"After my first baby was born I did not
seem to regain ray strength although the
doctor gave me a tonic which ht considered
very superior, but instead cf getting
better I grew weaker every day. My hasbend
Insisted that I take Wine of Cardui
' for a week and sec what it would do for
me. I did take the medicine, and was very
grateful to find my strength and health
> slowly returning. In two weeks I was out
. of bed and In a month I was able to take
' up my usual duties. I am very enthusiastic
In its praise."
Wine of Cardui reinforces the organs
of generation for tho ordeal of pregnancy
and childbirth. It prevents miscarriage.
No woman who takes Wine
i of Cardui need fear the coming of her
child. If Mrs. Unrath had taken
Wine of Cardui before her baby came
she would not have been weakened as
she was. Her rapid recovery should
i commend this great remedy to every
expectant mother. Wine of Cardui
regulates the menstrual flow.
