broa this place, Mrs. Brttie Bullock
wrttes as follows: "I suffered for four
yean, with womanly troubles, and during
title time, I could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere a!
a/L At times, I would have severe pains
In my left side.
The doctor was called In, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but I was
loon confined to rny tied again. After
Quit, nothing seemed to do me any good, j
11 had gotten go weak I could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband get me a bottle of
Ca/dui, the woman’s tonic, arid I com
menced taking it. I'ro'ii the very first
dose, I could tell It was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
if you are nil run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give vp in despair. Try

i
1 more titan a million women, in its 50
1 years of continuous success, and should 1
’ <
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
Isold Cardui for years. He knows what
It will do. Ask him. He will recoin
