Wan faces, haggard eyesf ndemaciated forms are the results of suffering. What suffering -can com pare with the torture of irregular menstruation, leucorrhoea and falling of the womb 1 Beauty flees quickly before the ravages of such disease.

Leucorrhoea drains the body of its strength, but Wine of Cardui restores the natural beauty, brightens the eye, clears the complexion, rounds out the figure and brings back the vigor of health.
