L e “I had been sick
@,»’-\ about twelve years,

tors. I had drag
ging down pains,
pains at monthly periods, bilious spells,
and was getting worse all the time. I
would hardly get over one spell when I
would be sick again. No tongue can tell
what I suffered from cramps, and at
times I could hardly walk. The doctors
said I might die at one of those times,
but I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta
ble Compound and got better right away.
Your valuable medicine is worth more
than mountains of gold to suffering wo
men.”’—Mrs. BERTHA MUFF, 503 N. 4th
Street, Louisiana, Mo.
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and herbs,
contains no narcotic or harmful drugs,
and to-day holds the record of being the
most successful remedy for female illswe
know of, and thousands of voluntary
testimonials on file in the Pinkham
laboratory at Lynn, Mass., seem to prove
this fact.
If you want special advice write to
Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. (confi

be opened, read and answered by a

Thursday evening the Gem Theater
was crowded with delighted listeners to
‘the songs and recitations as well as
the picture lovers. Miss Mildred
Brown’s two pieces were very amusing
and she imitated a distressed small boy
perfectly. Mrs. M. D. Hodges played
accompahiments for two songs by Mrs,
Henry Wyatt: ‘“The Wind is Whisper
iag Soft and Low,’”” and ‘‘ln the Gar
den of My Heart.”” Miss Regina Ram
bo’s imitation of Bessie Wynne in “‘Oh
You Beautiful Doll, was simply en
chanting. The pictures were also un
usually interesting.
