The very thought Of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror to
her heart. As one woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knel had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for just such operations!
It is quite true that these troubles
may reach stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed, l,
because q great many women have
been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must be per-
formed. In fact, up to the point where
the knife must be used to secure instant
relief. this medicine is certain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possil e to make come from
women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink

escaped serious operations.

that no small filter which allows a
good stream of water to pass removes

the peril to the public. who SO often
believe that a couple of inches Of
sand or charcoal preserves them
from all harm. As matter of fact
expert engineers are practically
agreed that IS inches Of sand above
drains, and that well covered with
the sediment filter, are necessary to
obtain efficiency.
Some of the larger household filters
are efficient when flied with fine fl

and infusorial earth, which only al
