Those dreadful hot flashes, sending the blood surging to the heart until it seems ready to burst, and the faint feeling that follows, sometimes with chills, as if the heart were going to stop forever, are only a few of the symptoms of a dangerous nervous trouble. The nerves are crying out for assistance. The cry should be heeded in time. =Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound= was prepared to meet the needs of woman's system at this trying period of her life, and all women who use it pass through this trying period with comfort and safety. August 6, 1902. My trouble was Change of Life and cramping. No human tongue can describe what I suffered with the cramp. I dreaded from one time to another so much that I almost wanted to die. Our family physician did everything he could for me, but I got no relief. He said if I lived to get through with the other trouble it would wear away after a time, but I had it six years, and could not walk or exercise in any way without bringing on an attack of the cramp, and I would suffer untold misery until I would be perfectly exhausted and helpless. I read in one of your little books about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound being good for female trouble and Change of Life, and thought there was no harm in trying it. So I did, and it helped me, and I was able to take walks and work some. I am very thankful for the relief your medicine has been to me. MRS. V. M. BLAKE, Deep Water, W. Va. Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I began to dread the approach of Change of Life some years ago, as so many of my friends had been miserable for five or six years during that period and as I was not very strong and being subject to headaches and weakness, I felt that I did not have the strength to carry me through this dangerous period and had it not been for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, I feel that I would not have been alive to-day. I began to take it about three years ago when I felt the change coming on and continued taking it for three months, then I did not take any for a couple of months, and began to feel so badly that I started to use it again, and then continued to take it for about six months out of every year for three years and am pleased to state that it has kept me free from sickness. Very truly yours, MRS. GEORGE SHEPHERD, Berlin, Wis. Vice-President Mothers' Club. June 28, 1902.
