While suffering untold agony, a friend called and recommended Wine of Cardul. I sent for s bottle, and Oht what relief. After the first dose 1 begau to feel o pain eip.?< WiKMOrd"* Wine of Cardul not only cures but it acts AT ONCE. Here Is a case of ten years’ standing, and yet one single dose made the sufferer feel better, and stopped the pain. The Wine goes straight to the seat of the trouble. It acts directly upon the menstrual and genital organs. Its action is not violent, and it does not force a result. It simply gives Nature that little assistance that the sufferer’s system lacks. A single disorder in the feminine organs spreads many disorders all over the body, and when the Wine cures the source, all the other ills vanish as a matter of course. A woman can be her own physician and cure herself at home. Local ex aminations are largely things of the past—the obnoxious custom is no longer necessary. Wine of Cardui Is the only perfectly safe and sure vegetable Wine made to-day for the cure of “ female troubles ".
