Now l can do all my work, feel like
I'm not more than 16 years old, but
am really 40. My own friends say
look so well, they don't recognize me
when we meet in the road.
My daughter is using Cardui, and
she says it is a fine medicine. l also
have a number of lady friends taking
It, since they found out how it helped
me.
Whenever l feel a little fatigued
after a days extra hard work, just
take a dose of Cardui and am all
right.
l can't say too much for Cardui."
Thousands of women who now suffer
from womanly troubles, could be re-
