Womanhood and childhood fleet!”
is a type of thousands of younir girls who
are emerging from the chrysalis Mage of their
existence, as they enter upon their “feens.”
Nervous, excitable, irritable, stirred by
strange, unknowable forces within them,
each a mystery unto herself, our girls need
the tcndcrcst care, the most loving, patient
oversight, and the aid of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, to safely carry them through
this critical period, during which, in too
many lives, alas, are sown the seeds of dis
tressing forms of diseases peculiar to the
female sex. But this boon to womankind
will prevent all such diseases, or cure them
if they have already seized a victim. Woman
owes it to herself, to her family, and to her
social station, to Ik- well and strong. Let
her then not neglect the sure means of cure.
“Favorite Prescription ” is a legitimate medi
cine. 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 of the system.
