TO READERS OF THE LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL:

Did you read the article published by The Ladies’ Home Journal? fa May 1904, attacking Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription? Haw, you seen the statement more recently made by Mr, Bok, the Hditor of that magazine that his company "has not paid a single penny to Dr. R. V. Pierce’s concern * * * in settlement of any suit” ? W# you to know the truth. The facts are these : Four days after the article in May 1904, appeared, Dr. PierceM] company sued. The Ladies’ Home Journal publishers for libel. Thai trial was had in April last. Dr. Pierce proved that the attack" made byf The Ladies’ Home Journal was false. He proved that Dr. Pierce's F** vorite Prescription does not, and never did contain either alcohol or any f of the injurious drugs which The Ladies’ Home Journal falsely stated! it did contain. This was so conclusively shown that the attorneys for The Ladies’ Home Journal were forced to admit it. The jury rendered! a verdict against The Ladies’ Home, Journal in favor of Dr. Pierce’# company for $16,000.00. This was a complete vindication of Doctor! Pierce and his n Favorite Prescription.” It judicially established that? the libel was wholly false, and without any justification. Dr. Pierce, however, believed that his company is justly entitled) to a verdict for a much larger sum. Through his attorneys he has,, therefore, applied to the court for a new trial of the case. For this) reason, and for this reason alone, has The Ladies’ Home Journal notj yet paid "a single penny to Dr. R. V. Pierce’s concern.” Dr. Pierce has simply chosen not to collect the judgment until the motion for « new trial has been decided. ‘ In the light of these facts does not this boastful statement that itj «has not paid a single penny to Dr. R. V. Pierce’s concern ” look likfr a cheap and common bluff, a half truth intended to mislead you ? '<

During the trial of the libel suit against tne above mentioned publishers, Dr. Lee H. Smith, Vice-President of the World’s Dispensary Medical Association,- stated under oath that the ingredients of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription were wholly extracted from the following nativ&roots; Golden Seal, Blue Cohosh, Lady’s Slipper Black CfiKMfrand UnicornUjy means of pure gljVeftoe of proper srifngth. He was askiM nb» he knew, as and experienced medical raan/that the "Favorite’Prescription " was a\are for the pecVliar to as " femaleVveaAjiess,C vie catarrhal\drafha, jjrelafrsus, Netrtwersion, irregular ancTpainful periooq, other diseases of the womanly orgwqX and he stated that he knew such waff the fact because of his professional experience and the many thousands of women whose ills, to his personal knowledge, had been cured by this "Prescription.” This experience of Dr. Smith was corroborated by the standard Medical Authorities, of the several schools of practice, endorsing the various ingredients in the strongest terms. Dr. Smith being asked to name some of these authorities as to the curative value . of the above roots read from the standard works, such as the United States Dispensatory; The American Dispensatory; Organic Medicines, by Grover Coe, M. D.; Materia Medico. by Professor Finley Ellingwood of the Bennett Medical College. Chicago; "New Remedies," by Prof. Edwin M. Hale, M. D., of Chicago; Text-Book of Therapeutics, by Dr. Hobart A. Hare, Prof, in Univ. of Penn’a; Laurence Johnson. M. D„ Prof. In University of New York: Prof. John King, Author of "Woman and Her Diseases”: Professor John M. Scudder, M. D., Author of a treatise on "The Diseases of Women"; Horatio C. Wood, M. D.. Author of "Therapeutics”; Roberts Bartholow, A. M.. M. D., Professor of Materia Medica. Jefferson Medical College of Phlla. All these recognized and standard authorities praise, in the strongest possible terms, each and every ingredient which enters into the "Favorite Prescription ” of Dr. Pierce for the cure of woman’s peculiar weaknesses and ail-

ments. In fact the "Favorite Prescript tion” stands alone as being the only] medicine for woman’s special ailment# which has any such professional endorsement of its several ingredients which, fact is generally recognized as entitled! to much more weight than any amount of lay, or non-professional testimonials.! The "Favorite Prescription" standm alone as the only non-secret, medicine) for woman’s ailments. Its manufact-j nrers are not afraid to publish its ingredients, as they do, broadcast—thne courting the fullest scrutiny. The “Favorite Prescription ” has beenj on trial in court and came out fully) vindicated as containing no harmful o» habit-forming drugs. ! What other medicine for women could stand such a test ? No invalid women can afford accept a secret nostrum of unknown composition for this tried and. proven) remedy of known composition. Leading physicians often prescribe it because! they know exactly what it is made off and that the ingredientsfof which it if! composed are the very best known to! medical science for the cure of woman’# peculiar weaknesses and delicate ailments. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is not advertised as a "Cure AH ” but admirably fulfills a singleness of purpose, being gj superior and most positive remedy for one class of diseases only—those easily recognized weaknesses, derangements, Irregularities and painful disorders peculiar to women. It is a powerful, yet gently acting, invigorating, tonic and strengthening] nervine. For weak, worn-out, over-workj-j ed women—no matter what has caused) the break-down,—whether it bo from tow frequent bearing of children or from muett worry, care, or over exertion of any kind. 1 "Favorite Prescription" will be found most efficient in building np the strength, regulating all the womanly function*, banishing pain and bringing about a regular and healthy, vigorous condition at I the whole female system.
