HAPPY is the girl who is healthy. She joins in the games of her
playmates. The thrills of basketball and tennis, of canoeing,
swimming, dancing, all arc hers to enjoy. If She complains of head
aches, pains in the back or lower limbs, is nervous or irritable, the
mother should give her thoughtful attention and care.
5 Lydia E. Pinkh.... j Vegetable Compound is especially adapted for
•such conditions. It can be taken in safety
by anv girl.
