By Paracamph.
Mr E. L. Hawkins, 123 West 27th
St., New York City, Says:
“I have used Paracamph in a severe case
of Rheumatism, and will say that I got
immediate, relief. I have tried almost
every preparation that is now before the
public, and find that Paracamph is with
out question the best remedy for Rheu
matism. I wish you success aud heartily
recommed Paracamph ”
Jlr Hawkins is only one out of many
thousands that have been cured by the
wonderful penetrating remedy Paracamph
This new remedy is a scientific prepara
tion which when applied, opens the pores
of the skin, allowing the soothing, cool
ing oils to penetrate toseatof theailment,
removing the soreness aud congestion,
drawing out the fever and inflammation
by inducing sweating. It sweats out the
pain and aches, and this is Nature s plan.
Don't ruin your stomach with strong
internal medicines for Rheumatism, Neu
ralgia, Sore Joints, etc. We guarantee
Paracamph to relieve aud cure you if used
as directed. If it fails your druggist will
refund your money. If your druggist don't
handle Paracamph ask him to get for you.
If he won’t do this send direct to us.
But don't hike any substitute because there
is nothing just as good. Paracamph is sold
only in 25 cent, 50 cent, and fi.00 bottles.
The 50 cent size contains three times as
much as the 25 cent size; the«i .00 bottles
eight times as much as the 25 cent size.

irxiiss MAY MARKELL
J^l of London, Ontario,
■ * 1 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 lvintr on
flow in a healthy and nat
ural manner. Menstruation
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 sufferinus bv tak
Miss May Markell.
a bed of sickness and suffering. For
the health she now enjoys she gives
credit to Wine of Cardui. She writes:
ul have found Wine of Cardui an excel
lent remedy for female trouble. 1 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 <4 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 Wino of Cardui is
the best remedy to guide her through
womanhood by starting the menstrual
ing 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.
