By Applying Sloan's Liniment to
Forehead You Can Stop
the Severe Pains
Many headaches are of a neuralgic
nrimn. The symptoms of such head-
acheTare inteW and lingering pains
intne brow, temples or back of the head.
There is one certain relief that has
been known and recommenaea ior
years back, Sloan's Liniment. One
application and the dull pain is practi
cally gone. It is easily applied without
rubbing. Rubbing is unnecessary, as
Sloan's Liniment quickly penetrates to
the seat of trouble. .
Aching muscies,rneumausm,Dnuses,
lumbago, chilblains, sprains and stiff
neck can also be most effectively treated
witll gran's Liniment. Cleaner than
mussy plasters or ointmente . it does
not stain tfce skin or clog the pores.

Eere i3 a letter from a woman who
had to work, but was too weak end suf
fered too much to continue. How she
regained health :
' Frankfort, Ky. " I suffered so much
with female weakness that I could not
do my own work,
had to hire it done.
I heard so much
about Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable
Compound that I
tried it. I took three
bottles and I found
it to be all you
claim. Now I feel as
well as ever I did and
am able to do all my
own work aerain. I
recommend it to any woman suffering
from female weakness. You may pub
lish my letter if you wish. Mrs. James
CONLEY, 516 St. Clair St.,Frankfort,Ky.
No woman suffering from any form of
lemale troubles should lose hope until
she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound a fair trial.
This famous remedy, the medicinal
ingredients of which are derived from
native roots and herbs, has for forty
year3 proved to be a most valuable tonic
and invigorator of the female organism.

It Always Helps
says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman's
tonic. She says further: "Before 1 began to use
Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. Alter taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now,' I do all my housework,
as well as run a big water mill.
I wish every suffering woman would give
The Woman's Tonic
a trial. I still use Cardui when I feel a little bad.
and it always does me good."
Headache, backache, side ache, nervousness,
tired, worn-out feelings, etc, are sure signs of woman
ly trouble. Signs that you need Cardui, the woman's
tonic You cannot make a mistake in trying Cardui
for your trouble. It has been helping weak, ailing
women for more than fifty years.
