Ml Ator, N. C—Mrs. Sarah M. Chap-
Pelt of Bn* town, says: “I suffered tor
live years with womanly troubles, also
stomach troubles, and my pitnisnnienl
was more than any one could tell.
I tried most every ktnd ot me#Tins,
but none did me any good.
i read one day about Cardul, the wo*
■ttn’s tonic, and I decided to try iL I
had not taken but about six bottles until
1 was almost cured. It did me more
good than all the other medicines 1 had
fried, put together.
My friends began asking me why I-
looked so well, and I told them about
CarduL Several are now taking it.”
Do you, lady reader, tutter from any
Of the ailments due to womanly trouble,
such as headache, backache, sideache,
sleeplessness, and that everlastingly died
II so, let ns urge you to give Cardul a
trial, we feel confident it will help you,
just as It has a million oUtsr women in
the past half century.
Begin taking Cardul to-day. You
won’t regret it AM druggists.
