MISS MAY MARKELL,
I A Society Belle af London, Canada. I
^ m1issmaymarkell
^1 of London, Ontario,
_11 Canada, is a beauti
ful girl who knows what
suffering is and Wine of
Cardui has brought her back
to health. She is one of the
social favorites of her home
and her recovery to health
has permitted her to enjoy
the company of her many
friends instead of lying on
a uea or sicRness ana surtering. For
the health she now enjoys she gives
credit to Wine of Cardui. She writes:
”1 have found Wine of Cardui an excel
lent remedy for female trouble. I suffered
for three years with terrible bearing-down
pains at the menstrual period. I could
hardly stand on my feet and was never
real well. Wine of Cardui was the only
medicine that I could depend on to do me
any good, as I tried several with no suc
cess. Wine of Cardui cured me and I
have now enjoyed perfect health for two
years, and give you all the credit for I
know you deserve it.”
For a young girl Wine of Cardui is
the best remedy to guide her through
womanhood by starting the menstrual
- .
| flow iii a healthy and nat
ural manner. Menstruation
i started right is very easy to
keep regular through the
years of mature womanhood.
Then the “change of life”
need not be feared. Thus
Wine of Cardui is woman’s
best relief from youth to
old age. A million women
have secured blessed relief
from their sufferings by tak
mg this treatment, it relieves men
strual troubles in an incredibly short
time. In a simple case of deranged
menses Wine of Cardui never fails. To
relieve disordered menses is to remove
the cause of other female troubles. Any
physician will tell you that to remove
the cause of a disease renders the cure
easy, in fact seldom fails to complete
the cure. If you would have the same
relief which Miss Marked secured try
Wine of Cardui. You can take it with
out an examination and without any
publicity whatever. You can take it in
the privacy of your home and secure
just as much benefit as if a doctor had
prescribed it for you. Thousands of wo
men are feeling the vigor of returning
health by taking Wine of Cardui.
