Too III to Walk Upright. Operation
Advised. Saved by Lydia E.

This woman now raises chickens and
does manual labor. Read her story:
Richmond, Ind. "For two years I
was so sick and weak with troubles
from my age that
when going up
stairs f had to go
very slowly with
my hands on the
steps, then sit down
at the top to rest.
The doctor said he
thought I should
have an operation,
and my friends
thought I would not
live to move into
our new house. My
daughter asked me
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound as she had taken it with good
results. I did so, my weakness dis
appeared, I gained in strength, moved
into our new home, did all kinds of
garden work, shoveled dirt, did build
ing and cement work, and raised hun
dreds of chickens and ducks. I can
not say enough in praise of Lydia E..
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
if these facts arc useful you may pub
lish them for the benefit of other
women." Mrs. M. O. JoiINSTON.Route

one ounce needed for the worst case.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
