Jtbne the rector of an Episcopal church

at home containing every word of it."
"You have not." said Dr. Doane.

"Well, send that book to me. I'd like
to see it"

When shown positive and reliable proof that a certain
.remedy had cured many cases of female ills, wouldn't any
sensible woman conclude that the same remedy would also
benefit her if suffering with the same trouble ?
Here are five letters from southern women which prove
the efficiency of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
LETTER FROM VIRGINIA.
Elliston, Va. " I feel it my duty to express my thanks to yoti and your "
great medicine. I was a sufferer from female troubles and had been con
fined in bed over one third of my time for ten month's. I could not do my
housework and had fainting1 spells so that my husband could not leave me
alone for five minutes at a time.
" IJow I owe my health to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Blood Purifier. Whenever I see a suffering woman I want to tell her what
these medicines have done for me and I will always Bpeak a good word for
them." Mrs. Robebt Blaxkenship, Elliston, Montgomery Co., Va.
LETTER FROM LOUISIANA.
New Orleans, La. "I wa3 passing through the Change of Life and be
fore 1 took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was troubled with
hot flashes, weak and dizzy feelings, backache and irregularities. I would'
get up in the morning feeling tired out and not fit to do anything.
' Since I have been taking your Compound and Blood Purifier I feel all
right. Your medicines are worth their weight in gold." Mrs. Gastow
Blonde au, 1541 Polymnia St., New Orleans, La. -
LETTER FROM FLORIDA.
Wauchula, Fla. " Some time ago I wrote to you giving you my symp
toms, headache, backache, bearing-down, and discomfort in walking, caused
by female troubles.
''I got two bottleB of Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and a
package of Sanative Wash and that was all I used to make me a well woman.
"I am satisfied that if I had done like a good many women, and had
not taTcen your remedies, I would have been a great sufferer. But I etarted
in time with the right medicine and got well. It did not cost very much
either. I feel that you are a friend to all women and I would rather use
your remedies than have a doctor." Mrs. Mattie Hodnot, Box 406, Wau
chula, Florida.
LETTER FROM WEST .VIRGINIA.
Martinsburjf, W. Va. " I am glad to say that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound has done wonders for my mother, daughter and myself. .
" I have told dozens of people about it and my daughter says that when,
she hears a girl complaining with cramps, she tells her to take, your Com
pound." Mrs. MAST A. Hockkitbbbbt, 712 N. 3rd St., Martinsburg, W. Va.
ANOTHER XETTER FROM VIRGINIA.
Newport News, Va. "About five years ago I was troubled with Buch pains
and bloating every month that I would have to goto bed. .
"A friend told me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
I scon found relief. The medicine strengthened me in every way and my
doctor approved of my. taking it. ...... ... .. .
"I wiU'be glad if my testimony will help some one who Is suffering
from female weakness." Mrs. W. J. Blaytoit, 1029 Hampton Ave., Newport
News, Va. -f '
