HUSBAND RESCUED '
DESPAIRING WIFE
u-lcr Four Years of Discouraging
Conditions Mrs Bullock Gave
Up in Despair Husband
Came to Rescue
Catron Ky — In an interesting letter
from this place Mrs Bettie Bullock
writes as follows : "I suffered for four
years with womanly troubles and during
this time I could only sit up for a little
while and could not walk anywhere at
all At times 1 would have severe pains
in my left side
The doctor was called In and his treat-
ment relieved me for a while but I was
soon confined to my bed again After
that nothing seemed to do me any good
1 had gotten so weak I could not stand
and 1 gave up in despair
At last my husband got me a bottle ot
Cardui the woman’s tonic and I com-
menced taking it From the very first
dose I could tell it was helping me 1
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me and am doing all my work"
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles don’t give up In despair Try
Cardui the woman’s tonic It has helped
more than a million women in its 50
years ot continuous success and should
surely help you too Your druggist lias
sold Cardui for years He knows what
it will do Ask him He will recom-
mend it Begin taking Cardui today
