Suggestion.
Newburg, Ala.—“For more than a
year,” writes Myrtle Cothrum, of this
place, “I suffered with terrible pains in
my back and head. I had a sallow
complexion, and my face was covered
with pimples. Our family doctor only
gave me temporary relief.
A friend of mine advised me to try
Cardui, so I began taking it, at once,
and with the best results, for I was
cured after taking two bottles. My
mother and my aunt have also used
Cardui and were greatly benefited.
I slfall always praise Cardui to sick :
and suffering women.”
