The weak spot.
If.you are sitting in a restaurant where
waitresses arp in attendanee, you will
note now and again some young woman
put her hand to her back, and straighten
herself up, while her lips are tightened
as if by pain. It’s backache. Yet all
day long she must
be on her feet,
lifting, carrying,
hurrying.
That weak spot,
the back, can be
made strong by
the use of Doctor
Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription. It
cures the womanly
diseases which
cause headache,
backache, side
ache, nervousness
and sleeplessness.
It makes weak
women strong
and sick women
well.
” Favorite Pre
scription ” contains
no alcohol, and is
absolutely free
from opium, co
caine and all other
narcotics.
"I wrote you for
advice February 4th,
1896,” writes Mrs.
Loma Halstead, of Claremore, Cherokee Nat.,
lud. Ty. " I was racking with pain from the
back of my head down to my heels. Had
hemorrhage for weeks at a time, and was un
able to sit up for ten minutes at a time. You
answered my letter, advised me to use vour
valuable medicines, viz.. Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. ‘Golden Medical Discovery,’ and
‘Pleasant Pellets,’’also gave advice about injec
tions, baths and diet. To my surprise, in four
mouths from the time I began your treatment I
was a well woman, and have not had the back,
ache since, and now I put in sixteen hours a
day at hard work.”
