Catarrh spreads fromthe nose to the throat where it sometimes prepares the suf- ferer ufferer for diphtheria; it spreads to the stomach and bowels where it generates the worst kind of indiges- tion ; consumption, even, has been known.to be help- ed along by catarrh. If your- breath is bad, you had better sweeten it up by- getting catarrh out of your system. • You should take something that will kill the disease germs, tone . up your general health and particularly revitalize and invigorate the m u c o u s membranes which catarrh especially attacks.

Pi i pantos Voguisbl. Compound The wonderful power of Lydia E. Pinkham`a Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not be- cause it is a stimulant, not because it Ise palliative, but simply because it is the most wonderful tonic and recon- structor ever discovered to aet directly upon the generative organs, positively curing disease and restoring health and vigor, Marvelous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians. who have recognized the virtue of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com- pound, and are fair enough to give credit where it is due. If physicians dared to be frank and open, hundreds of themwould ackno wl- edge that they constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com- pound in severe cases of female ills, as they know by experience it can be re- lied upon to effect a cure. The follow- ing letter proves it. Dr. S. C. Brigham, of 4 Brigham Park, Fitchburg, Mass., writes "It gives me great pleasure to say that I have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound very efficacious, and often pre- scribe it in my practice for foinale difficulties, "My oldest daughter found it very benefi- dal for uterine trouble some time ago, and my -- youngest daughter is now taking it for a fe- male weakness, and is surely gaining in health and strength. "I freely advocate it as a most reliable spe- cific in all diseases to which women are sub- ject, and give it honest endorsement." Women who are troubled with pain- ful or irregular menstruation, bloating (or flatulence), leueorrhoea, falling, in- flammation or ulceration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that bearing -down feeling, dizziness, faintness, indiges tion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take iemi ddiate action to ward off the ser- consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta- ble Compound, and then write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., for further free advice. No living person has had the benefit of a wider experience in treating female ills. She has guided thonasnds to health. Every suffering woman should oak for and follow her advice if she wants to be strong and well. Cook's Cotton Root Compound.
