Praise Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound as the
Greatest Remedy for
Worran's Ills.

New Haven, Conn. For two years
| suffered with q female weakness,
pains in my back and painful periods,
and was so weak and tired that was
not able to do my work. A friend told
me to use Lydia E. Pinkham' s Vegetable
Compound and it gave me great relief.
My pains left me and / am now able to
do my work and feel fire. You can pub
lish my testimonial andif your Vegetable
Compound does others as much good as
it has me l will be very much pleased
Mrs. CHARLES E. MORGAN, 81 Sea
Street, New Haven, Conn.
The reason Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound is so successful is
because it contains the curative,
strengthening properties Of good old
fashioned roots and herbs, which act
directly on the female organism.
There are women everywhere who
long for children in their homes yet are
denied this happiness on account OF
some functional disorder which in most
cases would readily yield to Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Such women should not give up hope
until they have given this wonderful
medicine trial, and for special advice
write Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine, Co.,
Lynn, Mass. The result of 40 years
experience is at YOUR service.

comparatively short time you will have
no desire for tobacco. the craving will
have left you. With the nicotine poison

Improved scientific agriculture Is

1t has manifested itself in this coun-

reason for pesSinism. There never
was . time in the history Of our coun-
