Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- ppund in severe cases of female ills, as they know by experience it can be re lied upon to effect a cure. The follow ing letter proves it. Dr. S.'C. Brigham, of 4 Brigham Park, Fitchburg, Mass., writes: “It gives mo great pleasure to sa^ that I have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound very efficacious, and often pre scribe it in my practice for female difficulties. “ My oiliest daughter found it very benefi cial fora female trouble some time ago.andmy youngest daughter is now taking it for a fe male weakness, and is surely gaining in health and strength. “ I freely advocate it as a most reliable s|)o- cific in all diseases to whii-h women are sub ject, and give it honest endorsement.” Women who are troubled with pain ful or irregular periods, bloating (or flatulency), weakness of organs, dis placements, inflammation or ulceration, can be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. If advice is needed write to Mrs. Pinkham. at Lynn, Mass. She is daughter-in-law of Lydia E.
