Three FACTS
For Sick Women
To Consider

FIRsT.-That almost every operation
IN our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect OF
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
OF the female organs, pain in the side,
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing down pains, nervousness, dig
illness and sleeplessness.
SECoND.-The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lydia
Il. Pinkham'S Vegetable Compound.
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache
nervousness, kidney troubles, infiam-
nation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. 1t has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
THIBD.-The great volume of unso-
hcited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn.
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb.
solute evidence of the value of lydia
70: Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkham's advice.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation
to Women suffering from anv
form of female weakness are invited to
promptly communicate with Mrs. Pink
ham, at Lynn, Mass. All letters are
received, opened. read and answered
by women only. From symptoms given.
your trouble may be located and the
quickest and surest way of recovery
advised. Mrs. Pinkham is dauphter-
ln-law of Lydia Z. Pinkham and for
twenty-five years under her direction
and since her decease she has been adj
vising sick women free ofcharge. Out of
the vast volume of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs Pinkham probably
has the very knowledge that will help
your case. Surely, any woman, rich or
poor. is very foolish if She doesn take
advantage of this generous offer of
assistance.
