night, and a better appetite. I have rec-
ommended it already to all my friends

troubles causing sleeplessness, head-
ache, hysteria, ‘‘ihe blues,’ Lydia E.

found a splendid medicine. For the
woman of middle age who is passing
through the trials of that period, it can
be depended upon to relieve the troubles
common at that time.
Remember, the Vegetable Compound
has a record of nearly fifty years of
service and thousands of women praise
its merit, as does Mrs. Englemann.
You should give it a fair trial now,
