Advertising, however, tliougu it can do much for a ( thing, cannot do everything.

It has solid worth. < Women everywhere have learned this faet, and tiie result is that there is a lasting and absolutely unequaled 1 demand for it. It has the largest sale ? of any remedy for female ills in the world, and this has been the ease for . years. I The reason for this is that Mrs. Pinkham claims nothing that she is { not entitled to claim. She cni*ldo all that she says she can do, and her | twenty years of experience make her advice invaluable. Ilerexperience has i been not only long but world-wide, ' and she has helped more women back to health than any one else in the world.
