telling how Lydia E. Pinkham' S Vege-
table Compound has restored their
health when suffering with female ills.
This accounts for the enormous demand
for it from coast to coast. If you are

made from native roots and herbs and
contains no narcotics or harmful drugs.

mate the exact time this substitution

week or ten days. and as soon as
