"rTTCn&za
Antioch, Mitt., May 3, 1900.
I write this to try to explain my use and also to thank you for the great benefit I have derived from the use
of your Wine of Cardui. I am 29 years old and have been married 12 years and have six chi'dren. I was taken
last June with something like smothering spells. My flesh felt dead. I had heart palpitation ; seemed like my lungs
were full of needles. I had a burning sensation right under my left breast i was short of breath. I could not hold
sti'l at all. I had six doctors but none of them did me any good. The last one said my womb was bent backwards.
Ilr straightened it and then it came down. I had hat Is called falling of the womb. The doctor gave me a sup.
porter and a pessary. I had no stomach to eat and was io weak that I could hardly walk across the room. I have
taken six bottles of Wine of Cardui and it has helped me. My monthly sickness stopped on me and Wine of Cardui
corrected that so that my periods are regular now and I feel better than I have In nine months. I can do all my
housework and I go to see my neighbors on foot Mrs. UZZIE MORGAN.
Wine of Cardui in curing Mrs. Morgan proved itself worthy of its reputation as the "leading
female remedy made". Mrs. Morgan was suffering agonies continually, with six doctors around her. But
Wine of Cardui proved to be the remedy she needed. There are thousands of women to-day who need
WINE CARDUI
who would be cured of every pain as easily as Mrs. Morgan was. It will cure YOU the same as it
cured her. Do you know that you can purchase a bottle of Wine of Cardui at the nearest drug store
for $1.00, and. by treating yourself in the privacy of your own home, gti relief from all those painful
diseases to which women are subject? Is not that preferable to the dreaded examination, which is
Inseparable from the " doctoring" of a local practician ? At least try Wine of Cardui. We believe it
will cure you at home.

PICTURE TO PRISON.
Bernard Kinsler Claimed It Was
His l!rides Likeness: Louise
Schaefer's Denial.
Are Bernard Kinsler. now serving a term
In the Missouri Penitentiary, and LoaNo
r-chai'fer of No. 'JSM Missouri avenue, hus
band and wife, or are they only sweet
hearts? This is it question that Mrs.
Schaef. r. the mot lit r of the j-ourg ladj-.
niium iiKo to nave answered. Kinsler de
clares thej- were married last October;
Miss Schafer sajs they nre onlj- rerj
dear friends. Kinsler and IiuNe Schaefer
are ce-ntr.il figure s In ii prettj- romance, a
story of true love that even the disgrace
of a sentence to the penltintlary could not
shake.
Kinsler vias convicted of robbing Louis
Hatavia. cigar dealer, at No. 1U North
Ninth street, and was sent. need to the
penitentiary lor two ears. A few das ago
ho was transferred to the penitentiary by
Deputv Sheriffs Hart man and Wassir. Ou
his pirson was found a small china button
on which was a picture of a voung girl.
The Warden demanded that Kinsler sur
render the button. Kinsler at first refused,
but finally broke down and wept. He sail
that tho picture was of his joung wife, to
whom he was marrie-d secretly H.-t Oc
tober. "1 had lntendeel to keep my secret
until I had served my se-nttnee end then
etiiru to my bride All I had to -heer me
In lhe dreary jears to e-ome in these walls
was this picture-. Though I was eonilctJd
she knows that I was not gulltv."
Miss Sehaefir denleel last night fiat she
was married In Kinsler. "I .In believe- .hat
Hernar I Is Innocent." she said, "and I am
c. rtaln that in tl-nc it will be prou'ii. I
did nil I coiilel fcr him while he was in
prison here, mid 1 propose to continue to do
so uatil I clear ids name and secure his
rclea-e."
Mrs. Scliaefer denied any knowledgo of
he r elaughter's marriage and said that she
did not believe thlt she was married. "My
elaughter and Kinsler." she said, "did go
tog. ther a good deal, and I always rc
gardei! them as verj- close friends, out I
don't think th. y are married. I don't see
ho.i- they could hale been without my hav
