the change of life which was '■

meet this change in ill health sel
I dom live ten years afterward, while
l a woman who lays aside the active
! duties of womanhood in health sel
dom fails to live on in happiness,
years after she has passed 60. This
is truly a critical time,
j Mrs. Laura S. Webb, of Toledo,
Ohio, recognizes the change of life
as a dangerous period and she also
has faith in Wine of Cardui. She
writes:
“As 1 had always been troubled more
or less at the menstrual period, 1 dreaded
until I have passed the climax. I do not
dread it now, as I am sure that your
Wine of Cardui will be of great benefit
at this time.”
Wine of Cardui is the remedy to
re-inforce a woman against the I
that comes with the change of life.
It re-establishes healthy functions f
after years of suffering. In doing
this it has saved thousands of suf
ferers just in time. Do not wait
until suffering is upon you. Thor

in °advance. Begin the Wine of
