At the New York State Assembly of
Mothers, n prominent New York doctor
told the 800 women present that healthy
American women were SO rare as to be
almost extinct.
This seems to be n sweeping state
ment of the condition of American
women. Yet how many do you know
who are perfectly well and do not have
some trouble arising from n derangc-
ment of the female organism which
manfests itself in headaches, back
aches, nervousness, that bearing down
feeling, painful or irregular menstrual
tion, leucorrhna, displacement of the
uterus, ovarian trouble, indigestion or
slecplcssncss There is n tried and
true remedy for all these ailments.
