WOULD HAVE
 BEEN DEAD
Says Temple Clark, of Pope,- Had It Not Been For Cardui.
 Now In Good Health.

Pope, Tenn.-"As the result of a fall from horse, suffered intense agony for about years," writes Mrs. Temple Clark, of this place. "I was irregular and had falling feelings and other wo- manly trouble. At last was induced to take Cardui, the woman's tonic, and it helped me a great deal. certainly be- lieve if it had not been for Cardui and Thedford's Black-Draught, would have been dead, instead of having the blessing of health.
 "l love dollar, but l have never seen one think as much of as do of a bottle of Cardui. could tell great deal more and not get tired. recommend it to all my friends, for am sure it will cure others as it has me-"
 Remember that Cardui is a vegetable extract, composed of valuable medicinal ingredients, which build up vitality, tone up the nerves and strengthen the wo- manly constitution.
 For over 50 years, Cardui has been in successful use. Its merit is proven and known. Using 1t is no new experiment. It has stood the greatests of all tests-the test of TIME.
