All the summer houses, the trellis, ETC.. which
one sees In these old Virginia gardens are OF
frame construction. the wood usually being paint

estates supplement the hedges are of brick. The
gardens were established too long ago to admit
of the Introduction of the concrete products
which have done so much for the establishment
Of the latter-day garden. Almost without excep-

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 pc
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
