Women are the real heroes of the world. Thousands on thousands of them endure the dragging torture of the ills peculiar to womankind in the silence of borne. They suffer on and months, years. The story of weakness and torture is written in the drawn features, in the sallow skin, in the listless eyes, in the lines of care and worry on the face. Inborn modesty seals their lips.

They prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has made them believe the only hope of relief lies in the exposure of examination and "local treatment." Take ten cases of "female weakness" and in nine of them "local treatment" is unnecessary, There is no reason why modest, sensitive women should submit to it. McELREE'S WINEOFCARDUI is a vegetable It exerts a wonderfully healing, strengthening and soothing influence over the organs pf womankind, It invigorates ano etimulates the stem.
