WOMAN AILING FORAYEAR Took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound— Happy Results Newcastle, Pa. —“I was all run down and everybody thought I was cline. 1 had been a il‘ n g for a year d® with pains in my ' right side so that I fig could hardly stand Sr & on m .V f ee t- When O ffil I walked 1 felt as » if something was falling. I was not q WH able to do any IlllUlk wRmM work and had a nurse most of the «Bj limp sh e B poke to me about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Veg etable Compound, so I gave it a fair trial. Some women think one bottle should cure them, but I did not stop at that. I took more and got better and am able ever since to do my own housework. There was a time, when 1 would complain of not feeling well, that my husband would say, ‘Go to the doctor. ’ But now he will tell me to get a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s, and it has always helped me. I have had druggists tell ma that they had something better, but they don’t tell me that now, for I take no other. I have been taking the Vegetable Com pound now for five years. Any wo man who cares to call or write, I will, be glad to tell her how it helped' me. —Mrs. Mabel List Sherba®, £ls Newell Ave., Newcastle, Pa. •FRECKLES AND HIS FRIENDS-- And He'll Help ~~ - Blosser MAS ME BEEN T&ASINgA L POM OUTSIDE .

Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod uct, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” It is very popu lar because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applica tions, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.
