An
Invitation
ia
Women

All the world knows of the wonder
full cures which have been made by
Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, yet some women do not realize
that all that is claimed for it is abso-
lutely true.
II all suffering women could be made
to believe that Mrs. PinIham can do
all she says she can, their suffering
would be at an end, for they would
at once profit by her advice and be
cured.
There is no more puzzling thing than
that women will suffer great pain
month after month when every woman
knows of some woman whom Mrs.
Pinkham has helped, as the letters
from grateful women are constantly
being published at their own request.
The same arrangements which make
painful or irregular periods with
dull backaches and headaches, and
dragging-down sensations, presently
develop into those serious inflamma-
tions of the feminine organs which
completely wreck health.
Mrs. Pinkham invites women to
write freely and confidentially to her
about their health and get the benefit
of her great experience with the suf-
ferings of women. No living person
can advise you so we'll No remedy in
the world has the magnificent record
of Lydia +. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound for absolute cures of female
ills. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn,
