WHY WOMEN WRITE LETTERS 'ro Lydia E. Pinkham Medi- cine Co. Women who are well often ask \Are the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. are continually publishing, genuine?\ \Are they truthful?\ \Why do women write such letters?\ In answer we say that never have we published a fictitious letter or name. Never, knowingly, have we published an untruthful letter, or one without the full and written consent of the woman who wrote it. The reason that thousands of women from all parts of the country write such grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink - ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink - ham's Vegetable Compound has brought health and happiness into their lives, once burdened with pain and suffering. It has relieved women from some of the worst forms of female ills, from dis- placements, inflammation, ulceration, irregularities, nervousness, weakness, stomach troubles and from the blues. It is impossible for any woman who is well and who has never suffered to realize how these poor, suffering wo- men feel when re- stored to health; their keen desire to help other women who are suffering as they did.
