D. T. Williams, wife of a well-known
farmer on Route 0, - this place. "I
kept getting headachee and baring to
go to bed," continues Mrs. Williams
describing the troubles from which
she obtained relief through the use of
Cardul. "My husband, baring heard
of Cardul, proposed getting it for me.
"I saw after taking some Cardul
, .. that I was lmproring. The result
was surprising. I felt like a different
person.
"Later I suffered from weakness
and weak back, and felt all run-down.
I did not rest well at night, I was so
nerrons and cross. My husband said
he would get me some Cardul, which
he did. It strengthened me . . . My
doctor said I got along- fine. 4 was in
good healthy condition. I cannot
say too much for it" . i
