THOUGHT SHE'D
NEVER GET UP
But Lady in Cbriesman, Who Went
to Bed With This Idea, Has
Changed Her Mind
Chricsman, Tex.? In a letter from this
place, Lillic Gibson says: "About three
years ago I was just entering womanhood
and was sick in bed for nearly nine months.
1 took medicines from four dot tors, but it
didn't help me. Sometimes I would ache
all over, and I would have such a headache
1 bad to go to bed..
I was in n b,id fix, and that is all there
is to it. 1 thought 1 would try Cardui.
Now I am cured of all my troubles, and I
shall praise Cardui as long as I live. My
sister saitl I never would gel well, but now
I ant perfectly well, and I am thankful
for what the medicine did for me."
Cardui is made from strictly vegetable
ingredients. It acts gently on the. wo?
manly organs, stimulating them to do
their proper work, relieving pain and re?
storing health.
Arc you weak, tired, worn-out? Do
you suffer from any of the pains peculiar
to weak women.' Cardui has a record of
more than fifty years in relieving just such
troubles.
Will you try it?
