Questions
for
Women

II YOU were offered sure aid in time
Of trouble would you put IL aside
and accept something of doubtful
efficiency?
If YOU saw before you a strong and
safe bridge leading to your goal, would
you ignore it to try some insecure and
tottering structure
The answer to these questions is
plain. You would, of course, choose
without hesitation what all evidence
showed to be the safe thing, and you
would risk nothing in useless expert
ments.
Why, then, do some women risk ono
of their most precious possessions
their health-in trying medicines OF
unknown value, which may even prove
hurtful to them?
Lydia f. Pinsham's Vegetable Com
pound has stood the test of years. 1t
has the largest sale of any remedy for
female ills in the world, and nothing
could have given it this sale except its
own merit.
Do not try any experiments, but buy
what is known to be reliable. Mrs.
Pinkham's Compound can do all that
is claimed for it, and all statements in
regard to it can be easily verified.
Write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. g,
for little book she has just published
containing letters from the mayor of
Lynn, tie postmaster and others.
Mrs. Pinkhams advice is offered free
of charge to all women who write to
her for aid. This invitation is con-
stantly renewed. million women
have been cured of serious female ills by
Mrs. Pinkhams advice and medicine.
