Question

do you know Of any woman who ever received any
benefit from taking Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com.
poundi"
If any woman who is suffering with any ailment peculiar
to her sex will ask her ~neighbors this question, she will DO
surprised at the result. There is / hardly a community in
this country where women cannot be found who have been
restored to health by this famous old remedy, made
exclusively from a simple formula of roots and herbs.
During the past 80 years we have published thousands
of letters from these grateful women who have been cured
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and never
in all that time have we published a testimonial without
the writer's special permission. Never have we knowingly
published a testimonial that was not truthful and genuine.
Here is one just received a few days ago. If anyone doubts
that this is a true and honest statement of 4 woman's expert
ence with Lydia E.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound write
and ask her.
Houston, Tcxas:-" When first began taking Lydia +. Pink
sick for three years with female troubles, chronic dyspepsia,
and a liver trouble. L had tried several Doctors medicines, but
nothing did me any good.
"FOr three years L lived on medicines and thought I would
never get well, when 1 read an advertisement Of Lydia l.. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, and was advised to try Il.
"My husband got IN one bottle Of tho Compound, and It did
me SO much good 1 continued Its use. 1 nm now n well woman
and enjoy the best of health.
II advise all women suffering from such troubles to give
regret 1t, for IL will surely euro you!"-Mrs. Bessie L. Hicks,
$40 Cleveland st., Houston.
Any woman who is sick and suffering is foolish surely
not to give such a medicine as this a trial. Why should It
not do her as much good as it did Mrs. Hicks.
