Of all the diseases known. with which women are afflicted, kidney dis ease is the most fatal. In fact, unless carly and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives.
 Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pink ham. early iu her career, gave exhaust ducing her great remedy for woman's il1s-- Lydia E. Pinkhamss Vegetable Cumpoun6--was careful to see that 1t contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that sfntaI disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable Compound acts in har- mony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many % called remedies fer kidney froubles. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound is the only one espe- Oially prepared for women, and thou aends have been cured of serious kidney derunRements by it. Dersngements of the feminine organs quickly affect the kidneys, and when . woman has such svmufoms as pain or weight in the loins. bscIache, bearing down pains, urine too frequent. scanty or high col Ored, producing scalding or burning, or deposits like brick dust in it; un- usual thirst, swelling of hands and feet. swelling under the eyes or sharp pains in tho back running down the inside of her groin. she may be sure her kid neys are affected and should lose no time in combating the disease with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com. pound, the woman's remedy for wo' mans ills.
 The following letters show how marvelously successful it is.
