Dear Estelle-After three years IA
wage Garner IN this big city. Jen-
ME Davis has at last met a real
man"
Three years ago Jennie left home
TO work in the wonderful city. She
was true girl and her ambitions
didn't obscure her dreams of mar
riage As many ether girls co, she
came 10 the city TO earn living till
husband beckoned.
Al home, in her little town, Jennie
had beaux galore. She had parlor
20 entertain them in, comfy chairs,
and piano. There were a porch
and a garden, a mother and homi-
ness. These things are inducements
to bedux, you know.
In the city Jennie went TO an or
ganized home" whore room and
board were given at nominal fee
TO low wage working girls" Jen-
MES mother felt she would he safe
in such n home" She was. She
was comfortable and we'll fed. One
night when Jennie had beer there a
month, vaguely wondering when she
would meet some nice man. she dis
covered riot II the vicinity OF the
parlor. One girl was entertaining a
beau"
half the girls in the place either
found excuse TO pass through the
room where the couple sat, or peep
ed giggling in at the door. The poor,
embarrassed beau" told the girl that
If she ever expected 10 see him
again she'd have to leave that "old
maids refuge
In three months Jennie never met
man al that home" She eft ii
for typical big city roomirg house.
There were men about the place
and that made the prospect bright.
Not that she openly sought them,
but she felt the unDaturalness Of the
COSBY, feminine hcme."
In that rooming house Jennie made
the acquaintance CT no male person!
The landlady didn't bother about
lntroductions Besides. Jennie soon
decided she didn't want to know
the men she saw in a cheap room
ing house. Her cousin, Jim, from
home, called one evening. There was
no parlor, so. the landlady permit
ting, Jennie entertained him in her
own room. Next day the men begar
20 smile at her and osle her. Ii
indignation and disgust she moved
again
At the mex. rooming house thu
girls met their "beauX" on the stree
or at the movie" The fact didn'
bother Jennie, FOR she didn't know
any men and had about decided she
didn't want to.

SUGGESTIONS TO
SICK WOMEN
How Many Are Restored To
Health.

First. Almost every operation in
our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements, pain
in the side, burning sensation in the
stomach, bearing down pains, nervous
ness, dizziness and sleeplessness.
SecOnd.-Themedicine mostsuccess-
full in relieving female ills is Lydia f.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound 1t
regulates and strengthens the organism;
it overcomes disease.
For forty years it has been making
women strong and well, relieving back
ache, nervousness, liberation and in
flammation, weakness, displacements,
irregularity and periodic pains. 1t
has also proved invaluable in prepar
ing for childbirth and the Change Of
Life.
Third. The great number Of unso-
Iicited testimonials on file at the Pink
ham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass, many
of which are from time to time published
by permission, are proof of the value Of
Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, in the treatment Of female ills.
FOurth.-Every ailing woman in the
United States is cordially invited to
write to the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine
