Too III am I to Work Scores of Women in homes, stores, offices and factories are not fit to be at work. They toil on day after day and year after year suffering with distressing weaknesses and derangements, hoping against hope that they will soon feel better, but how can they hope to do good work or escape permanent invalidism? Such women are in danger of derangement of women's functions. They owe it to themselves to try that good old fashioned root and herb remedy Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which for more than forty years has been restoring American Women to health and strength. Here is a Notable Examples Joplin, Missouri. "I took Lydia EL Pinkham's Vcgdtablc Compound to cce if it really would do as it was ad-' vertised arid it sure did, and more. I was weak and could not do much work, had bearing down pains and had to go to bed. I learned about the Vegetable Compound from my mother and my husband told ms to get it. After taking one bottle I was able to -he on my feet most of the time and do my work again. I have a baby eleven months old and 'I have done all my own work, even the washing and ironing since she was three weeks old. I certainly recommend your great medi cine to everyone who complains of female trouble and I am more than willing for you to use my testimonial." Mrs. Timothy graney. 426 Connor Ave, Joplin, Mo. And Another Chicago, Illinois." I suffered for four ? rears with pains in my sides, hips and egs and a terrible backache. I could not do any work at all. I was treated by many physicians but they did not help me. I read in one of your books where other women have been helped by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, so I tried it and it helped me very much so that now I can do . everything in the house. I have told my friends about Vegetable Compound and you have my permission to use this letter." Mra. I. OVENSTEIN. 902 S. Marshfield Avenue, Chicago, ill.
