For nearly four years I suffered from ovarian troubles. The doc­ tor insisted on an operation as the only way to get well. I, however, strongly objected to an operation. My husband felt disheartened as well as I, for home with a sick woman is a disconsolate place at best. A friendlv druggist advised him to get a bottle of Wine of Cardui for me to try, and he did BO. I began to improve in a few days and my recovery was very rapid. With­ in eighteen weeks I was another being. jb Mrs. Stowe's letter shows every woman how a home is saddened by female weaknea and how completely Wine of Cardui cures that sick­ ness and brings health and happi­ ness again. Do not go on suffer­ ing. Go to your druggist today and secure a $1.00 bottle of Wine of Cardui.
