"I suffered with my head and back, for over six years, H and although I tried everything, I never could get any Bj thing to do me any good, until 1 began to take Cardui. "Cardui has surely helped me and built me up and I am so thankful that 1 have found something that will do H me good. 1 feel so much stronger and better than I have in a long time." It is well to make up your mind before you are sick what medicine you will take when you are sick. Pi* CARDUI I I The Woman's Tonic I You will be glad to take it when you are tired, mis H erable and when life seems a weary grind. It will put I new thoughts into your head, fresh courage into your mind. If not sick now, at least burn Cardui on to the pages H of your memory, so that when you are sick you will ask I for it without thinking. I If sick or weak, get a bottle today. At all druggists.
