Floral, Ark.?"I must speak a go< word lor Cardui," writes Mrs. Viola Baker, of this place. "About a month ago I was in very bad health. 1 was so weak and nervous thal I was not able to do my housework. "My husband bought me one bottle ot Cardui, the woman's lonic. I took it ac? cording to directions and now l am in good health. "I think Cardui is a iine tortic for weak women." And you are not the only lady who thinks so, Mrs. Baker. Thousands, like you, have written to tell of the wonderful benefit Cardui has been to them. Cardui contains no minerals, or other powerful drugs. It contains no glycerin or other mawicish-tasting ingrcdients. lt is just a pure, natural extract, of natural vegetable herbs, that have been found to regulate the womanly functiona and strengtben the female system. All druggists sell Cardui. See yours about it. R, R-Wrttt to: Ladies* Adrlsory D?t. Chirta nooga Medicint Co.. Chattanonga,Terui.. lor SptcM Jnnructior.s, and 64-pace book.
