At the New York State Assembly of Mothers, a prominent New York doctor told the 500 women present that healthy American women were so rare as to be almost extinct.
 This seems to be sweeping state- ment of the condition of American women. Yet how many do you know who are perfectly we'll and do not have some trouble arising from a derange- ment of the female organism which manifests itself in headaches, back aches, nervousness, that bearing-down feeling, painful or irregular periods, pelvic catarrh, displacement of the female organs, indigestion or sleepless- ness? There is tried and true remedy for all these ailments Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound has re- stored more American women to health than all other remedies in the world. It regulates, strengthens and cures diseases of the female organism as nothing else can. For thirty years it has been curing the worst forms of female complaints.
 Such testimony as the following should be convincing.
 Mrs. T. c. Willadsen, of Manning, Is., writes:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 "I can truly say that you have saved my life and l cannot express my gratitude to you in words For years ISpent lots of money in doctoring without any benefit for female irregularities and had given up all hopes of ever being well again, but was persuaded to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and three bottles have restored me to perfect health. Had it not been for you l would have been in my grave today"
