What Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable

health and ailing.
Its benefits begin when its use begins.
1t gives strength and vigor from the

Remember Lydia E. Pinkhams Vege-
table Compound holds the record for
the greatest number of actual cures OF
woman's ills. This fact is attested to
by the thousands of letters from CRATE

Pinkham laboratory.
Women should remember that . cure
for all female diseases actually exists.
and that cure is Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
If you have symptoms you don't
