THEY DID IT WITH AN ACORN OiUntlon, WXWVWL i If you had positive proof that a certain remedy for. female ills had made many remarkable cures, would you not feel like trying it? If during the last thirty years we have not succeeded m convincing every fair-minded woman that Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound has cured thousands and thou sands of women of the ills peculiar to their sex, then we t long for an opportunity to do so by direct correspondence. Meanwhile read the following letters which we guarantee to be genuine and truthful. Paterson, N. J. "Bug for Lydia E. Plnkham's VoRctable Compound I would not bo ollvo to-day for I was n miserable sufferer for four or f Ivo yours. Tho doctors mud it -was Chnngo of Llfo and I suffered untold agonies. "I had read that Lydia 13. Plnkham's Vcgctablo Compound was trood for fenialo troubles so started to tako it. I found great relief at onco, and to-day I am a well -woman. I thank Lydia 13. Plnkham's Vcsotoblo Compound for it, and gladly recommend It to any woman suf fcrlntr from Clmnpo of Lifo or . female troubles." Mrs. Win. Somorvlllc, 105 Hamburgh Ave, Paterson, N. J. Melbourne, la. "I nm thankful for tho great pood Lydia E. Plnkham's Vcjretablo Goinpound has dono me. I suffered many years from chronic inflammation and bearing down pains and was unable to do my work. "Lydia 13. Plnkham's Vccctablo Compound restored mo to health after all other means had failed, and to-day I am a living advertisement for It." Mrs. Clara AVutcrnmun, It. . No. 1, Melbourne, Iowa. There is absolutely no doubt about the ability of this grand old remedy, made from the roots and herbs of our fields, to cure female diseases. We possess volumes of proof of this fact, enough to convince the most skeptical. For 30 yenrs Lydia 13. Plnkham's Vcjretablo Compound hns been tho standard remedy for fomnlo Ills. No sick woman docs justleo to herself who will not try this famous medicine. Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit. faBMrs. Plnkhnm Invites all sick women UPV to writo her for advice. She has guided thousands to health freo of chnrge.
