LYDIA {. PINKHAM

W. -LNu.HiIH H.MLN -HaN tH8HN.
Nature and a woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for WOman'S ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days Of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years In
the study Of drugs.
From the roots and herbs Of the
field Lydia e. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
cular ills, more potent and effica-
cious than any combination ofdrugs.
LydiS r.. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 5i5 NC. St,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
" Complete restoration TO health
means so much to me that for the sake
of other suffering women I am willing
TO make my troubles public.
"Fortwelve years / had been suffer
ing with the worst forms Of female ills.
During that time / had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what 1 suffered, and at timesI
could hardly walk. About two years
ago l wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
/ followed il, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. It Is
worth mountains Of gold to suffering
women
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
twill do for other suffering women.

juice of six oranges. When ready to serve
put a little cracked Ice in cocktail glasses,
then some of the pineapple and its juice,
three tablespoonfuls Of the Orange Juice,
allow to stand several minutes, then put
two Marachino cherries on top, and over
all pour a little orange juice. .,'

ribbon is of black velvet with long ends
hanging down the back. Other lingerie
