C. “I would suffer, when 1 stood on my feet, with bearing-down pains in my sides and the lower part of my body. I did not rest well and didn’t want anything to eat. My color was bad and 1 felt miserable. A friend of mine told me of The Woman’s Tonic and I then remembered my mother used to t2ke it.. . After the first bottle I was better. 1 began tc tleshen up and 1 re gained my strength and good, healthy color. 1 am feeling fine. 1 took twelve bottles (of Cardui) and haven’t had a bit of trouble since.” Thousands of other women have had similar experiences in the use of Cardui, which has brought relief where other medicines had failed. . If you suffer from female ail ments, take Cardui. it is a woman’s medicine. It may wc just what you need. At your druggist’s or dealer’s. E 92 PUBLICATION OF SUMMONS. Action for Alimony. Sallie O.
