No other medicine has been so
successful in relieving the suffering
of women or received SO many gen.
uine testimonials as has Lydia Z.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
In every community you will find
women who have been restored to
heal.h by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg

one you meet has either been bene-
fitted by it, or has friends who have.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at
Lynn, Mass, any womananydaymay
see the files containing over one mil
lion one hundred thousand letters
from women seeking health, and
here are the letters in which they
openly state over their own sigma
lures that they were cured by Lydia
f.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has saved many women
from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is made from roots and
herbs, without drugs, and is whole
some and harmless.
The reason why Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound is so
successful is because it contains in
gradients which act directly upon

Women who are suffering from
those distressing ills peculiar totheir
sex should not lose sight of these
facts or doubt the ability Of Lydia
