To Married Women — Madame Restell, Female Physician, is happy to have it in her power to say that since the introduction into this country, about a year ago of her celebrated Preventative Powers for married ladies, whose health forbids a too rapid increase of family; hundreds have availed themselves of their use, with a success and satisfaction that has at once dispelled the fears and doubts of the most timid and skeptical; for notwithstanding that for twenty years they have been used in Europe with invariable success (first introduced by the celebrated Midwife and Female Physician, Madame Restell, the grandmother of the advertiser, who made this subject her especial study,) still some were inclined to entertain some degree of distrust, until become convinced by their successful adoption in this country. The results of their adoption to the happiness, the health, nay, often the life of many an affectionate wife and a fond mother, are too vast to touch upon within the limits of an advertisement — results which affect not only the present well-being of parents, but the future happiness of their offspring. Is it not but too well known that the families often increase beyond the happiness of those who give them birth would dictate? In how many instances does the hardworking father, and more especially the mother, of a poor family, remain slaves throughout their lives, tugging at the oar of incessant labor, toiling to live and living to toil; when they might have enjoyed comfort and comparative affluence; and if care and toil have weighed down the spirit, and at last broken the health of the father, how often is the widow left, with the most virtuous intentions, to save her fatherless offspring from becoming degraded objects of charity or profligate votaries of vice? And even though competence and plenty smile upon us, how often, alas are these days of the kind husband and father embittered in beholding the emaciated form and declining health of the companion of his bosom, ere she had scarece reached the age of thirty — fasting sinking into a premature grave — with the certain prospect of himself being early bereft of the partner of his joys and sorrows and his young and helpless children of the endearing attentions and watchful solicitude which a mother alone can bestow, not unfrequently at the time when able to support the heart-rending affliction! Is it desirable then — is it moral for parents to increase their families, regardless of consequences to themselves or the well being of their offspring when a simple, easy, healthy and certain remedy is within our control? The advertiser feeling the importance of this subject and estimating the vast benefits to thousands by the adoption of means prescribed by her, would respectfully arouse the attention of the married, by all that they hold near and dear to its consideration. Is it not wise and virtuous to prevent evils to which we are subject by simple and healthy means within our control? Every dispassionate, virtuous, and enlightened mind will unhesitatingly answer in the affirmative. This is all that Madame Restell recommends or ever recommended. Price Five Dollars a package, accompanied with full and particular directions. For the convenience of those unable to call personally, "Circulars" more fully explanatory will be sent free of expense (postage expected) to any part of the United States. All letters must be post-paid, and addressed to Madame Restell, Female Physician, Principal Office, 148 Greenwich street, New York. Office hours from 9 A.M. to 7 P.M. Philadelphia office, 39 1/2 South Eighth street.
