CORED BY A NATIVE HERB
On board a vessel bound for India
recently a maf! was bitten by a pois
onous' reptile; both the ship doctor
and a famous surgeon failed to con
trol the poison fast spreading
through bis system.
In a day the ves"! reached port.
An Indian medicine man was sent
for, who produced a native herb
which quickly allayed the poison and
the mail's life was saved.
Roots and herbs are nature's as
sistants in combating disease. That
well-known medicine for ailments
peculiar to women, Lydia E. rink
ham's Vegetable Compound, is pre
pared from roots and herbs, possess
ing medicinal properties of great
value in the treatment of such ailments.
This is proved by the letters of
recommendation we are continually
publishing in this paper for it.
