A TRAINED NURSE
After Years of Experience, Advises Women in
Regard to Their Health.

Mrs. Martha Pohlman
Of 55 Chester Avenue,
Newark, N. j., who is a
graduate Nurse from the
Blockley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
six years Chief Clinic
Nurse at the Philadelphia
Hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantage of personal
experience, besides her
professional education,
and what she has to say
may be absolutely relied
upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she was. They
can regain health in the
same way. 1t is prudent
to heed such advice from
such a source.
Mrs. Pohlman writes:
'I am firmly persuaded,
after eight years of experience
with Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, that it
is the safest and best medicine
for any suffering woman to
use."
Immediately after my
marriage I found that my
health began to fail me. I be-

severe bearing-down pains,

1t is only by acting in this spirit
that the national judges, legislators,
and executives can give satisfactory
solution of the great question Of the
present day-the question Of provid-
ing on behalf Of the sovereign people
the means which will enable the peo.
ple in effective form TO assert their
sovereignty over the immense corpor-
ations of the day. Certain judicial de-
cisions have done just what Wilson
feared: they have, as matter of fact
left vacancies, left blanks between the
limits of actual national Jurisdiction
over the control of the great business
corporations. 1t is the narrow con
struction OF the powers OF the National
Government which in our democracy
has proved the chief means of limit
ing the national power to cut out
abuses, and which is now the chief
bulwark of those great moneyed in
terests which oppose and dread any
attempt to place them under efficient
governmental control.
