MRS. ELVA BARBER EDWARDS

There are three critical stages in wonan's life which leave their mark in her career. The first of these stages is womanhood, or the change from care free girl to budding womanhood, The second is motherhood, and the third is Change of Life.
 Perils surround each of these stages, and most of the misery that comes to women through ill health dates from one or another of these inn portant crises.
 Women should remember that Lydia E. Pinlkham's Vegetable Compound made from native roots and herbs has carried thousands of young girls over the critical period of puberty, has prepared mothers for childbirth, and in later years carried them safely through the change of life more sue cessfully than any other remedy in the world. Thousands of testimonials from grateful persons, two of which are here published, substantiate this fact beyond contradiction.
 Mrs George Walters of Woodlawr, III. writes
 Dear Mrs Pinkham:-

Of Interest to Women.


 Every woman naturally should be healthy and strong. but great many women, unfortunately. are not, owing to the unnatural condition of the lives we lead. Headache. backache and a general tired condition are prevalent amongst the women of today, and to relieve these conditions women rush to the druggists for a bottle of some preparation supposed to be particular ly for them, and ntaining-nobody knows what. If they would just get a box of Brandreth's Pills, and take them regularly every night for a time, all their trouble would disappear, as these pills regulate the organs of the feminine system. The same dose al ways has the same effect, no matter how long they are used.
 Brandreths pills have been in use for over a century, and are for sale everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.
