North Carolina Lady Writes Inter.
esting Letter Relating Her
Mothers Experiences

Taylorville, n C.-In an interest
ing letter from this place, Mrs. Stella
NJ Bowman writes as follows: MY
mother was weak and run down. and
was in bed for nine weeks. She was
not able to do any of her work.
Some lady told her about Cardui,
the woman's tonic. She decided to
try 1t, and after taking three bottles,
was able to do all of her household
work.
You may publish this letter if you
wish, as it would be great pleasure
for me TO know that l have been of
help to some suffering woman"
The best way to relieve womanly
troubles, pains, headache, backache,
ETC., is to help nature by taking
Cardui.
Cardui has not only been found OF
great assistance in relieving the most
serious cases of womanly trouble.
but has also proven itself an ideal
strength building tonic for weak,
tired, nervous women.
Cardui Is successful because 1t is
composed d. ingredients that act Of
fectively on the womanly constitu-
ton. and build up health and
strength in a natural manner. 1t is
strictly woman's medicine pre-
pared exclusively for women.
Fifty years success in relieving
aches and pains Of other weak and
ailing women Is good reason TO be-
lieve that Cardui should help you,
too.
