A TRAINED NURSE
After Years of Experience, Advises Women in
Regard to Their Health.
Mrs. Martha Fohlraan
Of 55 Chester Avenue,
Newark, N. J., who is a
graduate Nurse from the
Blookley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
six years -Chief Clinio
Nnrse at the Philadelphia
Hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantage of personal
exparience, besides her
professional education,
and what she has to say
may be absolutely relied
Upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she wns. They
can regain health in tho
same way. It is prudent
to heed such advice from
such a source.
Mrs, Pohlman writes:
" I am firmly persuaded,
after eight vears of experience
with Lydia E. Piukham's
Vegetable Compound, that it
is too safest and best medicine
for any sult'ering woman to
Use.
"Immediately after my
marriage I found that my
health began to fail me, I be
came weak and pale, with se
Tere bearing-down pains, fear
ful backaches and frequent
dlaiy spells. The doctors pre
. scribed for me, yet I did not
Improve. I would bloat after
ejattDa and freauentlv heroine
nauseated. I bad an acrid discharge and
pains down through my limbs so I could
hardly walk. It was as bad a case of female
trouble a I have ever known. Lydia E.
Plnkham's Vegetable Compound, however,
cured me within four months. Since that
time I have bad occasion to recommend it to
a number of patients suffering from all
forms of female difficulties, and I find that
while it is considered unprofessional to rec
ommend a patent medicine, I can honestly
recommend Lydln E. Pinkhain's Vegetable
Compound, for I have found that it cures
female tils, where ail other medicine fails. It
la a grand medicine for sick women."
Money cannot buy such testimony as
this merit alone can produce such ro
sulta, and the ablest specialists now
agree that Lydia E. Piukham's Vege
table Compound Is the most univer
sally' successful remedy for all female
diseases known to medicine.
