Plnkhara'a Vegetable Compound Rests Upon the Fact that it Really Doei Make Sick Women Well. Thousands upon thousands of Ameri can women have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkhama Vegeta ble Compound. Their letters are on file in Mrs. Pinkham's office, and prove this statement to be a fact and not a mere boast. Overshadowing indeed is the success of this great medicine, and compared with it all other medicines and treat ment for women are experiments. Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound accomplished such widespread results for good? Why has it lived and thrived and done its glorious work for a quarter of a century? Simply and surely because of its ster ling worth. The reason no other med icine has even approached its success is plainly and positively because there is no other medicine in the world so good for women's ills. The wonderful power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not be cause it is a stimulant not because it Is a palliative, but simply because it is the most wonderful tonic and recon structor ever discovered to act directly npon the female system, positively cubing disease and displacements and restoring health and vigor. Marvelous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians who have recognized the virtue in Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, and are fair enough to give credit where it is due. If physicians dared to be frank and open, hundreds of them would acknowledge that they constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound in severe cases of female ills, as they know by experience that it will effect a cure. Women who are troubled with pain ful or irregular periods, backache, bloating (or flatulence), weakness, dis placements, inflammation, ulceration, that bearing-down" feeling, dizzi ness, faintness, indigestion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the seri ous consequences, and be restored to health and strength by taking Lydla K, Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
