"I had inflammation and falling
of the womb, and inflammation of
orarlei) and was in great pain. I took
medicine prescribed by a physician,
but it did me no good. At last I heard
of Lyclla E. Pinkham' Vegetable Com
pound, and after using it faithfully I
am thankful to say I am a well women.
I would advise all suffering women to
seek advice of Mrs. Pinkham." Mat.
G. H. Cuappell, Gtu.Hr Pass, 111.
" For several years my health was
miserable. I suffered tho most dread
ful pains, and was almost on the verge
of insanity, I consulted one of the
best physicians in New York, and he
pronounced my disease a fibroid tumor,
advising an operation without delay,
saying that it was my only ohance for
life. Other doctors prescribed strong
and violent medicine, and one said I
was incurable, another told me my
only salvation was galvanic batteries,
which I tried, but nothing relieved me.
One day a friend called and begged me
to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable '
Compound. I began its use and took
several bottles. From the very first
bottle there was a wonderful change
for the better. The tumor has disap
peared entirely and my old spirits have
returned. I heartily recommend your
medicine to all suffering women."
