A CONTENTED' WOMAN. "Aside from form or features, she has an cheek, the elasticity in her step, the ring of her attractiveness all her own. The bloom on her
voice, her enjoyment of life-all these are magnets which draw others to her side. Wonderful and valuable as it is, health is not so difficult a thing to obtain as some dis- couraged ones think. Most of the troubles of women arise from impure blood, impaired nutrition, low vitality and general debility Modern science furnishes the most successful of remedies for these conditions-namely
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION. It is palatable as boney and contains the
Liver Oil, extracted by us from fresh cod nutritive and curative properties of Pure Cod
livers, combined with the Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites and the Extracts of Malt and Wild Cherry. Taken before meals it improves the appetite, makes fat, restores vitality, enriches the blood and cares those weaknesses peculiar to the sex, which are the seat of their troubles. It is a blessing to Tired Wives, Nursing Mothers and Girls -growing into womanhood. It colours the pale faces and rounds out the hollow cherts. In a word, it nourishes and develops the entire body, and brings happy surprises to feeble, hopeless and discouraged sufferers. Dr. E. J. Boyes says: "I have found it a preparation of great merit In a recent case a patient gained nearly twenty pounds in two months' treat. ment, in which it was the principal remedial agent." It is the typical mediclaat success of our age, for time has proved our claims are supported by results, and a remedy which acts in harmony with nature's own efforts and processes. No demand has been made upon it for relief and cure, that has not me with instant response. One
bottle convinces. Effective from the first dose. "You cannot be disappointed in it". Like all good things it is imitated Sold by chemists here and every- Co., Limited. where throughout the world and A. S. Watson
