A woman is sick—some tlisoaso peculiar to horsex is fast dcvoloping in her system Who goes to her family physician tin<i tells him u story, hut not the whole story. Slie holds back something, loses her head, become* agi tated. forgets what she wants to say. und finally conceal* what she ought to have told, aud this completely mystifies the doctor. V Is it a wonder, therefore, that the doctor tails to euro the disease ? Still we cannot blame the woman, for it is very em barrassing to detail some of the symptoms of her suffering, even to her family physician. This I* the reason why hundreds of thousands of women are now in corre spondence with ,N1 rs. rinkliaui, at Lynn, Maas. To her they can give every symptom, so that when she is ready to ndvi’se them slie is in possession of more facts from her correspondence with the patient than the physician can possibly oil tain through a personal interview. Following we publish a letter from a woman showing the result of a correspondence with Mrs. Pinkham. All such letters are considered absolutely confidential by Nlrs. Pink hum, and are never published in any way or manner without the consent in writing of the patient; but hundreds of women are so grateful for tin* health which Mrs. Pinkham and her medicine have been able to restore to them that they not only consent to publishing their letters, but write asking that'this he done in order that other women who suffer may be benefited by their experience. Mrs. Ella Rice. Chelsea, Wis., writes: • i Utah Mha I’Okhau :—For two v< ar I w troubled with falling and Inflammation of the womb.
