All day long I am borne down. almost crushed by my burden of business. cares, and when come home in the evening the first thing l hear is a spiel about new traction engine Mrs Toplofty has bought or new fiagpole Mrs. Bejinks got at a rummage sale. Then, know ing that my heart is too big for my body, you work me for whatever you want and I yield. against my better Judgment

 T don't need to. No other woman asks me o build porches on top of the house and blow myself for swinging chairs. No other woman sits up at night trying to figure out ways and means to send me to the poor farm. I have been an easy mark long enough and you can't work me for any more expensive dofunnies.

 ''I know of so many cases where wo- men have been cured by Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound that I can say to every suffering woman if that medicine does not help her, there is nothing that will."-Mrs. JANETzKI, 2963 Arch St., Chicago, III.
 This is the age of substitution, and women who want a cure should insist upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound just as this woman did, and not accept something else on which the druggist can make little more profit.
 Women who are passing through this critical period or who are suffering from any of those distressing ills pe- culiar to their sex should not lose sight of the fact that for thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which is made from roots and herbs, has been the standard remedy for fe- male ills. In almost every community you will find women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound.
