 Question.

Mangham, La.-Mrs. Liza Barber, of this town, who has returned from @ trip in West and Middle Tennessee, has the following to say: T have been on trip in Middle and West Tennes- see where found many ladies using Cardui, the woman's tonic. While travelling took great pleasure in tell ing what 1t had done for mel not only praised Cardui-but advised poor suffering women to take it. know that Cardui cured me and l believe 1t will do the same for other women.
 Sometime ago, I could hardly stand on my feet, and I had given up ever having good health. After using two bottles of Cardui I could tell 1t was helping me. and continued taking 1t for awhile. l soon felt as we'll as I ever did, and could do all of my work.
 I shall always praise this great medicine to every suffering woman. think there is no other half so good"
 Mrs. Barber would have found weak, ailing women taking Cardui al- most anywhere she could have gone, because Cardui is recognized as the standard woman's tonic It has helped more than a million women back to health and strength in the past 50 years.
