While no woman is entirely free from

When pain exists something is wrong
which should be set right or it will
lead to serious arrangement OF the
whole female organism.
Thousands of women have testified
in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinkham
that Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound overcomes woman's special
pains and irregularities,
1t provides a safe and sure way of
escape from distressing and dangerous
weaknesses and diseases.
The two following letters tell SO con-

to thousands of sufferers.
