Miss Rose Hennessy , well known as
a poetess and elocutionist , of Lexington ,
Ky. , tells how she was cured of uterine
inflammation and ovaritis by the use of
Lydia E. Pinfcham's Vegetable Compound *
" DEAR MRS. PTNKITAM : I have been so blessedly helped through the use
parties and receptions thinly clad , and would be suddenly
chilled , but I did not think of the results. I caught a bad cold eighteen
months ago while menstruating , and this caused inflammation of the womb
and congested ovaries. I suffered excruciating pains and kept gettingworse. .
My attention was called to your Vegetable Compound and the wonderful
t cures it had performed , and I made up my mind to try it for two months and
i see what it would do for me. Within one month I felt much better , and
at the close of the second I was entirely well.
"I have advised a number of my lady friends to use it , and all express
themselves as well satisfied with the results as I was. " Miss ROSE NOBJL
HEXXESSV , 410 S. Broadway , Lexington. Ky.
The experience and testimony of some of tlie most noted
women of .America go to prove beyond a question that Lydia E.
Piiikham's VogetahJe Compound will correct all such trouble and
1 at once , by removing the cause , and restoring the organs to a
normal and healthy condition.
"DEAR MRS. PrxirnA r : About two years ago I consulted a physician -
<
sician about my health , -which , had become so wretched that I was no
I longer able to be about. I had severe backache , bearing-down pains ,
; pains across the abdomen , was very nervous and irritable , and this
, trouble grew worse each month. The physician prescribed for me , but
I soon discovered that he was unable to help me , and I then decided to
try Lydia E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound , and soon found that
. it was doing me good. My appetite was returning , the pains disappear
ing , and the general benefits were well marked.
" You cannot realize how pleased I was , and after taking the medi
cine for only three months , I found ths ; * * I was completely cured of my
trouble , and have been well and hearty ever since , and no more fear the
, monthly period , as it now passes without pain to me. Yours very truly ,
Miss PEARL ACKERS , 327 North Summer St. , Nashville , Tenn. "
When a medicine has been successful in restoring to health
more than a million women , you cannot well say without trying it
' I do net believe it will help me. " If you are ill , do not hesitate
to get a bottle of Lydia PinMiam's Vegetable Compound and
write Mrs. Pinkha.m . , t .Lynn , Mass. , for special advice. Her ad
vice is free and helpful. Write to-day. Delay may be fatal.
FORFEIT if we cannot forthvith produce the original letters and signatures cJ
above testimonial * , wkicli will prove their absolute genuineness.

FOR THIRTY YEARS
Congressman Meekison Suffered with Catarrh
Read His Endorsement of Pe-ru-na.
CONGRESSMAN MEEK1SON , Of OHIO.
Hon. David Meekisou is well known , not cnly in his own State but throughout
America. He began his political career by serving four consecutive terms as
Mayor of the town in which he lives , during which time he became widely known
as Ihe founder or ( he Meekison Bank of Napoleon , Ohio. He was pleated to the
Fifty-fifth Congress by a very large majority , and is the acknowledged leader of
his party in his peotion of the State.
Only one flaw marred the otherwise complete success of this rising statesman.
Catarrh with its insidious approach : m l tenacious grasp , was his only iincon-
qupred foe. For thirty years he wa od unsuccessful warfare against this personal
enemy. At last Peruna came to the rescue , and he dictated the following letter to
Dr. Hartman as the result :
" / hzve used several bottles of Psruna snJ / feel grsetly benefited
thereby from my cniurrh of the head. I feel enccurged to believe that if
I use it a short time longer I will be faUy able to eradicate the disease of
thirty years' standing. " David Meek/son , ex-Member of Congress. i
season of catching cold is upon
THE The cough and the snee/.e and
nasal twang are to be heard on every
hand. The origin of chronic catarrh ,
the most common and dreadful of dis
eases , is a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins. A person catches cold ,
which hangs on longer than usual. The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Then follow sensitiveness of the
air passages which incline one to catch
cold very easily. At last the person has
a cold all the while seemingly , more or
less discharge from the nose , hawking ,
spitting , freqnent clearing of the throat ,
nostrils stopped up , full feeling in the
head and sore , inflamed throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
rery beginning. A "bottle of Peruna prop
erly nsed never fails to cure n common
cold , thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured
of chronic catarrh by a single bottle of
Perum. yet , as a rnle , when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed , more than
one bottle is necessary to complete a
cure Peruna has cured cases innumer
able of catarrh of twenty years' stand
ing. It is the best , if not the only inter
nal remedy for chronic catarrh in ex
istence.
But prevention ia far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take I'eruna at once at the slight
est symptom of cold or sore throat at
this season of the year and thus prerent
what is almost certain to end in chronic
catarrh.
