The doctor said I
never would have a

took it regularly for
sometime, and I am
in better health than ever, and have a
healthy baby girl. 1 praise your Vege-
table Compound for my baby and my
better health. I want all suffering
women to know that it is the sure road
to heal th and happiness. ”—Mrs. George
