American Woman.

1t Is a very sad fact that the more .
woman trusts to the skill of her physician
in treating her female complaints, the
longer she is apt to suffer.
Lydia Z. Pinkham fully realized this
fact when she commenced that exhaus-
tive study that has enabled the women of
the world to help themselves. She dis
covered the source of female complaints,
and produced the Vegetable Compound,
which is their absolute cure.
When such testimony as the following
is given, the woman who thinks should
act quickly, and no longer permit herself
TO trust to incompetent doctors. The
Vegetable Compound is sold by all drug
gists, and every woman should have it.
