Terre Hill, Pa.—“ Kindly permit me to give you my testimonial in favor of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound. When I first began taking it I was suffering from female troubles for some time and had almost all kinds of { aches —pains in low er part of back and in sides, and press ing down pains. I could not sleep and Since I have taken jj^lE had no appetite. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound the aches and pains are all gone and I feel like a new woman. I cannot praise your medicine too highly.’’—Mrs. Augustus Lyon, Terre Hill, Pa. It is true that nature and a woman’s work has produced the grandest remedy for woman’s ills that the world has ever known. From the roots and herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham, forty years ago, gave to womankind a remedy for their peculiar ills which has proved more efficacious than any other combination of drugs ever com pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is recognized from coast to coast as the standard remedy for woman’s ills. In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass., are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seek ing health —many of them openly state overtheirown signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound; and in some cases that it has saved them from surgical operations.

When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue It causes conges tion and that dull, throbbing, sicken ing headache. Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and pois ons In the bowels. A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep—a 10-cent box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. MILLEN NOTES WALTER E.

A few thousand dollars spent in educating the pub lic to prevent disease may save many thousands that might have to be spent in stamping out an epidemic. Municipal and state health officials interested in what is being done in this direction are invited to address the Bureau of Advertising, American News paper Publishers Association, World Building, New York.
