A Letter to Dr. Pierce
is the First Step to
Health for Weak
and Sick Women.
‘W
Q-231°;
Sick women are invited to con-
sult Dr. Pierce. by letter, free, and
under seal of the strictest privacy.
In a little over thirty years of prac-
tice as chief consulting physician
to tlic Invalids’ Hotel and Stir-
gical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y.,
Dr, Pierce, assisted by his staff of
nearly a score of physicians, has
treated and cured over half a mil-
lion women. Address Dr. R. V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
Offers of “free medical advice”
made in imitation of Dr. Pierce’s i
offer of free corzsullalion by letter
are advertised by persons who are
not physicians, and are not quali- 1
fied to give medical advice. Every
woman should consult her own
safety by careful inquiry into the
genuineness of isuch offers.
There is no offer similar to Dr.
Pierce’s, which. has behind it an
institution of national note, such
as the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., with its
staff of nearly a score of phy-
sicians, presided over by a special-
ist of Dr. Pierce’s experience and
success, in the treatment and cure
of diseases peculiar to women.
How Diller Women Have.
` Boon Gurod.
“I suffered untold misery for many
years with uteriiic trouble,” writes Mrs.
Mary E. W'ilcox, of Emo (Rainy River),
Algoma C0., Ont., “until I commenced `
taking Dr. I’ierce's good medicine and
used the local trczitnieut as advised. I
itooli two bdttles of ‘Favorite Prescrip
ltion’ and two of ‘ Golden Medical Dis-
coverv.’ I also sent for one box of 'our
_ )
l'Antiscptic and Healing Suppositories.’
[have only used two and that was two
lnionths ago. I would advise every woman
iwho suffers from ulceration ofthe uterus
iand piles to use Dr. Picrce’s» Fav-on'te
iPrescription and ‘Golden Medical Dis-
§covcry.’ They are the best medicines in
§the world. Also write to Dr. Pierce for
lliis fatherly advice. I have felt better
lin these past seven months than I have
éfor years. Every month I used_to have i
to go to bed and have liot poulticcs and
take lciudanum to ease the pain. I doii`t
go to bed now nor do I take laudaiiuui."
"I have used your medicine as you
directed,” writes Mrs. Caroline Hammac,
of Hammac, Escambia Co., Ala. “I have
only used one bottle of Dr. Pierce`s Fa-
vorite Prescription and in connection I
used one bottle of ‘ Golden Medical Dis-
covery.’ Six doses a day, three of each,
and sometimes I used thc tablets as you
directed. I feel well. I am hard at work
and have been for some time. I had been
under a good doctor five years for this
same disease and you see how quick your
medicine cured nic.”
“About a year ago I had a mishap
which left me in very poor iicziltli for
some time afterward,” writes Mrs. Ccnc
Johnson, of Gordon, Sheridan Co.. _\`cbr.
“I employed a local doctor but get only
teiriporziry relief, until I coiiiiiicizccd

The cast of mind of Alfred G. Harms-
Worth may bojudged from his' versatile
conversations, which likewise indicate
many ofthe reasons why he has been en-
abled to astonish the world by the rapid-
ity of his rise. It is only 15 years since
this young man-he is now barely 35 years
old-was wandering about London eagerly
sannfnz the world ahead of him for
some avenue of advancement.
Young Harmsworth, eagerly looking
for an opportunity for himself, sawvthat
ism that had existed in England at the
time of the Crimean war. But the Eng~
lish people had moved far ahead. Not
governments. During all this time the
typical London newspaper continued day
after day to print long, dull, heavy
Columns of reports of primary proceedings
small. The weekly periodicals of the
time were either vicious sheets, given
over to reporting crimes, or else academic
publicitions of the high literary class.

WHY CROUP IS FATAL.
When croup attacks your child you
must be ready for it. It comes _as§:ac- `
companiment to an ordinary cough. or it
may attack without warning. All ills of
children develop quickly. and when any
kind of cough appears there should be
something at hand to stop it with PTO'
ptness. Many: a child has choked to
death with croup because the right re-
medy was not convenient. Everyone
should know that the right safeguard for
a child’s or any cdugh is Adamson’e Bot-
anic Gough Balsam. With this soothin8
compound in the house, croup `_is always
easily checked and relieved.
To give a child a “cough mixture” con-
ter, yet mest preparations contain some-
thing of this kind. Adamson's Botanic
Balsam in prepared from the purest ex-
tracts of barks and roots and gums of
trees, and is health-gvirvmg in _every com-
ponent part of it. herever it touches
an inflamed surface, it heels and soothes
it. Nothing ever compounded for cough
is so harmless and nothing so emcacious.
Adamson’s Baisam is an old remedy and
it his never lost a friend through failure
to help. Keep it in the house. Try it on
your own cough and do your child a good 1
turn by being ready for any emergency. ;
