Husband Rescues Despairing Wife in Kentucky Tale
In Catron Kentucky Bettie Bullock writes of four years of suffering from womanly troubles. After weak, bedridden periods she credits her husband with sending a bottle of Cardus, a woman's tonic now sold as Cardui, which she says restored her strength enough to walk two miles and perform chores. The letter urges others to try Cardui and to request the 64 page treatment booklet from Chattanooga Medicine Co.
