I am a nurse and it I and a woman is in poor health I always tell her to take it. Although you know that doctors and nurses do not use patent medi- 'cines I must say` that I think there is nothing better than your Vegetable Compound. When I first took it many years ago,_ I was so tired when I got. up in the morning that I could _not eat, and when I went to bed I was too tired to sleep. My mother- in-law told me that Lydia` E. Pink- ham s Vegetable Compound was just what I wanted so I tried it and only took two bottles when I -felt better. .Since then I have found that there is nothing that makes me feel so well, for it seems to build my system right up.` I don't know any other medicine that has done so much for women.-M1:s.
