NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. pISxHAM.l

A woman with the blues is very un-
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition of the mind known as
the blues" nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs Of
generation.
1t is source of wonder that in this
age Of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
business in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinkham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough COM
mon sense. and is the counsel of a
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs F. s. BENNETT.
Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol-
lowing letter:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:--I have suf.
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
a weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for a short time,
that terrible flow stopped.
II am now gaining strength and

have had for the past ten years. 1
