JOHN SHIKSNIUS, Box 83, Stellarton, Nova Scotia By Accurate Record LYDIA E. PINKHAM'S VJiii*i!5TABLE COMPOUND benefits 98 out of 100 women who report after taking it. 31 LYDIA E. PINKHAM'S BLOOD MEDICINE is a reliable general tonic, equally good for men and women. 1 1 takes the place of Grandma's sulphur and molasses in the Spring and is much more pleasant to the taste. Keep it in the medicine chest and give it to the whole family — parents and children — at any time through the year when they need such a medicine. HUMORS AND ERUPTIONS are among the most common indica- tions and results of a run-down condi- tion. Such eruptions are unpleasant, often embarrassing and give the face an unhealthy appearance. They are not usually especially serious or dan- gerous. More serious results may come, however, at any time from the accumulated impurities which they indicate. GOOD HOME TREATMENT is necc sary. Eat plain, nutritious and easily digested food. Get plenty of sleep and fresh air. Take Lydia E. Pinkham's Blood Medicine one-half hour before meals. If constipation is present — as it often is — take Lydia E. Pinkham's Liver Pills. The Blood Medicine works in harmony with both the Vegetable Compound and the Liver Pills. 82 ivrMA tr oiMi.r'urAX/f A/iirrMr'iKTn' nr\AAV>KKiy/ Lynn, Massachusetts, U. S.
