WHEN YOU) BACK ACHES.
By MARGARET L. BRIGGS.
(AU. HIGHT KKSF.IU KD )
It In ft f.ct thjt twnftath every t>* k< he there lurk th (rmveftt
p<*iftlbtltt.e' Veer* of effort on the |>ur*. of men, r. 4 column
after column of newej.*p*r *pic In every Jouri dl In the country hve
fftil.i to imprrtw on women that their batka-he is merely a lgn. that
real trouble exla-e eotw-mhere
Many w..m*n even now to-day. with all th* light that has been
throwr. on the eubject. endure back > he rlkht alony <lay after day and
call it rheumalm They actually' treat It with aurfaee applications of
liniment, and ao through the dally m -ery hop.ng that a change In the
weather will rellete them.
The Ignorance concerning backa".ne le not confined to women them
aetvee, but to their .loctor ae well, for. singular n It may eeem. many
practicing physician* fall to dlagnoee backache aa n symptom only They
do not recognise the kidney or Mad ter trouble, the womb or ovarian
trouble* that may be, and one of which *ur*ly la making the backache,
as a sigr.ul to hunt for something that I* going w rong.
Of course there come* a time wh n the < ov< n f< ot of backache shows
Itself ar 1 the mruggle then le for ;!• ..r l< vt. TW no ttagfl ration
It Is going on all around ua. dally, hourly. Women arc Ul with such a
complication of derangements that one who understands wonders how
they stand on thtr feet. They keep going, attending to their duties un
til the day come when surrender must be made to the real trouble.
Profound Ignorance reuses this negh-ct. What woman would know
ingly let hersrlf drift Into the grip of kidney complaint or uterine dis
order’ As a matter of fact, there should be text written on the minds
of every woman in tht* country: "If your back sches write to Mra
Plnktsam." Tou can get more direr* and valuable advice out of one letter
whlrh will eome prompily In reply to yours than you can In years of trial
and consultation with phy.-|e|un Mr. Pinklinm Is authority on las ka-he
and her medl-lne Is Its conqueror. Sit knows what hickacha Is. Her
flies are filled with letters from women she ha* cured of It.
In curing their backache she has really cured them of the troubles
that produced the backache. These troubles are strictly w’ithln the field
of work occupied so successfully and so long by I.yd, it E. Plnkham's
Veg. table Compound Thlr Is a medicine which will not cure all the Ilia
that fl*h Is heir to. but for the troubles orginating In the feminine
generative system It has no e>pinl In the world, and the willing teellmony
of thmiearuis of women will and does support this statement.
Mrs Ptnkhsim give* an earnest Invitation to women to write to her
at I.ynti, Mas* for advice about their health. This Is surely the easiest
way to be helped nnd put on th# right track, for no person la so well
qualified to give advice to women who are ailing.
When y .ii write t.. Mrs Ptnkhnm you do so in perfe-t rmnfldar.ca.
for all the correspondence Is carried on by women, end by women only.
Tell Mrs Plnkhum the story of your backache and all the other peculiar
ities which make you feel puzzled a out yourself. You will understand
after following h<-r advice the gratefulness of the women who write of
their cure—you will he one of the grn teful ones yourself.
