An Invitation Io Women All the world knows of the wonder ful cures which have been made by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, yet some women do not realize that all that is claimed for it is abso lutely true. If all suffering women could be made to believe that Mrs. Pinkham can do all she says she can, their suffering would be at an end, for they would at once profit by her advice and be cured. There is no more puzzling thing than that women will suffer great pain month after month when every woman knows of some woman whom Mrs. Pinkham has helped, as the letters from grateful women are constantly being published at their own request. The same derangements which make Salnful or irregular periods with ull backaches and headaches, and dragging-down sensations, presently develop into those serious inflamma tions of the feminine organs which completely wreck health. Mrs. Pinkham invites women to write freely and confidentially to her about their health and got the benefit of her great experience with the suf ferings of women. No living person can advise you so well. No remedy in the world has the magnificent record of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound for absolute cures of female ills. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass. Tftreo Letters from One Woman, Showing how She Sought Mrs. Pinkham's AM, and was cured of Suppression of the Men ses and Inflammation of the Ovaries* " D eak M rs .

It is altogether prob able that they do sleep, though they never close their eyes, simply for the reason that they have no eyelids. Prob ably many fishes slumber while swim ming in the water, reducing the exer cise of their fins to an automatic mini mum. But It would be a mistake to suppose that a fish does its sleeping at night necessarily. On the contrary, many species are nocturnal in habit, feeding In the night time.
