Des Moines, Iowa.—" Foot years ajo
^ was vary sick and my life vu nearly
spent. The doctor#
stated that I would
never get well with-
out an operation
and that without it
I would not live one
year. My husband
objected to any
operation and got
me some of LydiaE.

ble C om pound. I took
it and commenced
to get better and am now well, am
stout and able to do my own housework.
I can recommend the Vegetable Com-
pound to any woman who is sick and
run down as a wonderful strength and
health restorer.' My husband says I
would have been in my grave ere this
if it had not been for your Vegetable
Compound."—Mrs. Blanche Jeffer-

bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. Take a
spoonful aad if it doesn't straighten
you right up and make you feel tins

the store and get your money Dod-
son's Liver Tone is destroying the
sale of calomel because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore

bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging yout
