Secret of a Good Disposition
A woman who carefully safe
guards her health benefits her dispo
sition. Hhe will be happy and attrac
tive to all. The world unfortunately
Is Tilled with sweet women who are
unhappy because they are held back
from usefulness by troubles ao com
mon among them. Frettulness and
nervousness rapidly destroy good dis
positions. Sickly, all-worn-out wonv
en cannot make happy homes.
l.ydla K. Pink ham's Vegetable
tompound Is a safeguard ot women s
health. This is clearly proven by the
muny letters we are continually pub
lishing In this paper, from women
who have been restored to health and
happiness by Its use after years of
suffering. Why don". you try It?
