Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and when I
needed something for my periods I took it and got good results. I
recommend it to women with any female troubles, and I know other
women who have been helped by it."
MRS. MAX RETZER,

Lumsden, Saskatchewan.
"I used to have very bad pains in my back and sides and often was not
fit for work. I tried many medicines before I took yours. I saw Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound advertised in the 'Toronto Globe,' and
now that it has helped me I recommend it to all my neighbors."

WHEN A MAN
comes home from work at night, he wants to find
his home clean and comfortable, his supper ready, his children happy
and his wife smiling a welcome to him. These are only natural feelings
and when things are the reverse and he has to help do the work, he
looks for the cause of the trouble and its remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound will help women keep strong and well.

"WITH MY HUSBAND'S HELP"
"I used Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound for pains across the small of my back. They
bothered me so badly that I could do my work only with my husband's
help. One day we saw the 'ad' in our paper telling what Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is doing for women so I began to take
it. It has helped me wonderfully. I am feeling fine, do all my
housework and washing for seven in the family. I had been irregular
too, and now I am all right. I am telling my friends what it has done for
me and am sure it will do good for others. I will stand up for Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound any time."

3 tablespoons butter
1 cup confectioner's sugar
2
tablespoons cold boiled coffee
2 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 teaspoon
vanilla
Method--Cream the butter and sugar, add the remaining ingredients and
enough more sugar to make it creamy.
Plain icing may be made by moistening confectioner's sugar with milk
or water (either hot or cold) and adding flavoring. Either this or white

frosting may be made by moistening the sugar with orange juice.
HOWEVER BUSY
a woman is she always finds time to read the
daily papers. And she may read the Bargains first and the Weather
Report last, but she always reads the testimonial letters advertising
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. She wants to know what
experience other women have had with this great medicine.
"WHEN MY DAUGHTER WAS THIRTEEN"
"When my
daughter was thirteen and until she was fifteen she suffered every
month so that she could hardly move around the house and when she
would have the pains in school she would have to be carried home. She
also had headache, dizzy and faint spells, and soreness in her back. I

saw your advertisement in the 'Hamilton Spectator' and got Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for her. She does not have the least bit
of trouble now, and we both recommend your medicine. She works in a
candy-shop now and seems well and strong. I give you permission to
publish this letter as a testimonial."

from sun to sun, but woman's work is never
done." Women continually overdo and drift along from bad to worse.
