WHY WOMEN
WRITE LETTERS
To Lydia E. Pinkham Medi.
cine Co.

Women who are well often ask "Are
the letters which the Lydia 4. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" Are they truthful ? I"
"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 n 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 +. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is hat Lydia z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
nce burdened with pain and suffering.
1t has relieved women from some of
the worst forms of female ills, from dis
placements, inflammation, liberation,
Irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
1t is impossible for any woman who
is well and who &%O~SN
has never suffered NV @XNHNI
to realize how these mn ~\M
poor, suffering wo- NJ -SG
men feel when re- S~
stored to health; ~
their keen desire to T\ ~
help other ome MN @NAI&W

they did. ISSx s ~
