small yellow or red tomatoes; put
them in a colander and plunge them
into boiling water for a moment.
Remove the skins; do not break the
cover the bottom of a por-
celain-lined kettle with a portion OF
the sugar; put in a layer of tomatoes
and the remainder Of the sugar: do
not have more than two layers of to-
matoes. Place the kettle IN a mod
crate fire and cook slowly until the

the clear brain and steady hand re-
suit from the healthy appetite fol-
lowed by the proper digestion OF food.
"For the past five years" writes a
railroader, II have been constantly
troubled with indigestion. Every
doctor I consulted seemed to want to

til I was almost starved; then, when
they would let me eat, the indiges-
ton would be right back again.
"Only temporary relief came from
remedies, and / tried about all OF
them I saw advertised. About three
months ago a friend advised me to
try Grape-Nuts food. The very first
day / noticed that my appetite was
satisfied, which had not been the case

E. PINKHAM

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 u Western
Plains to-day can produce roots ana
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
culiar ills, more potent and efhca-
cious than any combination ofdrugs
lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman'sllls.
