WHY WOMEN
SUFFER
gome do it from ignorance: some
from carelessness: some in a spirit
of martyrdom and some from a
mistaken sense of duty impelling
them to go on sacrificing them-
selves for others, until they “drop
in their tracks”.
Thousands of women have learned
better; have found out that it’s
•wrong to suffer from the peculiar
ills of womanhood; because they
need not do it.
STELLA VITAE, the old-time “Wo-
man’s, Relief"1 “Mother’s Cordial”
has been helping the women of
the South to health and happiness
for half a century.
It is the prescription of a famous
old Southern doctor and has proved
successful with thousands of wo-
men and young girls.
STELLA VITAE is compounded in
the' laboratories of the Thacher
Medicine Co., Chattanooga, Tenn.,
and sold by all druggists at a mod-
erate price. Money refunded if
the first bottle fails to help.
PALPITATION OF THE HEART I
The experience of a woman
•who has successfully passed the
“changes” is valuable. This lady
tells of the "bridge that carried
her over.”
"I was in a most wretched condition, at
that moat crltioal time in a woman'l life
*the change.’ I had palpitation of the heart
and would swell and bleat in a very distress-
ing way.
“I took fire bottlaa of STELLA VTTAE,
and 1 am happy to say that it cured me.
When I began I weighed only 108 pounds.
S now weigh 135 pounds."—-Mrs. E. It
