Mrs. Martin Tells About a Painful
Experience that Might Have
Ended Seriously.
Rlvesvllle, W. Va. Mr. Don Martin,
In a letter from Rlvesvllle, writes:
"For three yean, I tuffered with wo
manly troubles, and had pains In my
back and side. I was nervous and
could not sleep at night.
The doctor could not help me. Ht
Hid I would hare to be operated on be
fore I could get better. I thought I
would try using Cardul.
Now, I am entirely well.
I am sure Cardul eared my life. I
will nerer be without Cardul In my
home. I recommend It to my friends."
For fifty years, Cardul has been re
lleTlng pain and drstrestt caused by wo
manly trouble. It will surely help you.
It goes to the spot reaches the
trouble relieves the symptoms, and
driven away the cause.
If you suffer from any symptoms of
womanly trouble, take Cardul.
