pjjplHERE ARE MANY |
sickly women be
1 * 1 tween the ages of '
45 and 55, but there are
very few .invalids over 5 5 |
and GO years of age. The 1
change of life coming to 1
a woman near her forty
fourth year, either makes
1 T. n-n /i n AT fflt70Q
her a new lease on life. Those who
meet this change in ill health sel
dom live ten years afterward, while
a woman who lays aside the active
duties of womanhood in health sel
dom fails to live on in happiness,
years after she has passed 60. This
is truly a critical time;
Mrs. Laura S. Webb, of Toledo,
Ohio, recognizes the change of life
as a dangerous period and she also
has faith in Wine of Cardui. She
; writes:
“As I; had always been troubled more
or less at the menstrual period, I dreaded
the change of life which was
fast approaching. While vis
iting with a friend I noticed
that she was taking your
Wine of Cardui, and she was
so enthusiastic about it that I ,
decided to try a bottle. I ex
perienced some relief the first
month, so I kept on taking it
for three months and now I
menstruate with no pain and
T ctiaK take it off and on now

Mrs. Laura S. Webb.
until I have passed the climax. I do not
dread it now, as I am sure that your
Wine of Cardui will be of great benefit
at this time.”
Wine of Cardui is the remedy to
re-inforce a woman against the shocjr ■
that comes with the change of life.
It re-establishes healthy functions
after years of suffering. In doing >
this it has saved thousands of suf
ferers just in, time. Do not wait
until suffering is upon you. Thor
ough preparations should be made
in advance. Begin the Wine of X
