TO MAKE SAFE THE MONEY IN BANKS.

Do you ever worry about the safety Of the
money you have deposited in the bank? DO
you realize that such small sum as 43 cents

safe money deposited in banks and there is
so much to be gained at such a comparatively
small cost it seems reasonable to suppose that

For Sick Women
To Consider

FIBsT.-That almost every operation

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,

SECOND The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female Ills is Lydia

diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women tn be strong, curing backa.he,
nervousness, kidney troubles, in1am-
nation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacemcntS, reCud ating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. II has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
THIRD.-The great volume of unso-
icited and grateful testimonials on file

time published by permission, give alb
