Mrs. LIZZIE COURTNEY, .10S 9Th Ave,
West, Oskaloosa, Iowa.
Why will women drag along from day
to day, year in and year out, suffering
such misery as did Mrs. Courtney, when
such letters as this are continually being
published. Every woman who suffers
from displacements, Irregularities, IN
fammstion, liberation, backache, ner-
vousness, or who is passing through the
Change of Life should give this famous
root and herb remedy, Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, a trial. For
special advice write Lydia Z. Pinkham

Of its long experience is at your service.
