How women and girls
may get wanted relief
from functional periodic pain
fclll I 111 IIM1II I .1 I ■ ■ I MM3
Cardui is a liquid medicine
which many women say has
brought relief from the cramp-
like agony and nervous strain
of functional periodic distress.
Here’s how it may help:
• —Taken like a tonic, it
* should stimulate appe-
tite, aid digestion,*
thus help build resist-
ance for the “titae” to
come.
2.Started 3 days before
" “your time”, it should
help relieve pain due
r INTO \ to purely functional
r’rs/ie}p%y periodic causes, fe
Try Cardui. If it helps,
* you’ll be glad you did.
