TUm0RS CONQUERED
Overwhelming Proof that Lydia &. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound Succeeds.

One of the greatest triumphs of
Lydia E. Pinkhans Vegetable Com
pound is the conquering of woman's
dread enemy Tumor,
The growth of a tumor is so in
sidious that frequently it's presence
is wholly unsupported until it is we'll
advanced.
So called wandering pains" may
come from its early stages or the
presence of danger may be made
manifest by excessive monthly periods
accompanied by unusual pain, from
the abdomen through the groin and
thigh.
If you have mysterious pains, if
there are indications of Inflammation
or displacementS, secure a bottle OF
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and
herbs, right away and begin it's use.
The following letters should con-
vince every suffering woman of its
virtue, and that it actually does
