Only anch a title is becoming too common. The treatment of many thousands of cases of those chronic weaknesses aud distressing ailments peculiar to females, at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., has afforded a vast experience In nicely adapt ing and thoroughly testing remedies for the cure of woman’s peculiar maladies. Dr. Dlcrce’s Favorite Prescription is the outgrowth, or result, of this great and valuable experience. Thousands of testimo nials, received from patients and from physi cians who have tested it in the more aggra vated and obstinate cases which had baffled their skill, prove it to be the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of suffering women. It is not recommended as a ‘cure-all,” but as a most perfect Specific for woman's peculiar ailments. As a powerful, invigorating tonic, it imparts strength to tiie whole system, and to the womb and its appendages in {'articular. For overworked, “worn-out,” ‘run-down,” debilitated teachers, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, “shop-girls,” house keepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women generally, l)r. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the greatest earthly boon, being unequaled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic. As a soothing and strengthening nervine, “Favorite Prescription” is une qualed and is invaluable in allaying and sub duing nervous excitability, irritability, ex haustion, prostration, hysteria, spasm’s and other distressing, nervous symptoms com monly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the womb. It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and de spondency. Dr. Dfcrce’s Favorite Prescription is a legitimate medicine, carefully compounded by an experienced and skillful physician, and adapted to woman’s delicate organization. It is purely vegetable in its composition and perfectly harmless in its effects in any condition ot the system. For morning sickness, or nausea, from whatever cause arising, weak stomach, indigestion, dys pepsia and kindred symptoms, its use, in small doses, will prove very beneficial. “Favorite Prescription” is a posi tive cure for the most complicated and ob stinate cases of leueorrhea, excessive flowing, painful menstruation, unnatural suppressions, prolapsus, or falling of the womb, weak back, ‘‘female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, hearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the womb, in flammation, pain and tenderness in ovaries, accompanied with “ internal heat.” As a regulator and promoter of func tional action, at that critical period of change from girlhood to womanhood, “Favorite Pre scription ” is a perfectly safe remedial agent, and can produce only good results. It is equally efficacious and valuable in its effects when taken for those disorders and derange ments incident to that later and most critical period, known as “ The Uhange of Life.” “Favorite Prescription,” when taken in connection with the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discover}-, and small laxative doses of Dr. Pierce’s Purgative Pellets (Little Liver Pills), cures Liver. Kidney and Bladder diseases. Their combined use also removes blood taints, and abolishes cancerous and scrofulous humors from the system. “Favorite Prescription” is the only medicine for women, sold by druggists, under a positive guarantee, from the manu facturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money will be refunded.

Have von tried various remedies, numbers of physicians? You have taken Blue Pill, Calomel, Arsenic, etc. If a woman, you have been exposed to numbers of examinations and maDlnulations, bave been cauterized, packed and irrigated all without relief. If a yonng man you have been swin dled by free prescriptions, never failing remedies tbat cure to a few days, etc. But in spite of all the knowledge tbat has accumulated for ages ln the regular profession, you are still sick. You have bscome despondent, and despaired ot ever getting relief. In fact yon bave almost made up your mind that yon will never get well, vvny is this? Simply because you have never had tbe right medicine. Instead ot medicines io assist nature you have beeu taking remedies (?) tbat directly oppose the workings of nature. Failing with the doctors, you bave fallen npon the patent medicines, taking into your system something you know noth ing of, something that tbe very maker himself knows nothing ot as to Its properties, uses, etc. You take something of which you know nothing, for a disease of which you know even less. To this class and to all the afflicted of long or short stand ing, I address myself. I propose to cure you if your disease is curable, and If you are too far goDe for a perfect cure, I can al least give you relief Nine-tenths ot tbe medicines I use are nature’s own remedies, viz: vegetable productions. I give no heavy sickening doses, but something generally pleasant and Invigorating. My patients gain trom 5 to 15 pounds per month, until perfect health ts at tained. This is no fancy picture, but reality. I am more convinced every day of the superiority ot my s; stem of practice over the routine practice tbat gives calomel, morphine, dover’s powder, arsenic, a little bitter tonic and much whisky, wine and gin repeated day,after day, “secumdsm artem.” Tbe following are among the diseases I successfully treat: Asthma, Cancer. Consumption, Catarrh, Bronchitis, disaeses of the Liver, Bowels and Spleen, diseases of the Kidneys, Dropsy, Gravel, every form of Ulceration Internal or external, Tumors, Ulcerated or Sore Legs, Fistulas, White Swelling, Worms, Epilepsy, Spasms or Fits, of all kinds, Neu ralgia, Deafness, Sore or Inflamed Eyes, Nervous and General Debility, Sterility, Paralysis, Spinal diseases, Spermatorrroea, Tetter, 8kln diseases, Scrofula.

In fact, no matter what the oisease write me tally and eqnfidentially; your confidence will not be betrayed. I take yonr case, I treat yon that ts my business, and I propose to stick strictly to bnsiness. I do not make sick to make well, nei ther do I starve you to cure you. T Bear to mind 1 prepare my own medicines. I know Just what I give yon. No second party mixes drugs good, bad or indifferent for you to take while yon are under my treatment.
