A CONFESSION ;
Hopes Her Statement, Made Public,
will Help Other Women.
Hines, Ala.—“I must confess”, says
Mrs. Eula Mae Reid, of this place, "that
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, has done me
a great deal of good.
Before 1 commenced using Cardui. I
would spit up everything I ale. 1 had a
tired, sleepy feeling all the time, and was
irregular. 1 could hardly drag around,
and would have severe headaches con
tinuously.
Since faking Cardui, I have entirely
quit spitting up what I eat Everything
seems to digest all right, and I have
gained 10 pounds in weight.”
If you are a victim of any of the numer
ous ills so common to your sex, it il
wrong to suffer.
For half a century, Cardui has been re
lieving just such ills, as is proven by the
thousands of letters, similar to the above,
which pour into our office, year by year.
Cardui is successful because it is com
posed of ingredients which act specifically
on me womanly constitution, and helps
build the weakened organs back to health
and strength.
Cardui has helped others, and will help
you, too. Get a bottle today. You
won’t regret it. Your druggist sells it
