FOODS FOR BEAUTY.

Yeu Would Improve Votir Looks.
lo you witsh to bo lM'nutiful7 Or, 11
you possess beauty already, are you
anxious to retain it?
The chances are, In either cusp, thai
the answer Is yen. Well, then, It all
depends to a preat extent upon what
you eat. Certain kinds of food encour
age pulchritude, while others have ar
opposite tendency. It In worth while
to know how to regulate your diet
with a view to acquiring beauty, 11
you nave It not, or to retaining It 11
you are its fortunate possessor.
At the pretteut time I'ncle Sam ii
cultivating. -on his experimental fans
near Washington, a beauty-making
plant. It Ih called the -fenuKreek,"
and the weds of It are eaten by tht
women of Algeria to make them beau
tiful. Their belief is that it makes
them plump and improves their com
plexIoiiM. Hut the government expert
as yet have not reached a nat is factory
conclusion as to whether this faith if
justified or not. It may be correct
hut Judgment on the point Is bus
pendeil.
However, lliere are foods which un
denlably are beauty-makers. It it
worth any woman's while to know
what tiiey are, and to try them tin
less, perchance, she Is so perfect phy
sically ns not to need them In hei
owii case, and for her own advantage
"'Hie best of all bcauty-maklng food?
are fresh fruits and vegetables," sail
I'rofe?sor H. W. Wiley, the famotif

relatively little nourishment a womur
could hardly live on- Ihem exclusivel
for any length of time but for rea
sons which as yet are Imperfectly un
derstood, they possess extraordinary
value as healthglvers. If you want
bright eyes and a clear complexion,
eat plenty of them."
The fart Is that most fresh vegela

"Uist winter 1 suffered very much
with lllieuin.ilism. I could neither
walk nor ride on horseback nor do any
farm work.
"1 took medicine from different doc

Then I tried 1 (odd's Kidney ('ills pro

had taken the lirst box I felt already

pain and could walk and chop wood;
and the contraction of my fingers be

"Now since I have taken six more
boxes of Dodd's Kidney I'ills I feel
well again and am able to do all the
work on the farm."

Is Invited to write to Mrs. Piokham, Lynn, Mass., in regard to ber trouMa, and
the most expert advice telling exactly bow to obtain a CURE will be seat abso
lutely free of cost.
The one thing that qualifies a person to give advioe on any subject
ia experience experience creates knowledge.
No other person baa so wide an experience with female ills nor such
a record of success as Mrs. Pinkham has had.
Over a hundred thousand cases come before her each year. Some
personally, others by rnaiL And this has been going on for twenty years,
day after day, and day after day.
Twenty years of constant success think of the knowledge thus
gained! Surely women are wise in necking advice from a woman with,
such an exjrerience, especially when it is free.
Mrs. Hayes, of Boston, wrote to Sirs. Pinkham when she was
in great trouble. Her Jotter shows tlie result. There are actually
thousands of such letters in Mrs. Prnkhatn's possession.
"Dear Mrh. ltMKir a m : I have been under doctors' treatment for female
troubles for some time, but without any relief. They now tell me I have a
fibroid tumor. I cannot Kit down without great pain, and the boreneeg extends
up my spine. I have bearing down pains both bock and front. My abdomen
ia swollen, I cannot wear my clothes with any comfort. Womb is dreadfully
swollen, and I have h;.d flowing- Bpells for three years. My appetite ia not
goo ). I cannot walk rtr be on my feet for any length of time.
"The symptoms of Fibroid Tumor, given in your little book, accurately
describe my case, so I write to you for advice." Mbs. E. F. Hates, 252
Dudley St (Boston), Poxbury, Mass.
" Dkar Mrs. PixrcnAM: I wrote to you describing my symptoms, and
asked your advice. You replied, and I followed all your directions carefully
for several months, and to-d:iv I am a well woman.
The use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, together
with your advice, carefully followed, entirely expelled tbe tumor, and strength
ened the whole system. I can walk miles now.
" Vour Vegetable Compound is worth five dollars a drop. I advise all
women who are afflicted with tumors, or any female trouble, to write you for
advice, and give it a faithful trial." Mas. K. F. Hatm, 862 Iudley St
(Boston), Roxbury, Mass.
Mrs. Hayes will gladly answer any and all letters that may b
addressed to her asking about lier Illness, and how Mr. Pinkham
helped her.
