Eight months ago I was so ill that I was compelled to lie or sit down nearly all the time. My stomach was so weak and upset that I could keep nothing? on it and I vomited frequently. I could not urinate without great pain and I coughed so much that my throat and lungs were raw . and" sore. The doctors pro nounced it Bright 'b disease Eind others said it was consumption. It mattered little to mo what -they called it and I had no de sire to live. A sister visited me from St. Louis and asked 1110 if T had over tried Vino of Cards:. I told her I had not aud sho bought a bottle.- I believe that it saved my 1 i f c. I believe mariy women could save much suffer ing if they but knew of its value."
