: Timepiece- is Viicertaiii if That Organ
Is Irregular, Says a Watch Maker.
Nobody would , ever think that,
something the matter with him
would cause something to be the
matter with his watch, but a watch
maker is the cause of much uneasi
ness in an East End family, and all
because he Insists that he does his
best with a certain watch and that
the reason it does not keep good
time is because the man who carries
ir. must have an irregular heart beat.
It came about in this wise: The
head of the family has a gold watch
that cost him $200 ten years ago.
He has carried it ever since, but a
year ago It began to act queerly.
For some days it lost time, and then
It began to gain time; again it
would gain time mysteriously and
then strangely lose a minute or two
a day. It had been to the watch re

and wU . still acting irregularly a

it to the--watch-maker. i
"I think I know what is the mat

assuming them to bo such, prescribes his
pills and potions. In reality, they are all
only. symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
rmrne of jiufl'erins:. encourages this prac
tice until large hills are made. The suf
fering patient gets no letter, but probably
worse, by reason of the delay, wrong
treatment and consequent complications,
A proper medicine, like Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription, directed to the mvxc
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling, all those distressing
symptoms, and instituting comfort in
stead of prolonged misery. It has been
well said, that "a disease known is half
cured."
,Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a"
scicnti lie medicine, carefully devised by
an experienced and skillful physician,
and adapted to woman's delicate svstem.
It is made of native medicinal roots "und
