Cardui acts promptly, yet gently, and without bad effects, on the womanly system, relieving pain, building up strength, regulating the system, and toning up the nerves. During the past half century, thousands of ladies have written to tell of the quick curative results they obtained, from the use of this well-known medicine. Mrs. Jane Callehan suffered from womanly trouble for nearly ten years. In a letter from Whiteville, N. C., she says: “I was not able to do my own housework. My stomach was weak, and my blood was wrong. 1 had back ache, and w’as very weak. I tried several doctors, but they did me no good. 1 used Cardui for 3or 4 months, and now lam in the best health 1 have ever been. 1 can never praise Cardui enough.” It is the best tonic, for women.
