“ Your booklet came to my
home like a message of healtn
when I had •offered with
headache, backache and bear
ing-down pains. I was weak,
nervous and hysterical and
had not consulted any doctor,
thinking it would pass away
in time, but instead I found
that the pains increased and
were more frequent. I de
cided to try Vine of Cardui
and in a short time was much
improved, it seemed to act nice a cnarm.
I kept up the treatment and the result
was most satisfactory. Words fail to ex
press my gratitude for the suffering that
is now saved me. I am in fine health,
physically and mentally. I can only say
*thank you', but there is much more in
my heart for you."
IEARING-DOWN pains are the
worst that women know. If
_ you are suffering from this trou
ble you need not be uncertain
about it. The pains in the abdomen
and back that feel as if heavy weights
were pulling down on the nerves of the
stomach are “bearing-down pains”.
They may not be particularly severe at
present but thev are growing worse.
That headache which nearly drives you
distracted now is caused by the terrible
nervous tension. The nerves
soon begin to give way under
the strain. You perhaps jump
at any unusual disturbance,
or laugh or weep, hysUri
cally, at no apparent cause.
That is what Miss Fay Lee,
603North Seventh Street,
Kansas City, Kansas, was
coming to when She rescued
herself by taking Wine of
Cardui. The Wine made
her a strong, healthy woman
again, as 11 nas maae a minion other
women strong and healthy. By indno
ing regular menstruation the entire
system is relieved of the terrible wasting
drains. The ligaments which hold the
womb in place are strengthened by a
healthy flow and that organ is returned
to its normal position. Returning
health is the result. This is what
Wine of Cardui has done for thousands
of the best women in America.
If yon need advice write The Ladies’
Advisory Department, The Chatta
nooga Medicine Company, Chattanooga,
Train., describing all your symptoms
freely, and a letter of advice will be
sent you. Secure a $1.00 bottle of Wine
of Cardui from your druggist to-day.
