Death that Might Have Been
Prevented-A Warning to Pa
rents.
Argyle Leach was the only child
and idolzed daughter Of parents
who were able to indulge her every
wish and desire. She was pro-
vidcd with the best teachers in all
departments of education. Until
she was sixteen years of age she
was the picture of perfect health
and loneliness At critical time
she was exposed to rain storm
and caught cold, which caused de-
rangemcnts peculiar to her sex.
She was treated by the best ply
sicians.
She suffered great pain in her back,
hips, chest and in the back Of her
head and neck. Her nervous sys-
tenn became derangcd. She would
have spells when she would laugh
and cry alternately, and could not
control herself. Her cycsight was
affected, and when she would at
tempt to read innumerablc stars
would appear and blind her.
On February 10th, 1887, the fol-
lowing letter was received from the
brokcn-hcarted father
DEAR BROTHER McEIREE: The med
cine came too late! Ny daughter died
on the 18th of last month. ] shall
never forgive myself E'r neglcctng to
net on your advice. | now firmly be-
lieve that if we had given her the
/. Wine of Cardui when you wrote Us
about it, that she would have been
alive to-day. She was the only joy
and hope of our declining years, and
to think that her life was sacrificed by
prejudice makes me miserable. a
young lady, Miss -, living near us,
who was afflicted almost precisely like
my daughter, was treated with the
Wine Of Cardui, and is now entirely
well. May God forgive me! a.

During the first part of hi.
i daughters sickness Mr.. Leach S
attention was directed to the now
remedy for such diseases (MclEl-
reefs Wine of CarduD and he was
advised to try it, but her physician
protested against it. Finally, when
all hope was gone, he consented,
bu. it was then too late. No hui
man power could save her life.
The names in the above story are
fctictious, but the facts are exact
occurrences. One hundred cases
similar to this could be given,
where cures were accomplished by
use of MclGlrecs Wine of Cardui,
and all might have terminated in
death, as SO many hundreds dc
every year.
Mr.. S. A. Smith, Postmaster at
Burnt Mills, Tishomingo county,

BURNT MILLS, Miss, Oct. q, 49,
10 the Chattanooga Medicine Co.:
Your medicines are all up to the

Of Cardui cannot be too highly recon-
mended.
One lady in this neighborhood was
confined to her room for sic gears, and
by the use of six bottles of Wine of
Cardui is now permanently cured.
Another one with Heart Dropsy, or
thought to be By eminent physicians
and pronounced incrdblG, after using
five bottles is permanently cured.
,, Yours, ETC.,
J We wrote to Mr.. Smith, asking
him il he had any objection to the
| publication of his letter. This was
his reply:
IL have no objection to the letter be-
: ing printed, and would be glad if every
lady in the world could see it,"
Yours truly, S. A. SMITH.
