I will lend that little book you sent me to any one 1 can help. You can with the great- est of pleasure use my name in regard to the Vegetable Compound if it will help others take it." Mrs. HAHVEY MlLLl- G.V.N, Sydenham, Ont. It is remarkable how many cases hav been reported similar to this one. Many women are poorly at such times and get into a weakened, run-down condition, when it is essential to the mother, as well as the child, that her strength be kept up. Lydia E. PinUham's Vegetable Com- pound is an excellent tonic for the mother at this time. It is prepared from medicinal roots and herbs, and does not contain any harmful drujjs. 1 1 may be taken in safety by the nursing mother.
