THE IDEAL WIFE.

One of the most successful men OF
this county recently wrote: 'fWfhat-
ever / am, and whatever success !
have attained | owe it all to my wife
She has ever been an inspiration and
the greatest helpmate OF my life" To
be such a successful wife should be
the ambition OF every woman. but
how impossible when dragged down
by headaches, backache, dragging
down pains, nervousness and "the
blues" Every woman in this condi-
ton should start at once to build up
her system by tonic of specific pow
ers. such as Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound, which for three
three genreaticns has been restoring
American women to health and con-
sequent happiness. 1t
