For Forty Years Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has Relieved
the Sufferings of Women.
It hardly seems possible that there is a woman in this
country who continues to suffer without giving Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial after all the evi-
dence that is continually being published, proving beyond
contradiction that this grand old medicine has relieved
more suffering among women than any other medicine in
the world.
