SAVES DAUGHTER
Advice of Mother no Donbt Pre
vents Daughter’s Untimely End.
Ready, Ky.—“ I was not able to do
anything for nearly six months,” writes
Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, “and
was down in bed for three months.
I cannot tell you how I suffered with
my head, and with nervousness and
womanly troubles.
Our family doctor told my husband he
could not do me any good, and he had
1o give it up. We tried another doctor,
but he did not heip me.
At last, my mother advised me to take
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. 1 thought
it was no use for I was nearly dead and
nothing seemed to do me any good. But
I took eleven bottles, and now i am able
to do all of my work and my own
washing.
I think Cardui is the best medicine in
the world. My weight has increased,
and 1 look the picture of health. ”
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui
today. Delay is dangerous. We know
it will help you, for it has helped so
many thousands of other weak women
Is the past 60 years.
At all druggists.

MALARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the Se
rious Consequences of Neg
lect.
| Fix me up something to knock the
j malaria, doctor,” remarked a sallow
i faced, sickly looking man, entering a
I prominent physician’s office the other
) day.
The doctor stepped to his medicine
case, took down a couple of liottles, mixed
a preparation which he handed to the
patient with the customary advice to
'shake well and follow directions,’ and
resumed his seat. < > <
“Such cases are frequent,” replied the
j doctor in answer to a question. “The
' warm days and damp, chilly nights are
J certain malaria breeders and are most
j serious in those who have neglected to
I keep their stomach, liver and bowels in
j good condition. Such persons are full
l of the impurities on which the malarial j
i germ thrives, and it is from this class
I that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright’s !
1 Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim ■
; most of their victims whenever these dis
j eases are prevalent. '
The proper way to guard against the
! malarial germ and the serious diseases
I which follow it is to get into good condi
i tion by taking a reliable remedy that
| will keep the bowels clear and the liver
I healthy, and to continue with it at fre
quent intervals during the sickly season.
A dose of Prickly Ash Bitters three or
four times a week will do all of this, be
| sides stimulating the digestion, improv
I ing the appetite and keeping the bodily
energy at the highest pitch. t
Prickly Ash Bitters is known every
| where as a system tonic and bowel regu
lator. It not only removes all traces of
malarial poison from the system, but
tones up the vital organs, gives new
strength and vigor, makes the body
strong and the brain active.
“Prickly Ash Bitters is the best all-around
medicine ior the family I ever used. During the
past ten years I have always kept it in my house.
Whenever any of my family show signs of mala
lia, kidney trouble, indigestion or constipation
a few doses is all that is needed to make then
well and hearty again.—W. H. McWilliam?
