The demand for Dr. Bradfleld’s Fe
male Regulator is beyond precedent in
tho annals of popular remedies. Orders
come in so thick and fast that the Propri
*tor has, heretofore, been unable to fill
them ail. He is happy to state that ar
i rangeinents are now complete by which
! li* is prepared to manufacture Female
| Regulator on a scale equal te the emer
gency, and the public may feel assured
that their wants may now be supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy, in daily practice, ali over
Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf
fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable medi
cine is prepared by L. il. Bradfiehl, Drug
gist. Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
bottle by druggists throughout America.

Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, und forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any article we
sell. We have been selling it since 1808,
and witnessed many remarkable cures U>
it Among others, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
until she was twenty-six years old, when
she was married. Her husband lived two
years and died. She continued in bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to be. A few months
after the death of her husband she saw
your advertisement, and came to our
store and bought a bottle of your Regula
tor from us. and took it according to di
rections. It lias cured her sound and
well, brought her regular monthly peri
ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow—with tho use of but two bot
tles of your Regulator, costing her only
throe dollars, when she had tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without anv benefit. Wishing you
great success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
