Overweight Nerves.

AS soon as a woman's become excited by some
feminine disorder, she loses control of her speech.
She has no patience with anybody anything.
The she loves the best the to whom she
talks the meanest
Trihes light as air drive her almost frantic.
She is than crazy because she knows what she
is doing and can't help it,
She doesn't have hysteria and doesn't have fainting
spells
She is nervous horribly
Does she get sympathy Oh yes she gets sympathy
for awhile but she acts ourageousy that everybody
keeps out of her way much possible After while
they begin think she's malicious and could do better if
she tried real hard.
She has turned her best friends against her.
This woman is sick with about the most discouraging
sickness women can have, and there is person who
understands her case better than any else in the
world. That person is Mrs Pinkham The nervousness
comes from arrangement of the feminine organs,
and constantly fed and made by the constantly
developing disease Female diseases get better of

physicians do not know how to gapple with these dis
eases of women Out of the hundreds of thousands
women Mrs Pinkham has cured, not in five hundred

ut night, is still the envied and re-
spected man in Chicago, and not the
one who was born with a silver spoon
III his mouth, who knows nothing Of
the getting but all Of the spending Of
money.
These men, az . rule, married for
love; their counting was not done with
an eye to dollars but to domestic

their old fogyish ways that compel
them to continue kissing the wives
who shared their early privations and
