It all lies in the care she bestows upon herself and in keeping at bay those dread ills peculiar to her sex. The flashing eye, the elastic step and the clear complexion never accompany organic troubles. The distressed ex- precision, lassitude, headaches and mental depression are only the tell tale symptoms. Women so troubled should take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound. that simple remedy made from roots and herbs, and re- store their health to a normal condi- tion.
