Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to ceals what she ought to have told, and thus completely mystifies tho doctor. Is it any wonder, therefore, that the doctor fails to cure the disease? Still, we cannot blame the woman, for it is very embarrassing to detail some of the symptoms of her suffering, even to her family physician. It was for this reason that years ago Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., determined to step in and help her sex. Having had considerable experience in treating female ills with her Vegetable Compound, she encouraged the women of Amer- ica to write to her for advice in regard to their complaints, and being a woman, it was easy for her ailing sisters to pour into her ears every detail of their suffering. In this way she was able to do for them what the phy- sicians were unable to do, simply because she had tho proper information to work upon, and from the little group of women who sought her advice years ago, a great army of her fellow-beings are today constantly applying for advice and relief, and the fact that more than one hundred thousand of them have been successfully treated by Mrs. Pinkham during the last year is indicative of the grand results which are produced by her unequaled experience and training. No physician in the world has had such a training, or has such an amount of information at hand to assist in the treatment, of all kinds of female ilis, from the simplest local irritation to the most complicated diseases of the womb. This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham, in her Inbora at Lynn, Mass., is able to do more for the ailing women of America than the family physician. An woman, therefore, is responsible for her own suffering who will not take the trouble to write to Mrs. Pinkham for advice.

My memory grew short and I gave up all hope of getting well. Thus I dragged along. To please my sister I wrote toyou foradvice.
