Saved me from an operation” “I took Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound at the change of life for troubles women often have.  I had not been well for a year and was not really able to do my work.  A friend who had taken the Vegetable Compound herself recommended it to me and I think its use saved me from an operation.  I highly recommend to all women with troubles like mine.”  Mrs. Daniel J. Tracey, Knightington, Ontario.

“A friend recommended it
“A friend in Rose Valley recommended Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound to me, and it has been a great help to me.  I recommend it, and
you can use this letter as a testimonial if you wish.” 
Mrs. Peter Nordin,
Wadena, Saskatchewan.

Omelet
[Illustration]

Ingredients 1 egg 1 tablespoon hot water 1 salt spoon salt Few grains of pepper

Method—­Separate the white from the yoke of the egg and beat it until stiff.  Beat the yolk until thick and add the hot water and salt.  Fold the beaten white of the egg in and put into a buttered pan.  Cook slowly until puffed and brown.

SCRAMBLED EGGS

Ingredients 1 egg 1 tablespoon milk or water 1/2 salt spoon salt Few grains of pepper

Method—­Beat the eggs slightly and add liquid and seasonings.  Pour into a warm buttered pan and cook slowly over water.  As the egg coagulates on the bottom and sides of the pan lift it with a spoon.  Continue until thickened and creamy but not dry.  Serve immediately.

Only A few bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound are needed to give surprising results, as so many women tell us.

Had no ambition” “I suffered greatly from weakness, seemed to be tired all the time, and had no ambition to do anything or go any place.  My nerves were in bad shape, I could not sleep at night and then came a breakdown.  I read of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound in the newspapers and several of my friends advised me to use it.  It surely put new life into me and now I am quite able to do all my own work.”  Mrs. Chas. WAKELIN, 272 Christie St., Toronto, Ontario.

Sweet milk griddle cakes
[Illustration]

Ingredients 3 cups flour 2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 4 tablespoons baking powder 1 egg 2 cups milk 2 tablespoons melted fat

Method—­Mix and sift dry ingredients.  Add beaten egg, milk and fat to make a thin batter.  Drop on a hot oiled griddle and brown on both sides.

Savings Save all the waxed paper that crackers and bread come wrapped in.  It is very handy to roll out pie-crust or biscuits on, also doughnuts and cookies, and saves washing the pastry board.

If you have to work you must have good health in order to do your work well.  Besides this, you want to be able to play afterwards and both work and play require good health.  It is a great handicap to be lacking in energy when you are young and should be strong.  Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound will help that tired feeling which many girls have.
