M Your booklet came to my
home like a message of health
when I had suffered with
headache, backache and bear
ing-down pains. I was weak,
nervous and hysterical and
had not consulted any doctor,
thinking it would pass away
in time, but instead I found
that the pains increased and
were more frequent. I de

nervous tension. The nerves
soon begin to give way under
the strain. Youperhaps jump
at any unusual disturbance,
or laugh or weep, hysteri
cally, at no apparent cause.
That is what Miss Fay Lee,
603J^ North Seventh Street,
Kansas City, Kansas, was
coming to when She rescued
herself by taking Wine of
Cardui. The Wine made
her a strong, healthy woman
improved. It seemed to act like a charm.
I kept up the treatment and the result
was most satisfactory. Vords fail to ex
press my gratitude for the suffering that
is cow saved me. I am in fine health,
physically and mentally. I can only say
‘thank you’, but there is much more in
my heart for you.”
EARING-DOWN pains are the
worst that women know. If
you are suffering from this trou
ble you need not be uncertain
about it. The pains in the abdomen
and back that feel as if heavyweights
were pulling down on the nerves of the
stomach are “bearing-down pains".
They may not be particularly severe at
present but they are growing worse.
That headache which nearly drives you
distracted now is caused by the terrible
again, aa it has made a million, other
women strong and healthy. By indue- j
ing regular menstruation the entire
system i3 relieved of the terrible wasting
drains. The ligaments which hold the j
womb in place are strengthened by a
healthy flow and that organ is returned
to its normal position. Returning
health is the result. This is what
Wine of Cardui has done for thousands
of the best women in America.

Advisory Department, The Chatta
