and herbs, is unparalleled. It may be
used with perfect confidence by women
who suffer from displacements, inflam-
nation, liberation, fbroid tumors, ir-
regularities, periodic pains, backache
bearing-down feeling, f1atulency, indi-
gestion, dizziness, or nervous prostra-

For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has been the
standard remedy for female ills, and
suffering women owe it to themselves
to at least give this medicine a trial.
Proof is abundant that it has cured
thousands of others, and why should it
not cure you?
