Mrs. Anna Potts

Frequent backache and distressing
pains, accompanied by offensive dis
charges and generally by irregular
and scanty menstruation indicate dis
placement or nerve degeneration of
the womb and surrounding organs.
The question that troubles women
is how can a woman who has some fe-
male trouble bear healthy children?
Mrs. Anna Potts, of $40 Park Avenue,
Hot Springs, Ark, writes;
NV Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
During the early part of my married life
was delicate in health both my husband and
| were very anxious for child to bless our
home, but | had two miscarriages, and could
not carry a child to maturity. A neighbor
who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound advised me to try 1t. |
did so and soon felt that | was growing
stronger, my headaches and backaches left
me, | had no more bearing-down pains, and
felt like new woman. Within a year J.

hams Vegetable Compound is certainly a
splendid remedy, and | wish every woman
who wants to become a mother would try it,"
Actual sterility in woman is very
rare. If any woman thinks she is ster-
lie, let her try Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs.
Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice is
