TO HELP X YOUNG GIRLS A Mother Wants Her Letter Published. Eaton, Ill.—“I wish you would publish this letter for the benefit of young girls. My daughter suffered greatly from female trouble with cramps, and headache, and backache most of the time. She never felt like working and it seemed as though she was sick all the time. I decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound anil it has ' helped her in every way, in fact it has really cured her, for she no longer has periodic pains, and no more headaches or backache, and I want all young who suffer as she did to know about it. —Mrs. Alma Mills, Eaton, 111. Another Girl’s Experience. New Castle, Ind.-“ From the time I was eleven years old until I was seventeen I suffered each month so I had to be in bed. I had headache, backache and such pains I would cramp double every month. I did not know what it ywas to be easy a minute. My health was all run down and the doctors did not do me anv good. A neighbor told my mother about Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and I took it, and now I feel like a new person. I don’t suffer any more and I am regular every month." —Mrs. Hazel Hamilton, 822 South 15th St., Newcastle, Ind. Girls who are troubled as these young women were, should immediately seek restoration to health by taking Lydia £. Pinkham's Vegetable Comnound. o —— MASONIC CALENDAR FOR WEcK ENDING JUNE 16TH Tuesday, June 12, 7:30 p. ni. Regular meeting Blue Lodge. Thursday, June 14, 7:30 p. m. Fellow Craft Degree.
