Finally, my husband decided he
wanted me to try Cardui, the wo-
mans tonic, so he bought me a bot

more good than all the medicines ]

l have induced many of my friends
TO try Cardui, and they all say they
have been benefited by It's use.
There never has been, and never
will he, medicine to compare with
Cardui.
l believe 1t is a good medicine for
all womanly troubles,
You can rely absolutely on Cardui,
the woman's tonic.
For more than so years, practi-
caIly an average lifetime, it has been
going right to the seat CT most forms
of womanly trouble, building UP the
weakened organs to their natural
state, thereby restoring strength and

In this half century of time It has
