When that time comes to you, you know what tonic to take-Cardui, the woman's tonic. Cardui is com posed of purely vegetable ingredients, which act gently, yet surely, on the weakened womanly organs, and helps build them back to strength and health. It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak, ailing women in its past half century of wonderful success, and it will do the same for you. You can't make a mistake in taking CARDU I The Woman's Tonic Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark., says: "I think Cardul is the greatest medicitte on earth, for women. Before I began to take C dui, I was so weak and nervous, and had such awful dizzy spells and a poor appetite. Now I feel as well and as strong as I ever did, and can eat ijfost anything." Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers. Has Helped Thousands. -F[]] xxx-EE ARE YOU . ENGAGED?
