The Atlanta constitution., 1902-11-17

When a physician tells woman suffering with
ovarian or womb trouble that an operation is neceS
sary, it of course frightens her.
The very thought of the operating table and the
knife strikes terror to her heart.
And our hospitals are full of women who are
there for ovarian and womb operations
1t is quite true that these troubles may reach a
stage where an operation is the only resource but
such cases are much rarer than is generally sup
posed, because great many women have been cured
by Mrs. Pinkhams medicine after the doctors had
said the operation must be performed
Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
been very successful in curing ovarian troubles In
fact up to the point where the knife must be used to
secure instant relief this medicine is certain to help
Ovarian troubles easily developed from
womb troubles and womb troubles are SO very
common that oyaritiS is steadily on the increase
among women. 1t is, nevertheless, most ser-
Gus trouble, and to recommend wrong treatment
for it is a crime for which there cannot be too
deep penalty.
1t is, therefore, with full consciousness of the
seriousness of the disease, and the steady failure of
other medicine to cure it, that present for oya-
rian and womb trouble Lydia T.. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound as the most certain to help OF any
medicine in the world to-day. Any person who
could read the letters in Mrs. Pnkhams files at her
office in Lynn Mass would be convinced of the eili-
cheney of Mrs. Pinkhams Compound.
The strongest and most grateful statements
possible to make come from women who have
escaped the operating table by the of this
medicine. Let any woman suffering from these
troubles, anything which may develop into
them, write and get Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
If you beyond the reach of the medicine,
you will be frankly told but, if not, you will
be fully, and carefully. and kindly advised.
