Thousands of Women's Letters.
Griswold, Mo., Dec 31, 1899.
This is to certify that I have used Wine of Cardui and found it to be a great medicine. I was so weak
I could hardly do my cooking. After reading about the Wine of Cardui I got one bottle and before I used it,
I felt better than I had for a long time. I think it is the best medicine made for women. I can't make my
statement about it too strong. ELLEN ROBINSON.
We receive thousands of just such earnest letters ns this one every year. They come every (lay from every part of
America. They substantiate every claim ever made for Wine of Carui. They extol its health-giving, lifc-treservini
qualities iu the strongest terms. What better evidence could he produced of the merit of this great medicine than is
printed above? Here wa9 n woman so weak ami sick she could not attend to the ordinary duties of her home. She had
aches nnd pains until life had lost its brightness for her. One bottle of Wine of Cardui made her feel better thnn she had
felt for years. No wonder she says "you can't make my statement about it too strong." The same bimnle means that
brought about this remarkable change nre within the reach of every woman in this city. Wine of Cardui will do just us
much herens it did in Griswold, Mo. It will bring just us much happiness to your home ns to the hundreds of thousands
to which it has gone. Wine of Cardui accomplishes such far reaching results, because it is so fccientifically ndapted to
the menstrual nml trenerativeortrans from which renllvnll of women's sickness comes. Tnkcn into the system it ilistnutlv
