A AN Miss Gannon, Sec’y Detroit Amateur Art Association, tells young women what to do to avoid pain and suffering caused by female troubles. “Dear Mrs. PingraM:—I can conscientiously recommend Lydia Bs Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to those of my sisters suffering with female weakness and the troubles which so often befall women. suf- fered for months with general weakness, and felt so weary that I had hard work to keep up. I had shooting pains, and was utterly miserable. In my distress I was advised to use Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and it was a red letter day to me when I took the first dose, for at that time my restoration began. In six weeks I was a changed ‘woman, perfectly well in every respect. I felt o elated and happy that I wantall women who suffer to get well as I did.”—Miss GuiLa GANNoN, 859 Jones 8t., Detroit, Mich., Secretary Amatenr Art Association. It is clearly shown in this young lady’s letter that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound will certainly cure the sufferings of women ; and when one considers that Miss Gannon’s letter is only one of the countless hundreds which we are continually publishing in the newspapers of this country, the great virtue of Mrs. Pink- ham’s medicine must be admitted*by all ; and for the absolute cure of all kinds of female ills no substitute can possibly take its place. Women should bear this important fact in mind when they go into a drug store. and be sure not to accept anything that is eclaimed to be ** just as good ” as Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vngnmh{e Compound, for no other medicine for female ills has made 5o many actual cures. "How Another Sufferer Was Cured. “Dgar Mgrs. Pinxaam : — I cannot praise your wonderful remedi enough, for they have done me more good than all the doctors I have had. For the last eight years and more I suffered with female troubles, was very weak, could not do my housework, also had nervous pros- tration. Some days I would remain uneonscions for a whole day and night. My neighbors thought I could never recover, but, thanks to your medicine, I now feel like a different woman. “T feel very grateful to you and will recommend Lydia E. Pink~ ham’s Vegetable Compound to all. If has now been four years since I had the last spell of nervous prostration. I only weighed ninety- eight pounds at that time ; now I weigh one hundred and twenty-three. “1 consider your Vegetable Compound the finest remedy made. Thanking you many times for the benefit I received from your medicine, Iremain, Yours truly, Mrs. J. H. FAruER, 2809 Elliott Ave., St. Louis, Mo.” Remember Mrs. Pinkham’s advice is free and all sick women are foolish if they do not ask for it. She speaks from the widest experience, and has helped multitudes of women. $5000 = above ENT if we cannot forthwith produce the original Jetters and signatnres of timronials, which will prove their absoiute gentineness.
