REMARKABLE RECOVERY Extraordinary Curative Power of Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound. Philadelphia, Pa. " I want to let you enow what good Lydia E. Pinkham's Ve « etable Com pound has done me. I had organic trou fJF *»..> bles and am going trough the Change dgmßM of Life. I was tatfen ■ with a pain in my t '^Foi side 211(1 a bai head * ache. I could not Ih % l- e down, could not :f eat or sleep. I suf »l, something I'' , tor's medicine did me no good at all—my pains got worse Instead of better. I began taking the Vegetable Compound and felt a change from the first. Now I feel fine and ad vise any one going through the Change of Life to try it, for it cured me after I had given up all hopes of getting better. You can publish this and I will tell any one who writes to me the good it has done me."—Mrs. MARGARET DAN'Z 7 43 N. 25th Street, Phila., Pa. It hardly seems possible that there is a woman in country who will con tinue to suffer without giving Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial after all the evidence that is continually being published, proving beyond contra diction that this grand old medicine has relieved more suffering among women than any other medicine in the world. Prayed for Cure Finds it After 10 Years Food Would Sour and Boil —Teeth Like Chalk Mr. Herbert M. Gessner writes from his acme in Berlin, N. H.: I had stomach trouble over ten years; kept getting worse. I tried everything for relief but it came back worse than ever. Last fall I got awfully bad; could only eat ight leaf bread and tea. In January I got 50 bad that what I would eat would sour md boil; my teeth would be lrke chalk. I suffered terribly. I prayed every day for something to cure me. One day I read about EATOXIC and told my wife to get aie a box at the drug store as I was going to work at 4 p. m. I took one-third of it md began to feel relief; when it was :hree-fourths gone, I felt fine and when it was used up I had no pains. Wife got me mother box but I have felt the pain but twice. I used five tablets out of the new box and I have no more stomach trouble. Now I -write to tell vou how thankful I am that I heard of EATOXIC. I feel like a new man; I eat what I like, drink plenty of water, and it never hurts me at all.
