents extra, thirty -one
cents in all. A w oman ought to know the
vital importance of health. She ought to
know that nothing can make her so miser
able, or so useless in the w orld, as disease
and weakness of the organs distinctly femi
nine. She ought to know that this disease
and weakness can be prevented and can be
cured bv the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. There are three times in a
woman's life when this great remedy reaches
Its best usefulness when the girl becomes
a woman when the woman becomes a
mother and when the capacity for mother
hood ceases. At these times the import
ance of a perfectly healthy condition of her
system is of the greatest importance. " The
Favorite Prescription " is a purifying, cura
tive, tonic, which works directly on one
set of organs, and on no other. It cures
when doctors fail, and it cures without
the humiliating examinations and local
treatment, so invariably insisted upon by
phjsicians. It will cure any case of so
called "female complaint." It soothes the
nerves, makes the appetite and digestion
good, and brings restful, refreshing sleep.
