A Tannpr New York Lady Tells
6 of a Wonderful Cure :
Mr trouble was witli the OTarieaj
I am tall, and the doctor said I grew
too fast for my strength.. I suffered
dreadfully from inflammation and
doctored continually, but got no help.
I suffered from terrible dragging sen
sation! with the most awful pains low
down in the side and pains in the back,
and the most agonizing' headaches.
No one knows what I endured. Often
I was sick to the stomach. &nd every
little while I would be too sick to go
to work, for threo or four days ; I work
in a large store, and I suppose stand
ing on my feet all day made me worse.
"At the suggestion of a friend of
;ny mothers I began to take Lydia
E. l'inicnanrs voifetaoio com
pound, and it is simply wonderful.
I felt better after the first two or thre?
doses ; it seemed as though a weight
was taken off my shoulders ; I con
tinned its use until now I can truth
fully say I am entirely cured. Young
girla who are always paying doctor's
bills without getting any help as I did,
ought to take your medicine. It
xtsts so much less, and it is sure to
ear them. Yours troly, Adelaide
