BLOOD • DISORDERS are simply kidney disorders. The kidneys niter the blood of all that shouldn’t be there. The blood - passes through the kidneys every three minutes. If the kidneys do their work no impurity or cause of disorder can remain in the circulation longer than that time. Therefore, if your blood is out of order your kidneys have failed in their work. They are in need of stimulation, strengthening or doctoring.

WOMANSKIDNEYTROUBLES Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is Especially Successful in Curing this Fatal Woman’s Disease* |;| V / E KI Of all the diseases known with which the female organism is afflicted, kidney* disease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives. Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pinkham, early in her career, gave exhaustive study to the subject, and in producing her great remedy for woman’s ills Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound was careful to see that It contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable'Compound acts in harmony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many so called remedies for kidney troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is the only one especially prepared for women. The following letters will show how marvellously successful it is :
