DOCtOTBIIgDan Says MANY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE Lydia E. PisskksaSas'S
 Vegetable Compound

The wonderful power of Lydia D. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not be- cause it is stimulant, not because it is palliative. but simply because it is the most wonderful tonic and recon structor ever discovered to act directly upon the generative organs, positively curing disease and restoring health and vigor.
 Marvellous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians who have recognized the virtue of Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Com pound, and are fair enough to give credit where it is due.
 If physicians dared to be frank and open, hundreds of themwould acknowl- edge that they constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound in severe cases of female ills, as they know by experience it can. be re- lied upon to effect cure. The follow ing letter proves it.
 Dr. s. c. Brigham, of 4 Brigham Park, Fitchburg, Mass, writes
 ." It gives me great pleasure % say that have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound very eff1cacious, and often pre- scribe it in my practice for female difficulties.
 "My oldest daughter found it very benefl- cial for uterine trouble some time ago, and my youngest daughter is now taking it for fe- male weakness, and is surely gaining in health and strength.
 II freely advocate it as most reliable spe- cific in all diseases to which women are sub ject, and give it honest endorsement"
 Women who are troubled with pain full or irregular menstruation, bloating tor f1atulence), leucorrhea, falling, in- fiammation or alteration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that bearing-down feeling, dizziness, faintness, indiges- tion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the serious consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta- ble Compound, and then write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, for further free advice. No living person has had the benefit of wider experience in treating female ills. She has guided thousands to health. Every suffering woman should ask for and follow her advice if she wants to be strong and we'll. <. "s' 7. .,s:.'s ,s
