of the uterus.

=Causes.=--The causes of this are many, as improper dress, which
constricts the waist, and presses down upon the delicate organs in the
pelvis; improper attention to the health at each menstruation;
over-work; anxiety; miscarriages; unskillful treatment at childbirth,
etc.

=Lives of Suffering and Sorrow.=--What miserable lives women have to
endure who go about from day to day with a chronic inflammation of the
uterus. Each hour there is that dragging, pulling, bearing-down pain;
that heavy weight; that terrible depression; and that feeling of
abandoned hope. Yet hundreds of thousands, I might say millions of women
have had all this suffering and sadness turned to joy and comfort,
simply by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

among women.

It is characterized by a white discharge from the vagina which often
becomes very irritating, and is especially bad just before or after
menstruation. It is a symptom that should not be allowed to go

about an incurable condition. Yet when properly treated, it may be
quickly remedied, and all danger removed.

=Treatment.=--First of all, it is necessary to remove the inflammation
that exists in the uterus itself. This is done by the persistent use of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. As I have described elsewhere,
this will remove all congestion, heal the inflammation, and bring abo
