=A Great Preventive.=--The most abundant testimony shows that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is an almost certain preventive to
miscarriage or abortion. It gives strength to the uterine walls, quiets
the first approach of pain, controls any spasmodic contractions, and
brings about such a healthy condition that all danger is averted. I
cannot speak too strongly of this Vegetable Compound for these cases. So
many mothers have written us that they are now happy in the possession
of a child, when, for time and time again, they would have a miscarriage
at the third or fourth month.
=Keep it in the House.=--Every pregnant woman should always keep in the
house a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. She does not
know the day when she will need it, and when that day comes she will
require it promptly.
At any time when there is soreness, tenderness, unusual pain, any
unnatural discharge, or any symptom whatever that shows pregnancy is not
pursuing a perfectly natural course, she should begin to use the
Vegetable Compound at once. It should be taken in small doses two or
three times a day, just enough to produce its strengthening, quieting,
and healing effects.
If she finds she has been overdoing, has strained herself in any way, or
fears that some unfortunate result will follow an extra hard day's
labor, let her take a few doses of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
as a certain preventive to future trouble.
=The One Universal Cure.=--In other words, I repeat what I have already
said so many times, that whenever there is trouble of any kind with any
part of the female generative organs, whenever these do not act in a
perfectly natural manner, then the Lydia E. Pinkham Vegetable Compound
is indicated; for it is the one great, universal and never-failing cure
for all the affections which fall to the lot of womankind.
=Makes Mother and Child Strong.=--Many thousands of wives owe the fact
that they are mothers to-day to this grand remedy, and thousands upon
thousands of children are happy, strong and robust because their
mothers were wise enough to use it. Keep it in the house. Do not be a
day without it. Have it where you can reach it at any time. Put your
confidence in it. 'Twill prove a never-failing friend to you in time of
need.
=Mothers' Marks.=--There is a wide belief among women that any strong
impression made at a certain time during pregnancy will exert a powerful
influence in producing some defect or deformity in the child. The
opposite is also held, to the effect that beautiful objects, delightful
music, and everything elevating and ennobling will have a favorable
effect upon the body or mind of the child.
