crets of guiylt or shame, but the secrets of

i suffering, and they have been confided

to Dr. R. V. Pierce in the hope and ex- pectation of advice and help._ That few

of these women have been di?ppomted in their expectations is prov by the fact that ninety-eight per cent. of all women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the cases

only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than half-a-mil- lion women, in a practice of over thirty years, it is phenomenal, and entitles Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, and the honor paid him by the profession as the first of specialists in the treatment of women’s diseases.

Every sick woman may consult Dr.

Pierce by letter, absolutely without charge. Every woman’s letter which contains her secret remains her secret. It is read in private, answered in private, ‘~ and its contents guarded as a sacred con- iidence. That no third party should enter into this secret, all replies are mailed,
