Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, The universal indications of the approach of woman’s great enemy, inflammation and disease of the ovaries, are a dull throbbing pain, accompanied by a sense of tender- ness and heat low down in the side, with occasional shooting pains. On examination it may be found that the region of pain will show some swelling. This is'the first stage ot inflammation of the ovaries. “DEAR MRS, PINKHAM:—I wish to express my gratitude for the restored health and happiness Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com. pound has brought into my life. “| had suffered for three years with terrible pains at the time of menstruation, and did not know what the trouble was until the. doctor pronounced it inflammation of the ovaries, and proposed an opera- tion. “I felt so weak and sick that I felt sure that | could not survive the ordeal, and so | told him that | woyld not undergo it. The following week | read an advertisement in the paper of your Vegetable Compound in such an emergency, and so | decided to try it. Great was my joy to find that { actually improved after rae: two bottles, so 1 kept taking it for ten weeks, and at the end of that time | was cured. 1 had gained eighteen pounds and was in excellent health, and am now. “You surely deserve great success, and vou have my very best wishes,”—MISS ALIGE BAILEY, 50 North Boulevard, Atlanta, Ga.

If it had not been for your medicine | think | would have died. “1 will tell you how | suffered. 1 could hardly walk, was unable to Seep or eat. Men- struation was irregular, AtTast | had to stay in my béd, and flowed so badly that they sent ‘or a doctor, who said 1 had inflammation of the ovaries, and must go through an operation, as no medicjne could help me, but : l’could not do that. “1 received a little book of yours, and after reading it | concluded to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and | am now a well woman, | shall praise your medicine as long as | live, and also recom- mend the same to any one suffering as | was.””—MRS.
