RS. ALTHEA BURRIS. 802
E. Vine Ave.. Knoxville,
Tenn., of whom a picture la
printed above, writes:
• I suffered a great deal and
a long time with a pain In
my side and extreme weakness
In my bock. It hurt me to

on my feet.
"I was looking around for
something to help me.

read in the newspaper about
Cardui. and decided to try it.
After my first bottle, I felt
better.
I continued taking
Cardui until I had finished
six bottles. By that time, I
was stronger and better than
I had been in a long time."
Cardui has been In use by
women for over 50 years. Try
it for your troubles.
