Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success Of Lydia {. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upon the Fast that it
Really Does Make Sick Women Well.

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
IAN women have been restored to
nealth by Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegeta-
ole Compound. Their letters are on file
n Mrs. PinShams Office, and prove this
statement to be a fact and not mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
IF this great medicine, and compared
with it all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound accomplished Sxch
widespread results for good?
Why has it lived and thrived and
done its glorious work for quarter of
a century?
Simply and surely because Of its ster-
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world SO
good for women's ills.

credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia Z. Pink
