THERE is hardly a man or wo-
man in this land who has not a
mother, wife, sister or daughter
who is now suffering as Mrs White
suffered. These silent sufferers are
martyrs to their modesty. Even
their nearest relatives know only half
of the story of wee they mignt tell.
What a great service you could rem
der your loved ones by securing them
a bottle of Wine of Cardui, the med
icine which made such a happy
change in Mrs. Whites life. Can
you put the cost of a life of suffering
with hundreds of dollars in doctors
bills, against the small price of the
few bottles of Wine of Cardui which
cured Mrs. White so quickly?
The fact that Mrs. White suf-
fered for seven long years shows that
when proper treatment is not secured
the trouble grows worse. And this
letter shows that Wine of Cardui is a
positive and permanent cure. Mrs.
Whites case was chronic. Nothing
helped her until she began taking
this wonderful Cardui treatment.
