SAVES DAUGHTER
Advice of Mother no Donht Pre
vents Daughter’s Untimely End.
Ready, Ky.—" I was not able to do
anything for nearly six months,” writes
Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, "and
was down in bed for three months.
1 cannot tell you how I suffered with
my head, and with nervousness and
womanly troubles.
Our family doctor told my husband he
could not do me any good, and he had
to give it up. We tried another doctor,
but he did not help me.
At last, my mother advised me to take
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. 1 thought
it was no use for I was nearly dead and
nothing seemed to do me any good. But
I took eleven bottles, and now 1 am able
to do all of my work and my own
washing.
1 think Cardui is the best medicine in
the world. My weight has increased,
and I look the picture of health. ”
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui !
today. Delay is dangerous. We know
it will help you, for it has helped so
many thousands of other weak women
in the past 50 years.
At all druggists.
