BY DOCTOR CORNELL Backache is perhaps the most common ailment from which women suffer. Rarely ' do you find anybody free from it. Some times the cause is obscure, but Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., a high medical authority, says the cause is very often a form ol catarrh that settles in the delicate mcra branes of the feminine organs. When , these organs are inflamed, the first symp ' tom is backache, accompanied by bearing ] down sensations, weakness, unhealthy dis-, charges, irregularity, painful periods, irri- , tation, headache and a general run-down I condition. Any woman in this condition i is to be pitied, but pity does not cure. The trouble calls for Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, which is a separate and dis tinct medicine for women. It is made of , roots and herbs put up without alcohol ol ’ opiate of any kind, for Dr. Pierce uses nothing else in his prescription. Favorite Prescription is a natural remedy for wo men, for the vegetable growths of which it is made seem to have been intended by Nature for that very purpose. Thousands of girls and women, young and old, have taken it, and thousands have written grateful letters to Dr. Pierce saying it made them well. In taking Favorite Pre scription, it is reassuring to know that it goes straight to the cause of the trouble. There is but one way to overcome sickness, and that is to overcome the cause. That is precisely what Favorite Prescription is intended to do. Send 10c for trial pkg. of Tablets. Address Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.
