I MRS. HELENA BLAV, I
_Young Milw&uKee Society Woman. J
r^pillN thousand cured
I women have written
U to tell how Wine of
Cardui bestows the
1 blessing of health on every
woman who takes it, rich
and poor alike. Mrs.
Helena Blau, No. 123 Sev
enth Street, Milwaukee,
Wis., is one of the young
women whom Wine of Car
dui has rescued from a life
of siifferincr. She writes: ■
“Wine of Cardui is certainly 'worn
out’ women’s best friend and I am pleased
to give my experience with it. A few
months ago I caught a severe cold, hav
ing been out in inclement weather, which
settled all over me, particularly in the
abdomen. I was in almost constant pain.
I consulted a physician and took his
medicine for a month and without any
relief. I then decided I would try your
medicine and it was a lucky day for me
when I did so. I noticed a change in a
few days and felt encouraged to continue
taking Wine of Cardui, and my patience
was rewarded, for in two week* my pains
had left me and ? felt like a new woman.”
The woman who has suf- ,
ered from female weakness
should do anything within
reason to secure health.
Wine of Cardui is the medi
cine that appeals to reasona
ble women — women who
hold operations and cutting
in horror—women who know
that Nature is the best phy
sician. Wine of Cardui
gives women hack their
health bv giving Nature a
chance to build up the wasted and dis
eased tissue. Wine of Cardui regulates
the menstrual flow and Nature, when
relieved of the drains or of the poisons
in the system, makes the functional
organs strong and healthy again.
Any woman who is silently suffering
untold pains because she is too sensitive
to undergo a physician’s examination
and treatment can find no excuse for
not securing relief when Wine of Car
dui is offered to her. There is no pub
licity to deter her. She can take Wine
of Cardui in the privacy of her home,
with as much assurance of a final cure
as though a dozen doctors recommended
it. Many physicians do recommend
Wine of Cardui to their patients.
Why not get a $1.00 bottle of Wine
of Cardui from your druggist today ?
Mrs. Helena Blau.
