The following letter is only one OF
many thousands which are on file in
the Pinkham Office, and go to prove
beyond question that Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound mus6 be a
remedy of great merit, otherwise it
could not produce such marvellous
results among sick and ailing women.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
ssAbout nine months ago [ was a great suf-
ferer with female trouble, which caused me
severe pain, extreme nervousness and fire.
0uent headaches, from which the doctor
failed to relieve me. tried Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, and within q
short time felt better, and after taking five
bottles of it was entirely cured. therefore
heartily recommend your Compound as a
splendid female tonic. 1t makes the monthly
periods regular and without pain; and what
q blessing it is to find such a remedy after so
MANY doctors fail to help you. am pleased
to recommend it to all suffering women."-

periods, weakness of the stomach,
Indigestion, bloating, pelvic catarrh,
nervous prostration, dizziness, faint

cations of female weakness, or some
