The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser in Plain English Part 122

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL a.s.sOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

_Gentlemen_--Four years ago, I became afflicted with womb trouble--knew nothing but pain and suffering. Began doctoring right away with our home doctor. He not doing me any good, I went to another doctor who advised me to wear an inside supporter, _which really did me more harm than good_. Last spring was taken down sick and laid on my back for ten weeks; when I heard of Dr. Pierce's wonderful Favorite Prescription. The first bottle helped me. I have now taken four bottles and feel perfectly cured. I cannot find language to express my grat.i.tude for being restored to perfect health from a condition worse than death.

Yours truly, Mrs F. Holmes.

SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION.

[Ill.u.s.tration: Miss Burk.]

_Gentlemen_--When I was fourteen years old I took a bad cold and there resulted internal troubles. I was a great sufferer for four years. I had tried two physicians but neither gave me any relief. After taking Dr.

Pierce's Favorite Prescription I can't say enough for it. It cured me so I have no more pains. I am now nineteen years of age.

Respectfully, Miss MAMIE BURK, Everett, Bedford Co., Pa.

HOW TRAVELING INVALIDS MAY BE IMPOSED UPON.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL a.s.sOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

_Gentlemen_--It is now about five years since I spent eight days at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Inst.i.tute, under treatment for a chronic disease of eighteen years' standing. I had given up to die. Going to your Dispensary was a last resort with me; I had undergone a surgical operation at the hands of my family physician from which I grew worse every day for eight months, so that I very despondently started for your inst.i.tution; and when I had traveled eleven hundred miles I was made more despondent by inquiring of a man how far I had to travel to reach Buffalo, N.Y.: He answered, "Just one hundred miles." I then inquired of him if he had ever been in Buffalo, N.Y. He replied, "Many a time." I then asked him, what about Dr. Pierce's world-famed Surgical Inst.i.tute?

"Oh, it's a humbug. They have some drawings or pictures taken from some government buildings, that's where they get that fine building you see pictured in their books and pamphlets."

I don't suppose there ever was a sadder heart entered the door of the Invalids' Hotel than that heart of mine; but it was soon made glad to be glad ever since. During the first night in the Invalids' Hotel I met and talked with patients afflicted as I was. Many of them were cured and talking of going home next day, and sure enough, they went; but I never missed them in number for others kept coming.

I can honestly and truthfully say that the World's Dispensary Medical a.s.sociation of Buffalo, N.Y., is anything else than a humbug. The reason why they are not humbugs is plain. They continue to perform wonderful cures and treat their patients with unsurpa.s.sed nursing, and a kinder lot of physicians, surgeons and nurses I don't believe can be found in the world.

I cheerfully advise all persons suffering from chronic diseases not to stop to count the distance from where they live to Buffalo, N.Y., but go straight to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Inst.i.tute without delay, for it is by the will of G.o.d and their skill that I am living to-day.

Yours truly, L.M. McPhail, Autun, Anderson County, S.C.

NERVOUSNESS, "FEMALE WEAKNESS," NASAL CATARRH.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL a.s.sOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

[Ill.u.s.tration: Mrs. Sanderson.]

_Gentlemen_--My health was utterly gone. Was suffering from nervousness, female troubles and nasal catarrh; life was almost a burden to me, but a glorious change came, due solely to Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. I have suffered more than tongue can ever tell. I have been treated by good physicians but they only help me temporarily. I have taken a great many patent medicines with the same result. In 1890, I began taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, which gave me immediate relief and a permanent cure.

Respectfully, MRS. BELLE SANDERSON, Sprout, Nicholas Co., Ky.

MADE HER "STRONG AND WELL."

DR. R.V. PIERCE, Buffalo, N.Y.:

West Liberty, Ohio.

_Dear Sir_--I can cheerfully recommend your valuable medicine, the "Favorite Prescription," to suffering females. Three years ago my health became so poor that I was scarcely able to help with the household duties. I was persuaded to try your medicine, and purchased six bottles.

That, with the local treatment you advised, made me strong and well. My sister has used it in the family with like results.

Yours truly, L.E. Johnson

MADE LIFE A BURDEN.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL a.s.sOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

[Ill.u.s.tration: Miss Crawford.]

_Gentlemen_--For years I suffered monthly from periodic pains which at times were so acute as to render life a burden. I began using Dr.

Pierce's Favorite Prescription. I used seven bottles in as many months and derived so much benefit from it and the home-treatment recommended in his Treatise on Diseases of Women, that I wish every women throughout our land, suffering in the same way, may be induced to give your medicines and treatment a fair trial.

Gratefully yours, Miss G.F. CRAWFORD, Limestone, Me.

"FEMALE WEAKNESS," LEUCORRHEA.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL a.s.sOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

[Ill.u.s.tration]

_Gentlemen_--I will write you a few lines to-day and feel thankful that I can say I enjoy good health most all the time. When I first commenced using your medicine I was suffering from female weakness, leucorrhea, bearing-down pains and a soreness across me that at times I could hardly stand up straight when I would get up off of my chair to walk across the room. I got a bottle of your "Favorite Prescription" and by the time I had used half of it, the soreness began to get better. I used three bottles altogether, and since that, you might say I am enjoying the best of health most of the time. I have had two baby boys since--both healthy, although the baby is only three weeks old, and I am doing all of my own work since he was two and one-half weeks old.

I always speak highly and recommend your medicine because I know it deserves a good name; and I feel certain it will cure female diseases if they give it a fair trial.

Yours respectfully, MRS. RICHARD REED, Springfield, Kings Co., N.B.

FEMALE IRREGULARITIES.

Cuscowilla, Mecklenburg Co., Va.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL a.s.sOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

_Gentlemen_--I take pleasure in adding my testimonial to the great list, and hope that it will be of interest to suffering humanity. I tried three doctors and none of them seemed to do me any good. When at last I almost despaired of health any more, I saw in a paper one of your advertis.e.m.e.nts, and I sent for and got two bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and I improved so rapidly that I sent for and got three bottles of your "Favorite Prescription," and now I am as well as I have been since I was a child.

I had been a sufferer for three years when I commenced taking Dr.

Pierce's medicines. When I commenced taking it, I was not able to walk across my room without help, or rise from my chair. I suffered from nervousness very much, and with the least excitement I would faint; and I think, in short, I suffered with female irregularities and that your medicine has brought me through. I don't think I can say enough for it.

I have used five bottles of your medicine in all.

If any one wishes to know what I have to say, they can address me in person, enclosing stamps. With respect, I am,

Yours, Sarah E. Ineker
