"A GENERAL RUN-DOWN CONDITION"
"I was in a general run-down condition, with a weak back and tired
feeling, so that I did not feel like working. My mother was taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and recommended it to me, so I have
taken it, and my back is better and I am now able to do my work. I
recommend the Vegetable Compound to my neighbors and you may publish
this letter."
