and rushing of blood to the brain.
What to try 1 knew not, for it
seemed that I had tried all and
failed, but I had never tried Wine
of Cardui. that blessed remedy for
sick women. 1 found it pleasant
to take and soon knew that I had
the right medicine. New blood
seemed to course through my veins
and after using eleven bottles I
was a well woman.
Mrs. Bush is now in perfect
health because she took Wine of
Cardui for menstrual disorders,
bearing down pains and blinding
headaches when all other remedies
failed to bring her relief. Any
sufferer may secure health by tak
ing Wine of Cardui in her home.
The first bottle convinces the pa
tient she is on the road to health.

the germs that produce Malaria, breed

there spread throughout the system
b/ means of the blood. This fact ex
plains why Malaria is bard to cure by
the old method of treatment. Quinine,

build up the blood, but do not destroy
the germs that cause the disease.
Kydale’s Tonic has a specific effect
upon the intestines and bowels, freeir*'

infest the veins and arteries. It drives
