I have suffered for four years with ir- regular and painful menstruation, also dizziness, pains in the back and lower limbs, and fitful sleep. I dreaded the time to come which would only mean suffering to me. " Better health is all I wanted, and cure if possible. Lydia E. Pink - ham's Vegetable Compound brought me health .and happiness in a few short months. I feel like another person now. My aches and pains have left me. Life seems new and sweet to me,and everything seems pleasant and easy. "Six bottles brought me health, and was worth more than months under the doctor's care, which really did not benefit me at all. I am satisfied there is no medicine so good for sick women as your Vegetable Compound, and I advocate it to my lady friends in need of medical help." - Mils. B. A.
