A great many women suffer with a form of indigestion or dyspepsia which
does not seem to yield to ordinary medical treatment. While the symptoms
seem to be similar to those of ordinary indigestion, yet the medicines
universally prescribed do not seem to restore the patient's normal
condition. =Mrs. Pinkham= claims that there is a kind of dyspepsia that is
caused by derangement of the female organism, and which while it causes
disturbance similar to ordinary indigestion cannot be relieved without a
medicine which not only acts as a stomach tonic, but has peculiar
utero-tonic effects as well; in other words, a derangement of the female
organs may have such a disturbing effect upon a woman's whole system as
to cause serious indigestion and dyspepsia, and it cannot be relieved
without curing the original cause of the trouble, which seems to find
its source in the pelvic organs. As proof of this theory, we call
attention to the letter from Mrs. Maggie Wright, who was completely
cured by the use of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
"MY DEAR MRS. PINKHAM--For two years I suffered more or less with
dyspepsia, which so degenerated my entire system that I was unfit to
properly attend to my daily duties. I felt weak and nervous, and nothing
I ate tasted good or felt comfortable in my stomach. I tried several
dyspeptic cures, but nothing seemed to help me permanently. I decided to
give =Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound= a trial, and was happily
surprised to find that it acted like a fine tonic, and in a few days I
began to enjoy and properly digest my food. My recovery was rapid, and
in five weeks I was a different woman. Seven bottles completely cured
me, and a dozen or more of my friends have used it since."--MRS. MAGGIE
WRIGHT, 12 Van Voorhis St., Brooklyn, New York.
=Many women were utterly discouraged, and life lacked all joy to them
when they wrote Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. They received advice which
made them strong women again.=

THE BLUES
=Don't Wait Until Your Sufferings Have Driven You To Despair, With Your
Nerves All Shattered and Your Courage Gone.=
When a cheerful, brave, light-hearted woman is suddenly plunged into
that perfection of misery, the BLUES, it is a sad picture. It is usually
this way:
