MRs.NELLlE Markham

A nervous irritable woman, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is source OF
misery to everyone who comes under
her influence, and unhappy and mis-
cradle herself.
Such. women not only drive hus-
bands from home but are wholly unfit
to govern children.
The ills of women act like a fire
brand upon the nerves, consequently
seven-tenths of the nervous prostra-
ton, nervous dependency, t h e
blues, sleeplessness, and nervous
irritability Of women arise from some
organic arrangement.
Do you experience fits of depression
with restlessness alternating with ex-
IRENE irritability &? Do you suffer
from pains in the abdominal region,
backache, bearing down pains.nervous
dyspepsia, sleeplessness, and almost
continually cross and snappyP If so,
your nerves are in shattered con-
dition and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing
in the world is better for nervous
troubles of women than Lydia K.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
made from native roots and herbs.
Thousands and, thousands of women
can testify to this fact.
Mrs. Nellie Markham, of Isl Morgan
