PaxtoM, Youngtowu, Worth Dakota, writes about- her strug cri e to regain health after the birth of lior little girl; " Dkah Miih. Pinkiiam: ? It is with pleasure that I add tuy testimony to your list, hoping that it may induce others to avail themaelves of ybur val uable medicine. "After the birth of my little girl, three years ago, ' my health was very poor. 1 hail leueorrhicu badly, and a terrible bearing-down pain which gradually grew worse, until 1 could do ti o work. Also had headache nearly nil the time, and d'u. v feelings. Men* bti tuitions were very profuse, appear ing every two weeks. ,l 1 took medicine from n good doctor, but it seemed to do no good. I was becoming alarmed over my condition, when I rend your advertisement in a paper. 1 sent at once for a bottle of Lydiu 10. Piukham's Vegetable Com pound, and after taking two thirds of Hie hot tie I felt so much better that I i.end for two more. After using three botlles I f< It as strong and well as any one. " I think it is the, best medicine for female weakness ever advert ised, and recommend it to every lady I meet suf fering from this trouble." Maternity is a wonderful experience (iml many women approach it wholly unprepared. Childbirth under right conditions need not terrify women. The ml vice of Mrs. Pink ham is freely offered to all expectant mothers, and her advice is beyond < pie.it ion the most valuable to be obtained. If Mrs. Pax ton had written to Mrs. Piukham be fore confinement she would have been saved much suffering. Mrs. PiuUhaiuV address is I/ynn, Mass. 1CI >1 H'ATIOIVAK. \ t it <?
