Miss , Ida M. Snyder,
Treasurer of the Brooklyn
 East End Art Club.

H women would pay more attention ts their health we would have more happy wives, mothers and daughters, and if they would use more intelligence in the matter oi medicines, observing results, they would find that the doctors prescriptions do not perform the many cures they are given credit for.
 My life was burden to me through per- sistent indigestion; anaemia resulted and my friends thought l was an invalid for lite. But l would not give up and when found that prescriptions would not help me, tried something else.
 "In consulting with my druggist he ad. viscd McElrce's Wine of Cardui and Tined. lords Black-Draught, and so took it and have every reason to thank him for a new life opened up to me with restored health, and it only took three months to cure me-"
 You may secure the same relief as Miss Snyder, if you take Wine of Cardui as she took it. Thedford's $ Black -Draught is the companion medicine of Wine of Cardui and it is liver and bowel regulator which assists greatly in effecting cure. Go to your druggist and buy dollar bottle of Wine of Cardui and twenty-five cent package of Thedford's Black -Draught and take them in the privacy of your hcme. If you take these medicines according to di- rections, the relief and cure is simple. Some cases are cured quickly and others take longer because the disease has run longer Remember how Miss Snyder took Wine of Cardui and has health. The same medicines are offered you today.

TT T is one of the saddest things in life
 N to see beautiful young girl lan- - gushing on bed of sickness, when ,he should be strong and healthy, filling he home with the sunshine of her happy lace. Somehow or other as the mother is he center of the home, the daughter seems o be its greatest joy or it's greatest care. home with an invalid daughter is like a hospital The sufferer with her pale olanched face calls for every ones care and sympathy. How different is the home where healthy girl sheds her happy in- iuence and ministers to the comfort of every one in a thousand pleasant ways.
 It is remarkable that so many women will forfeit health and then suffer the con- sequence of pain and sickness when it is unnecessary. Women who enjoy this greatest of Natures blessings are liable to forget that health can be easily lost by neg .ect. They cannot realize that the loss of ,leep, little cold or irregularity of habits ;an result disastrously until they once suf- ter painful menses. Menstrual troubles are generally the beginning of women's trou- bles. The vitality is at low ebb, the blood weakened, the digestion disordered
