of Lydia f. Pinl<ham's Vegetable
Compound.
If your case has pre- crossed so that a
troublesome discharge is already es-
tablished, do not delay, take the Veg
etable Compound at once, so as to tone

You ought also to use a local applica-
ton, or else the corrosive discharge
will set up an inflammation and hard

Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the
