why WOMEN
Write LETTERS
To Lydia e. Pinkham Medi.
cine Co.

Women who are we'll often ask care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" "Are they truthful? ;"
"Why do women write such ~letters?"
In answer we say that never have we
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent of the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pm and suffering.
1t has relieved women from some o.
the worst forms of female ills, from dis.
placements, inflammation, liberation,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.

planned; she knew that the women Of
West Philadelphia would be glad of a
chance to buy gifts and baby clothes, not
,illy at reasonable prices, but in a quiet
place where everything was at hand.
so she made ready to supply them with
just such an opportunity. Her first idea
was to get the services of so-called
'decayed gentlewomen" for the fine
sewing, but she found through practical
experience that girls who were accus-
toned to working regularly were more
satisfactory and she now has a corps
of Spanish sewing girls who do ex-
quisite work.

through death or failure or something.
And those same girls had to stand the
most humliating things from friends and
relatives, because they could not earn
their own money and had to rely on the
kindness of others for their very living.
"Of course" she, continued, lots of
girls become social secretaries or COM
panions to elderly relatives; but that,
somehow. does not seem to me like really
earning your living. 1t is more like dis

Quits Ideness and Easygoing Life to Enter Real Bus-
ness-Decares Every Girl Should Learn How
to Do Something

ENORTY years ago girls with any social
Il standing at all were satisfied to lead
idle lives until they were married or to sit
at home and let their nearest male rela-
tive support them II they didn't marry.
meanwhile bemoanin the fate that pre-
vented them from having all the frills and
furbelows they wanted.
The girl of today Is an entirely different
type. If she has not what she wants or
IL the family fortunes are temporarily or
permanently impaired she goes out and
seeks a job or starts some money making
scheme for herself Many girls grown
tired of socety's frivolous demands have
gladly given IL up for the more purposeful
world of business.
OF this latter type is Miss Elizabeth
Coffin. one of the several Main Line girls
who have recently gone into business for
themselves. Miss Coffin had devoted a
