ATTRACTIVE WOMEN.

All women sensibly desire TO be at
tractive. Beauty is the.stamp.of health
because it is the outward manifesto
tion. bright and happy When every
drop of blood In the veins is pure a
beauteous flush Is on the cheek. But
when the blood Is impure, morosness,
bad temper and sallow complexion
tells the tale Of sickness, all too plain
ly. And women to-day know there
is no beauty without health. Wine Of
Cardui crowns women with beauty
and attractiveness by making strong
and healthy those organs which make
her women. Try wine Of cardui,
and in month your friends will hard
