MRS HENRY LEE

Owing to modern methods of living
not one woman in n thousand an
proaches this perfectly natural change
without experiencing u train Of very
annoying and sometimes painful
symptoms.
This is the most critical period OF
her whole existence and every woman
who neglects the care of her health
at this time invites disease and pain.
When her system is in deranged
condition or she is predisposed to
apoplexy or congestion of any organ,
the tendency is ut this perl O d
likely to become active and with a
host of nervous irritations make life n
burden. At this time also cancers
and tumors are more liable to form
and begin their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as sense
OF suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
baclxaches, melancholia, dread Of inn
pending evil, palpitation of the heart,
irregularities, constipation and dizzi-
ness are promptly needed by intel
ligent women who are approaching
the period of life when this grea t
change may be expected.
