 cine Go.

Women who are well often ask Are 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 Go. is that Lydia E.

SUDDEN DEATH
Caused by Disease Of the kidneys.

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys n
well known nowadays. As soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is
increased and the heart functions are
attacked. When the kidneys no longer
pour forth waste, uremic poisoning
occurs and the person dies, and the
cause is often given rs heart disease, or
disease of brain or lungs.
1t is good insurance against such a
risk to send 10 cents for a sample
package OF cAnuric " = the latest dis
covery Of DR.. Pierce. Also send a
sample OF your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel,

backache, frequent or scanty urine,
rheumatic pains here or there, or that
constant tired, worn-out feeling, it's
time TO write DR.. Pierce, describe your
symptoms and get his medical opinion
without charge-absolutely free. This

to be 81 times more active than lithia,
for it dissolyes uric acid in the system
as hot water does sugar.
