R. H, Moore, Franklin, Ky., writes:
I have been selling PERRY DAVIS PAINKILLER for 37 years and have often
wondered at the steady sale with so little advertising for same. This I
consider is strong evidence that the remedy has merit, and in fact I
feel assured that I sell but few remedies that would stand this test.

not remove it. It remains a soft beautiful pink until it is washed off
with pure soap and water. "Blush of Roses" is not removed by
perspiration. "Blush of Roses" is guaranteed to be perfectly harmless.

DR. MARTELS FEMALE PILLS
18 YEARS THE STANDARD

A scientifically Prepared Remedy (For Disturbances of the Menstrual
Functions) Sold Only Through the Medical and Drug Profession; for
Medical Purposes Only.

A FEW REMARKS OF IMPORTANCE TO WOMANKIND

Dr. Martel's Female Pills is a preparation of unequaled excellence,
which acts as a positive tonic on the female reproductive organs, and
imparts to them the proper functional action nature demands in normal,
healthy women, without untoward action. Dr. Martel's Female Pills
possess only virtues of the highest possible value. It re-establishes
the proper action of the generative organs by restoring their vitality,
and not by merely stimulating them excessively (and temporarily), as do
so many other agents of this class.

In the treatment of all disturbances of the menstrual functions arising
from debility, anemia or nervousness, Dr. Martel's Female Pills are of
unsurpassed value. This preparation is a uterine and ovarian sedative,
and is of special service in treating congestive and inflammatory
conditions of these organs which are accompanied with unusual pain.

Amenorrhea.--When the menstrual flow is scanty or suppressed, as a
result of sudden exposure to cold, worry, fright, grief or other violent
mental shocks.

Menorrhagia.--Profuse menstruation is at once relieved by Dr. Martel's
Pills. The preparation instantly restores vigor to the uterus which has
been lost through the excessive flow of blood. It is advisable to begin
the use of the preparation a few days in advance of the flow in those
cases which are disposed to menstruate profusely at each visitation.

Menopause.--The nervous and mental disturbances which frequently precede
and succeed the final cessation of ovulation and menstruation respond
readily to the anti-spasmodic and tranquilizing action of Dr. Martel's
Pills. Where hysteria, melancholia, moroseness and despondency are
conspicuous factors, the preparation can be used to great advantage. The
improvement in the mental state of the patient after the administration
of this product is always durable and pronounced.

Dysmenorrhea.--In the treatment of congestive, neuralgic, mechanical or
membranous types of dysmenorrhea, the action of Dr. Martel's Pills is
particularly gratifying.

THIS PREPARATION IS OF PARTICULAR VALUE IN THE TREATMENT OF MENSTRUAL
IRREGULARITIES FROM ANY CAUSE, AS ABOVE STATED, WHICH FAIL TO RESPOND TO
OTHER AND ORDINARY MEDICAL REMEDIES.

It is a well known, and scientifically proven fact, that all women are
not constitutionally or temperamentally alike. Where some respond
readily to one mode of treatment others do not. For this reason we have
prepared a preparation designed for such instances. This remedy is Dr.
Martel's Special Female Pills. $5.00 Box.

Nervous? Suffer From Indigestion, Irregular Kidneys, Bowel Trouble,
Appendicitis, Gall Stones--Here Is Relief

When your head aches; when your breath is bad; when your bowels or
kidneys are irregular; when your appetite fails or the twinges of
indigestion make you regret each meal; when your nervous system has gone
to pieces--then is your stomach sending its wireless message for help.

The trouble may be in the stomach itself--indigestion--dyspepsia, and
their nightmare evils.

The intestinal tract may be deranged or the liver clogged, or it may be
gall stones. Your case may not have reached the gall stone stage. It may
be of a different nature--threatened appendicitis, for example. In any
case, whether it be bad stomach, torpid liver or weakened and inflamed
bowels--the answer to that wireless should be Fruitola and Traxo.

These are two remarkable preparations used in combination, which for the
past 20 years and more have released thousands from the pangs of
dyspepsia and have saved as many from operations for gall stones and
appendicitis.

Fruitola cleanses, lubricates and soothes all the channels of the
digestive system, without the least pain, griping or resulting weakness.
It is nutritive in effect. It revives the appetite, clears the way for
perfect digestion and thorough assimilation, allows Nature to make pure
blood, firm flesh, strong muscles, healthy tissue and store up vital
energy. A whole bottle of Fruitola is to be taken at once; this to be
followed by small doses of Traxo to complete the strengthening and
toning effect on the stomach, to insure regular, natural action of
bowels and kidneys and to give permanence to all the benefits of the
treatment. The gentle action of Traxo on the kidneys removes waste and
by keeping the liver active it frees the general circulation of bile--it
clears the eye and complexion and brings the glow of health to the
cheeks.

Pinus, the great rheumatism remedy, has saved thousands of sufferers
after long years of agonizing attacks. Joints swollen and misshapen by
Inflammatory Rheumatism, nerves and muscles overpowered by the intense
misery of Chronic Rheumatism and Sciatica have been restored to health
and strength--pain and swelling banished by the marvelous properties of
Pinus, a product of California's wonderful soil and sun.

Fruitola, Traxo and Pinus are guaranteed under the Pure Food and Drugs
Act. They are entirely vegetable and there is not a single ingredient
that can harm the most sensitive system when taken as directed. They are
made from the natural products of California, the land of health and
sunshine.

Stop your suffering and suspense at once. Get the most wonderful
remedies from your druggist today. If he doesn't have them he can get
them for you promptly. Every wholesale druggist keeps them. Get our
booklet anyway and read the living testimony. If not at your druggist's,
write us.

The Way To Do.

There are just three ways of reducing fat: starvation, exercise and
medical treatment. Anyone can reduce by starvation methods. Let him eat
nothing for three weeks and the fat will drop from his bones, but the
after effects are bad. Debilitated looking wrinkles. Use Gaveck Tablets,
eat most anything.
