Helps
Sick
Women
Cardui, the woman’s
tonic, helped Mrs. Wil
liam Eversole, of Hazel
Patch, Ky. Read what
she writes: “I had a
general breaking-down
of my health. I was in
bed for weeks, unable to
get up. I had such a
weakness and dizziness,
. . . and the pains were
very severe. A friend
to<d me t had tried every
thing else, why not
Cardui?... I did, and
soon saw it was helping
me . . . After 12 bottles,
I am strong and well.”
TAKE
The Woman’s Tonic
Do you feel weak, diz
zy, worn-out? Is your
lack of good health caused
from any of the com
plaints so common to
women? Then why not
give Cardui a trial? It
should surely do for you
what it has done for so
many thousands of other
women who suffered—it
should help you back to
health.
Ask some lady friend
who has taken Cardui.
She will tell you how it
helped her. Try Cardui.

the tapping of their picks may often
be heard in ore bodies not yet reached
