■^lHERE ARE MANY
I sickly women be
■ tween the ages of
4 5 and 55, but there are
very few invalids over 55
and 60 years of age. The
change of life coming to
a woman near her forty
fourth year, either makes
her an invalid or gives
the change of life which waa
fast approaching. While vis
iting with a friend I noticed '
that she was taking your
Wine of Cardui. and she was
so enthusiastic about it that 1
decided to try a bottle. I ex
perienced some relief the first
month, so 1 kept on taking it
for three months and now I
menstruate with no pain and
I shall take it off and on now
her a new lease on life. Those who
meet this change in ill health sel
dom live ten years afterward, while
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.
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 I 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 shock
that comes with the change of life.
It re-establishes healthy fnnctions
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
ough preparations should be made
in advanoe. Begin the Wine of
Cardui treatment today.
