Woman's Kidney Troubles.

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is Especially Successful in Curing this Fatal Woman's Disease.

Of all the diseases known with which the female organism is afflicted, kidney disease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives.

Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pinkham, early in her career, gave exhaustive study to the subject, and in producing her great remedy for woman's ills—Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound—was careful to see that it contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable Compound acts in harmony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many so-called remedies for kidney troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the only one especially prepared for women.

The following letters will show how marvellously successful it is.

Oct. 17, 1901.

I have noticed your advertisement in the papers of your wonderful medicine, and I wish to consult you in regard to my sickness.

I have been a sufferer of female weakness for the past six months; have doctored a great deal, but it has done me no good. I have kidney and bladder trouble, backache, constipation, headache, terrible pains in my left side, have leucorrhoea, painful menstruation, which compels me to take my bed for two and three days; also have falling of the womb. Blood is very thin. I hope to hear from you soon.

I am almost ashamed to acknowledge the receipt of your letter received last Fall. After I had doctored for a year without receiving any relief, I then wrote you for advice in regard to my sickness and began the use of your medicine.

I am happy to say that I never felt better in my life than I do now. I can eat hearty, sleep well, and feel like a new woman.

Many thanks for your kind and highly appreciated letter. I wish every suffering woman would try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

It affords me great pleasure to give you my testimony in regard to the value of Lydia E. Pinkham's valuable remedies. I suffered for some time with internal trouble, being at times unable to walk across the floor. I had weakness of the bladder and was very nervous.

After taking one bottle Vegetable Compound I felt better. I continued its use, and after taking five bottles could walk two miles without difficulty. My health is now good and I am sixty years old.

I think your Vegetable Compound the best medicine I have ever taken.

MRS. HENRY GITTELMAN, 1004 N. 6th St., Reading, Pa.

June 26, 1901.

I will write and let you know how much good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done me.

I cannot express the terrible suffering I have had to endure. I was taken last May with nervous prostration; also had female trouble, liver, stomach, kidney and bladder trouble. I was in a terrible condition. The doctor attended me for a year, but I kept getting worse. I got so I was not able to do any work. Was confined to my bed most of the time, and thought I would never be able to do anything. People thought I would not live.

I decided to try your medicine. I have taken twelve bottles Vegetable Compound and cannot praise it too highly, for I know it will do all and even more than it is recommended to do. I tell every suffering woman about your medicine and urge them to try it.

A Danger Period Through Which Every Woman Must Pass.

Owing to modern methods of living, not one woman in a thousand approaches this perfectly natural change without experiencing a train of very annoying and sometimes painful symptoms. At this period a woman indicates a tendency towards obesity or tumorous growths.

Those dreadful hot flashes, sending the blood surging to the heart until it seems ready to burst, and the faint feeling that follows, sometimes with chills, as if the heart were going to stop forever, are only a few of the symptoms of a dangerous nervous trouble. The nerves are crying out for assistance. The cry should be heeded in time. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was prepared to meet the needs of woman's system at this trying period of her life, and all women who use it pass through this trying period with comfort and safety.

August 6, 1902.

My trouble was Change of Life and cramping. No human tongue can describe what I suffered with the cramp. I dreaded from one time to another so much that I almost wanted to die.

Our family physician did everything he could for me, but I got no relief. He said if I lived to get through with the other trouble it would wear away after a time, but I had it six years, and could not walk or exercise in any way without bringing on an attack of the cramp, and I would suffer untold misery until I would be perfectly exhausted and helpless.

I read in one of your little books about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound being good for female trouble and Change of Life, and thought there was no harm in trying it. So I did, and it helped me, and I was able to take walks and work some.

I am very thankful for the relief your medicine has been to me.

MRS. V. M. BLAKE, Deep Water, W. Va.

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:

I began to dread the approach of Change of Life some years ago, as so many of my friends had been miserable for five or six years during that period and as I was not very strong and being subject to headaches and weakness, I felt that I did not have the strength to carry me through this dangerous period and had it not been for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, I feel that I would not have been alive to-day.

I began to take it about three years ago when I felt the change coming on and continued taking it for three months, then I did not take any for a couple of months, and began to feel so badly that I started to use it again, and then continued to take it for about six months out of every year for three years and am pleased to state that it has kept me free from sickness.

Very truly yours, MRS. GEORGE SHEPHERD, Berlin, Wis. Vice-President Mothers' Club.

I thought I would write and state my condition to you and ask if you think you can do me any good. I am fifty-five years old, never had any children. I came here from Brooklyn for my husband's health, he having consumption. I have always had good health, never any trouble with my menses, always regular until two or three months before my husband died, which was March 25, 1901. As soon as he died, I commenced and flowed constantly ever since. I know it must be the Change of Life. I did not worry about it for four or five months, then I had a doctor but he did me no good. I had another with the same result. Last May I had to go to New York and traveling I think was too much for me as I have been worse. I saw a doctor there and he wanted me to go to the hospital and have my womb curetted, but I did not feel like having that done. I never have any pain only once in a while a little backache. Please let me know if you think you can do me any good.

MRS. J. J. REARDON.

January 18, 1903.

I feel that I must write and thank you for the good you have done me. I wrote to you my case last summer. I flowed constantly for sixteen months so badly that I dared not go any where and the doctors all said an operation. Nothing did me any good. As a last resort I appealed to you. I had no faith in your medicine, but thought I would try it and if it did me no good I would go to the hospital. I took two boxes of the Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound Pills and started on the third and now I am all right. I was run down, nervous, could not sleep, no appetite, but Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound has cured me entirely. I am very grateful to you and wish that everyone afflicted as I was would try it.

MRS. J. J. REARDON, Milford, Pa.

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did wonders for me during the Change of Life.

I was troubled with backache and headache, hot flashes and cold chills, pains in my hips, and at times would have such pains under my shoulder blades that I could hardly move for a while. I hope that other suffering women will take your medicine.

Many thanks for what you have done for me.

MRS. SARAH DERFER, Dundee, Ohio.
