[ MISS IDA M. SNYDER, J

r--(ENSTRUAL irregu

ally the beginning
- of a woman’s trou
bles. With the vitality at a
low ebb, the blood weak
ened, the digestion disor
dered, she goes about pale
faced, hollow-eyed and nag
gard, a piteous contrast to
tne blooming health of
her former self? But over

to their health we would
have more happy wives*
mothers and daughters* and
if they would use more intel
ligence in the matter of medi
cines* observing results* they
would find that the doctors'
prescriptions do not perform
the many cures they are given
credit for.
“In consulting with my
druggist he advised McElree’s
Win# rtf and Thed->
health again by taking Wine of Cardui.
As a regulator of the menstrual periods
Wine of Cardui has never been Known
to foil. It ha® seldom failed to restore
perfect health, even in the most persis
tent and aggravated case of weakness.
Miss Ida M. Snyder, of No. 535 Ber
gen Street, Brooklyn, N. Y., pas used
Wine of Cardui and she says it helped
her into a new life. Health to Miss
Snyder is worth a great deal. >^be 11
an attractive young %oman with intel
lectual attainments and she occupies
the position of Treasurer of the Brook
lyn East End Art Club. This position
marks her as a person of intellect, cul
ture and refinement and it speaks highly
of the respect and trust her fellow
women have in her. She writes:
“If women would pay more attention
ford's Black-Draught, and so I took it
and hare every reason to thank him lor
a new life opened up to me with restored
health, and H only took three months to
cure me."
You may secure the same relief as
Miss Snyder, if you take Wine of Cardui
as she took it. Thedford’s Black
Draught is the companion medicine of
Wine of Cardui aad it is a liver aha *
bowel regulator which assistf groat1 y
in effecting a cure, If you take the »
medicines according to directions, the
relief and cure is simple. Some cases
are cured quickly and otberd take longer ..
because the disease has run longer.
Remember how Miss Snyder took Wine
of Cardui and has health. The same
medicines are offered you to-day.
