"For five years 1 was not able to do
my work. Half of my time I spent in
bed. I suffered with female weakness
and took such nervous spells I could
not stand on my feet. I Buffered with
my back and side, and fell off till I be-
came a skeleton.
"At last I took Cardui and now I am
well and happy and can do my own
work."
Cardui is prepared from the natural
plant, not from mineral, synthetic com-
pounds, and contains no coal tar prod-
ucts or other results of laboratory ex-
periments.

for weak women. Try It. I "

"It is amazing what au ungallant
outlook some men have. 1 said one
day to a Bucks county farmer:

Woman s Power
Woman's most glorious endowment is the power
to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of u
worthy man. W hen she loses it and still loves on,
no one in the wide world can know the heart agony
*he endures. The woman who suffers from weak-
ness and derangement of her special womanly or-
ganism soon loses the power to sway the heart of
e man. Her general health suffers and she loses
tier good looks, her attractiveness, her amiability
end her power and prestige as a ioman. Dr. K.V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.Y., with
(he assistance of his staff of able physicians, has prescribed for und cured many
thousands of women. He has devised a successful remedy for woman's ail-
ments. It is known as I)r. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is a positive
specific for the weaknesses and disorders peculiar to women. It purifies, regu-
lates, strengthens and heals. Medicine dealers sell it. No honest dealer will
advise you to accept a substitute in order to make a little larger profit.
