"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:--I have read of your medicine making so many cures,
and have been advised to write to you, but I feel that it is of no use.
The doctor says that I have womb trouble, but he does not seem to help
me a great deal. I have such a weakness across me most of the time--have
backache, am very nervous, and am troubled with leucorrhoea. I am very
weak, cannot walk any distance or stand long unless I ache all over. I
would like to know it you think your medicine would do me any
good."--MRS. SAMUEL FRAKE, Prospect Plains, N.J.
"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:--I cannot thank you enough for what =Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound= has done for me. When I first wrote to you
I had suffered for years. The doctor said I had congestion of the womb,
was troubled with my kidneys and bladder, my back ached dreadfully all
the time, and I suffered with bearing-down feeling, could scarcely walk
about to do my own housework. I stopped doctoring with the physician and
took your medicine, and am now able to do my own work, have no more
backache or weakness across me, and can do all my own work. I cannot
praise your medicine enough, and would advise all suffering women to try
it."--MRS. SAMUEL FRAKE, Prospect Plains, N.J.
The Medicine that has Restored a Million Women to Health is Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

My daughter sixteen years old, has been in very poor health ever since
the change to womanhood a year ago. She had the best of doctors but they
did her little good. She complained of feeling tired all the time, did
not care for anything, pain in her back, very nervous, poor in flesh and
so pale. It made her tired to ride or walk any distance, could not go to
school. Some thought she could not live long. Through the use of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound she is now in the best of health. I feel
that your medicine saved her life.

About a month ago I took a very bad cold and it was at time of
menstruation and it stopped my menses. I began to have pains in my
ovaries and at last I had inflammation of the ovaries and pain in my
kidneys and bladder. I got over that but did not flow hardly any. The
last time I came around I began to have that pain in my right ovary and
it lasted a week and I have been flowing for a week. I would like some
advice as I do not know what to think of my case.

About three months ago the doctor turned the X-ray on me to see what was
the matter and found that I had an abscess near my ovary and in a place
that if it had broken would have killed me right away.
The doctor's medicine did me no good, so Mama went to the store and got
me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I am now so well
that I can work, thanks to your medicine. It has saved me from an
operation.
