"In my opinion," writes Mrs.-Phillip Collins, of Martendale, Que., "there is no medicine can equal Baby's Own Tablets. Before I began the use of the Tablets my baby cried all the time with wind colic and got little or no sleep, and I was nearly worn out myself. Soon after giving baby the Tablets the trouble disappeared, and sound natural sleep returned. I have also proved the Tablets a cure for hives, und a great relief when baby is teething. I would not feel that my children were safe if T did not have a box of the Tablets in the house." *jjl mothers who have used Baby's Own Tablets speak just as highly of them as does Mrs. Collins. The Tablets cure all the little ills from which infants and young children suffer, and the mother has a solemn assurance that this medicine contains neither opiate or any harmful drug.

But how soon, in many cases, the wife loses the advantage and fades in face and fails in flesh, while her husband grows even more rugged and robust. The*e is one chief cause for this wifely failure and that is, the failure of the womanly health. When there is irregularity or an unhealthy drain, inflammation, ulceration or female weakness, the general health is soon impaired. S5QQ FOR WOMEN WHO CANNOT BE CURED. Proprietors and makers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel fully warranted in offering to pay $500 in legal money of the United States for any case of Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb, which they cannot cure. All they ask is a fair ana reasonable trial of their means of cure. "A little over a year ago I wrote to you for advice,'* says Mrs. Elizabeth T, Fisher, of Diana, W. Va. "You advised me to use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and ' Golden Medical Discovery,' which I did, and with the most happy result I was troubled with female weakness and bearing-down pains. Had a very bad pain nearly all the time in my left side, nervousness and headache. Was so weak I could hardly ■walk across my room. Could not sit up only just a Uttle while at a time. My husband got me some of Dr. Pierce's medicine and I began its use. Before I had taken two bottles I was abl« to help do my work. I used three bottles in all and it cured me. Now I do all my housework. It is the best medicine I ever used."
