"A
Won,an,s
Mistake

It is a well-known fact that Lydia
E. PinlSham's Vegetable Compound
has cured more women than any other
remedy. 1t therefore must be the
best possible medicine for female ills.
But some women make the mistake
of thinking that they will try some
thing else, simply because it is new.
That mistake is often fatal one
fatal to the health and happiness of
the experimenter.
is it not foolish to risk the possible
results of such experiments? Is it not
better to depend upon medicine
which has been tried successfully for
thirty years, and which has never
been found wanting? Do not therefore
let any one persuade you to try some
thing which they say is just as good.
1t cannot be just as good. Mrs. Pink
hams Compound is the best, and there
can be only one best. This is not a
mere assertion, but is positive fact,
admitted by hundreds of regular
physicians.
Rely on your own common sense,
and Mrs. Pinkham's lifelong expert
ence, and you will make no mistake.
Don't experiment with your health,
but take medicine that you know is
good, and is backed by such letters as
these to Mrs. Pinkham:
