| mrs. ida McDonald, I
I Supreme Deputy of the Maccabees of the World. ^
ittirs. McDonald,
|VI No. 477 Beaubien
1' ■ I Street, Detroit,
Mich., is a prom
inent woman who was
greatly benefited by the
great woman’s medicine,
Wine of Cardui. Mrs.
McDonald is the supreme
deputy of the Maccabees
of the World, and one of
the most widely known
women in the United
States. Thousands of women gather to
hear her lecture everywhere she goes.
The great work she lias done for the
Maccabees is appreciated by every
member of the order. She was so ab
sorbed in her work that she neglected
to give her health proper care—failed
to take warning that the symptoms of
approaching kidney trouble gave her,
the sallow complexion and torpid liver.
But Wine of Cardui cured her the same
as it has cured thousands of others and
Mrs. McDonald has written this letter in
order that other suffering women may
secure from Wine of Cardui the same
relief she got from it.
"For four year* I suffered with torpid
liver until my skin looked yellow and dull.
I then found my kidneys were affected and
had severe pains across my back, and I felt
! that I must do something
to regain my health. A
friend advocated your Wine
of Cardui treatment so
strongly that I decided to
try it, although I had little
| faith in patent medicines.
I I am now very thankful that
1 I did so, for within ten days
| blessed relief came to me,
i and in less than three
I months I was cured, and
I have enjoyed fine health
ever since. I know there is nothing better I
for a sick woman who wishes to enjoy per- I
feet health and am very pleased to give my I
hearty endorsement."
No suffering woman can afford to
ignore such a Tetter as Mrs. McDonald
writes. Her plans and advice have
proved valuable in building up one of
the greatest women’s organizations in
the United States and she takes time to
give advice which she knows will help
you.
Do not delay in securing this medi
cine. There is nothing to gain and
everything to lose by delay. The choice
is before you. Will or will you not
secure relief n,ow by taking Wine of
Cardui? All druggists sell $1,00 bottles
of W'ine of Cardui as well m Tr,c pack
ages of Thedford’s Black-Draught.
