and she is often the bread-winner Of
the family. Whether she is sick or
well, whether it rains or shines, she
must get to her place of employment,
perform the duties exacted OF her
smile and be agreeable.
Among this class the symptoms OF
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of the
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, periods become
painful and irregular, and frequently
there are faint and dizzy spells, with
loss of appetite, until life is a burden.
All these symptoms point to a de-
rangement of the female organism
which can be easily and promptly
cured by Lydia z. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound.
Miss Abby F. Barrows. Jacksonville,
Athens Co, Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham -
Il feel it my duty to tell you the good
Lydia E.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and Blood Purifier have done for me. Before
| took them / was very nervous, had dull
headaches, pains in back, and periods were
irregular, / had been to several doctors, and
they did me no good.
Your medicine has made me well and
strong. / can do most any kind of work
without complaint, and my periods are all
right.
and / know it is all due to your remedies. /
recommend your advice and medicine to all
who suffer-"
It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink
ham holds out a helping hand and ex-
tends a cordial invitation to correspond
with her. She is daughter-in-law of
Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five
years has been advising sick women
free of charge. Her long record of
success in treating woman's ills makes
her letters of advice of untold value to
every ailing working girl. Address,
Mrs. Plnkham, Lynn, Mass.
