C. * » A FRIEND IN NEED A FRIEND INDEED Writes Mrs. Hardee Regarding Lydia L Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Los Angeles, Calif.-“I mnst tell you that I am a true friend to Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. I have taken it off and on for twenty years and lit has helped me change from a deli cate girl to a stou^ healthy woman. When 1 was married I was sick all the time until I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound. I was in bed much of my time with pains and had to have the doctor every month. One day I found a little book in my yard in Guthrie, Oklahoma, and I read it through and got the medicine—Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound—and took eight bottles and used the Sanative Wash. I at once began to get stronger. I have got many women to take it just by telling them what it has done for me. I have a young sister whom it has helped in the same way it helped me. I want you to know that I am a ‘friend indeed, for you were a ‘friend in need. ’ ” -Mrs. Georgs Hardee, 1043 Byram St., Los Angeles, California Let Lydia E.
