They had first been turned into

WOMAN'S ILLS MAKE UNHAPPY
HOME

There is no question but what the ills
OF women conspire against domestic har-
mony. The husband cannot understand
these troubles and the physician finds
1t hard to cure them; therefore the over
worked wife and mother continues to
drag around day in and day out with
headaches and backAche, fretful and
nervous.
Such women should be guided by the
experience OF women whose letters We
are continually publishing in this paper.
Many OF them declare that they have
been restored to health, strength and
consequent happiness by Lydia z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after doc
tors and all other medicines had failed
to help them. II will surely pay women
who suffer from such ailments TO try II.
