YOUNG AT SIXTY.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad. vanced years are realized by compara. lively few women.
 Their hard lives, their liability to se- rious troubles on account of their pecu- liar organism and their profound igno- rance concerning themselves, all com bine to shorten the period of usefulness and fill their later years with suffering.
 Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make women strong. She has given advice to many that has shown them how to guard against disease and retain vigor- ous health in old age. From every cor ner of the earth there is constantly com ing the most convincing statements from women, showing the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound in overcoming female ills. Here is a letter from Mrs. J. c. 0rms, of 220 Horner St., Johnstown, Pa, which is earnest and straight to the point:
 "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM;-I feel it my duty to tell all suffering women that I think your remedies are wonderful. I had trouble with my head, dizzy spells and hot flashes. Feet and hands were cold, was very nervous, could not sleep well, had kidney trouble, pain in ovaries and congestion of the womb. Since taking your remedies I am better every way My head trouble is all gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am cured of womb trouble. can eat and sleep well and am gaining in flesh. consider your medicine the best to be had for female troubles"
 The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert enee in treating female ills is unparal- lelled, for years she worked side by side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and for sometime past has had sole charge of the correspondence department of her great business, treating by letter Hs many as hundred thousand ailing women during single year.
