rffTJIINE OF CARDUI
W is a thoroughly
| f f | scientific and mod
em remedy, meet
ing the needs of the modem
woman in the modem way
—without the torture of an
operation. WineofGardui
has cured them in the pri
vacy of their homes and it
has found a place in the
hearts of American women
that no other medicine ba3 round, in
their gratitude over 10,000 American
women have written letters commend
ing Wine of Cardui. Wine of Cardui
I meets their wants as no other medicine
does. It sustains the young girl at the
shock of her entrance to womanhood.
Women who take Wine of Cardui have
little discomfort during pregnancy and
little pain at childbirth. When the
change of life appears they enter a
happy, healthy old age. Every month it
comes to the rescue to assist Nature in
throwing the impurities from the body.
Miss Sarah Finley, of Memphis,
Tenn., vice-president of the Palmetto
Club of that city, speaks for herself and
many friends ‘when she bestows the
Eollowing praiae on Wine
oi Cardui:
“Among the numerous
medicines placed before suf
fering women for their relief
none can touch McElree’s
Wine of Cardui. It towers
above them all as a reliable
female remedy. It simply
drives pain and disease away
and restores health in an increoiwy snori
period. I have taken great interest in this
mrAirin* lor the past two years, since it
brought health and strength to me. I
have recommended it to a number
of my friends and they who have used it
speak of it in the highest terms and I feel
that it is praise well bestowed.”
If you are suffering from female
weakness "W ine of Cardui is the medi
cine you need.
You can have health the same as
Miss Finley if you will take the Wine
of Cardui treatment. If you need ad
vice further than the complete direc
tions given on the bottle, address The
Ladies Advisory Department, Chatta
