BEFORE GOING
 TO HOSPITAL Mrs. Alexander Decided to Try Cardui, the Woman's Tonic, and is Glad
 She Did

Leon, W. Wal want to tell you," writes Mrs. Selah Alexander, of F. F. D. No. ?. this town, what your medicine, Cardui, the woman's tonic, has done for me.
 l was in very poor health, and had awful misery in my left side, and pains lower down. After trying diff ferent treatements, without them helping me, I was told that I had better go to the hospital. Before going, however, I made up my mind to try Cardui, the Woman's tonic. and before I had taken half of the first bottle, l could see 1 was getting bet ter, and before the second bottle was gene, I felt better than I had for nine years
 I am still taking Cardui, and would not be without it; in fact, I believe l would rather be without bread.
 I would advise every woman, suf- fering from any kind of womanIy trouble to take Cardui."
 If you suffer from any of the pains SO common to women, such as head ache, backache, sideache, nervous ness, sleepIessness, etc, or if you need q good, strengthening tonic, for that tired, Worn-Out feeling, give Cardui, the WOmans tonic a trial
 Cardui will surely help you, as it has so many thousands of other women.
