We know of no other medicine which has been so suc- cessful in relieving the suffering of women, or secured so many genuine testimonials, as has Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. In almost every community you will find women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg- etable Compound. Almost every woman you meet has either been benefited by it, or knows some one who has. In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files con- taining over one million one hundred thousand letters from women seeking health, in which many openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by j taking Lydia E, Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. ds Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has saved many women from. surgical operations. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is made ex- = clusively from roots and herbs, and is perfectly harmless. a The reason why it is so successful is because it contains ~“ ingredients which act directly upon the female organism, = restoring it to healthy and normal activity. Thousands of unsolicited and genuine testimonials such i as the following prove the efficiency of this simple remedy. } of Minneapolis, Minn.: —“T was a great sufferer from female troubles which caused a weakness and broken down condition as of the system.
