tells how she was permanently- cured
inflammation of the ovaries, and escaped
the surg.eon’s knife, bv the use of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound*
The universal indications of the app' ach of woman’s great enemy, inflam
mation and disease of the ovaries, are R dull throbbing pain, accompanied by
a sense of tenderness and heat low down in the side, with occasional
shooting pains. On examination it may be found that the region of pain will
show some swelling. This is the Jrst stage of inflammation of the ovaries.
“De.vr Mrs. Pinkiiam:—I wish to express my gratitude for the
restored health and happiness Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com
pound has brought into my life.
“I had suffered for three years with terrible pains at the time of
menstruation, and did not know what the trouble was until the doctor
pronounced it inflammation of the ovaries, and proposed an ojieration.
“ I felt so weak and sick that 1 felt sure that I could not survive the
ordeal, and so I told him that I would not undergo it. The following
week I read an advertisement in the paper of your Vegetable Compound
inauch an emergency, and so I decided to try it. Great Mas my joy tc
ftrft that I actually improved after taking two bottles, so I kept taking
it for ten weeks, and at the end of that time I was cured. I had gained
eighteen pounds and was in excellent health, and am now.
“ You surely deserve great success, and you have my very best
wishes.”—Miss Alice Bailey, 50 Xorth Boulevard, Atlanta, Ga.
Another woman saved from a surgical operation by Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Read what she says
“Bear Mrs. Pikkiiam:—I cannot thank
you enough for what your Vegetable Com
pound has done for me. If it had not been for
your medicine, I think I would have died.
“I will tell you how* I suffered. I could
hardly walk, was unable to sleep or eat. Men
struation was irregular. At last I had to
stay in my l>ed, and flowed so badly that
they sent for a doctor, who said I had in
flammation of the ovaries, and must go
through an operation, as no m dieine could help
me, but I could not do that.
“I received a little book of yours,
and after reading it, I concluded to try
Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable
Compound, and I am now a well
woman. I shall praise your medicine
as long as I live, and also recommend the same to anyone suffering as I
was.” — Mrs. Minnie Ottoson, Otho, Iowa.
