Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Saved Her Life and Sanity. Shamrock, Mo. " I fwl it my duty to tell the public the condition of my health before Ufung your medicint. I had falling, inflamma tion and congestion, female weakness, pains in both sides, backaches and bear ing down pains, was short of memory, nervous, impatient, passed sleepless nights, and had neither strength nor energy. There waa always a fear and dread in my mind, I had cold, nervous, weak spells, hot flashes over my body. I had a place in my right side that was 80 sore that I could hardly bear the weight of my clothes. I tried medicines and doctors, but they did m little good, and I never expected to get out again. I got Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier, and I cer tainly would have been in grave or in en asylum if your medicines had not saved me. But now I can work all day, sleep well at night, eat anything I want, ha e no hot flashes or weak, nervous spells. All pains, aches, fears and dreads are gone, my house, children and husband are no longer neglected, as I am almost entirely free of the bad symptoms I had before taking your remedies, and all is pleasure and happiness in my home."

The Family Suffers, the Toor Mothers Suffer Mrs. Becker Meets This Distressing: Situation. Collinsvillc, III. "1 suffered from a nervous break-down and terrible head aches, and waa tired all over, totally worn out and too discouraged to enjoy life imt a I had four In family and sometimes eight or nine boarders. 1 kept on working despite my aufrering. "I saw Vlnol advertised and decided to try It, and within two weeks 1 noticed a decided improvement in my condition and now I am a well woman." Mrs. ANA BECKEH, Colltnaville. 111. There are hundreds of nervous, run down, overworked women lis this vicinity who are hardly able to drag around and who we are sure would be wonderfully benefited by Vlnol as Mrs. Becker was. The reason Vlnol In so successful In hniiHini, n n health and strength In such cases Is because It combines the medici nal tissue building and curative ele ments of cod's livers together with the blood making, strengthening proper ties of tonic iron. We Ohk every weak, nervous, run-down man or woman In this vicinity to try a bottlo of Vlnol on our guarantee to return their money if It falls to benefit. Th. rwi 1'ruir Co.. Purtland.
