l wmii Bucn women Knew tno value ol Lydla i'lnkiiam's Vegetable
Compound. It ia a remarkablo medicine, ditferent in action from any
I ever knew and thoroughly reliable.
u I have seen cases where women doctored for years without perma
nent benefit who were cured in less than three months after taking youx
Vegetable Compound, while others who were chronic and incurable
came out cured, happy, and in perfect health after a thorough treatment
witu mm im-uiLiiiu. x nave mjver useuii mysen wiinoui gaining great
benefit. A few doses restores my strength and appetite, and tones up
the entire system. Your medicine has been tried and found true, hence
I fully endorse it.1 Mbs. K. A, Andeesok, 225 Washington St, Jack
Bonviile, Fla.
Mrs. Itccd, 2423 E. Cumberland St., Philadelphia, Pa, says
"Dear Mas. PiXKnAMs I feel it my duty
to write and tell you the good I have received
from Lydia II Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound.
u I have been a great sufferer with female
trouble, trying different doctors and medicines
with no benefit. Two years ara I went under
an operation, and it left me in a very weak
condition. I had stomach trouble, backache,
ceaaacne, palpitation oi tne ncart, and was very
nervous ; in lact, l acned all over. 1 find
yours is the only medicine that reaches
such troubles, and would cheerfully rec
ommend Lyuia I'lnktiam s egetable
Compound to all suffering women."
When women are troubled with IrretruUr or painful menstruation, weak-
noaa, leuoorrbui, displacement or ulceration of the womb, that bearing-down
feeling, inflammation of the ovarica, backache, flatulence, general debility,
Indigeation, and norrous prostration, they abonld remember there ia one tried
and true remedy. Lydia E. Plnkham Vegetable Compound at onco
remoTea auch troubles. .
The experience and testimony of some of the most noted
women of America go to prove, beyond a question, that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will correct all such trouble at
once by removing the cause and restoring the organs to a healthy
and normal condition. If In doubt, write Mrs. Plnkham at Lynn,
Mass, as thousands do. Her advice is free and helpfuL
No other medicine for women in the world has received such wide
spread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a
record of cures of female troubles. IJefuse to buy any substitute.
