Praise Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound
Women from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from all sections
of this great country, no city so large, no village so small
but that some woman has written words of thanks for
health restored by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com-
pound. No woman who is suffering from the ills peculiar
to her sex should rest until she has given this famous remedy
a trial. Is it not reasonable to believe that what it did for
these women it will do for any sick woman ?
Wonderful Case of Mrs. Crusen,
of Bushnell, 111.
Busiinkll, III.—“I think all the trouble I have had since my
marriage was caused by exposure when a young girl. My work has
been housework of all kinds, and I have done milking in the cold and
snow when I was too young to realize that it would hurt me. I have
suffered very much with bearing down pains in my back and such
miserable pains across me, and was very nervous and generally run
down in health, but suioe I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound my back never hurts me, my nerves are stronger, and I
am gaining in health every day. I tlutnk you for the great help I
have received from your medicine, and if my letter will benefit suf-
fering women I will be glad for you to print it.”—Mrs. James Crusen,
Bushnell, Illinois.
A Grateful Atlantic Coast Woman.
IIodopon, Me.—“I feel it a duty I owe to all suffering women to
tell what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound did for me. One
year ago I found myself a terrible sufferer. I hud pains in both sides
and sueh a soreness I could scarcely straighten up at times. My
back ached. I had no appetite and was so nervous I could not sleep,
then I would be so tired mornings that I could scarcely get around.
It seemed almost impossible to move or do a bit or work and I
thought I never would l>e any better until I submitted to an opera-
appetite and was fat and could do almost all my own work for a :
ily of four. I shall always feel that I owe my good health to your
medicine.”—Mrs. Hayward Bowers, Ilodgdon, Maine.
For 90 years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable (
Compound has been the standard remedy for fe-
male Ills. No one sick with woman’s ailments
does justice to herself if she does not try this fa-
mous medicine made from roots and herbs. It
lias restored so many siifferlngwouien to health.

sen, the man from “ The Land of
the Midnight Sun ” will be the

py faculty of holding his audience

Efforts are being exercised by a
committee of firemen, to get enough
money together for the purchase
of another auto fire truck, so that
each company will have a motor
truck. Canvassing the city Mon-
day and Tuesday the committee
were given great encouragement.
Thesubcribed to Jist was filed with
the city council last evening, and
that honorable body will very like-
ly assist the fireboys with a good
donation. The amount short of
the aggreed price of purchase will
be taken from the treasury of the
fire department.

was drowned in the Lavaca river in
December, was found Sunday.
