1.-THE following we extract from little book on
Chronic Diseases. by r. V. PIERCE, NJ. D., of Buff
falo, N Y. Our readers receive this interesting
and useful little book, post paid, by enclosing one
postage stamp to the doctorl
Consumption.
The great prevalence of this disease,
and its fatal results, are well calculated
to enlist our best efforts for its cure
What is Consumption 1t is a disease
of the lungs, produced by an acrid and
impure condition of the blood, which,
circulating through these most delicate
organs, poisons and irritates their it's
sues and invites scrofulous humors Of
the blood, causing the deposition of
tubercles and establishing local scro-
fula. Another prolific exciting cause of
the development of scrofulous disease
of the lungs, or tubercular consump-
tion, is Chronic Nasal CaoaTrn, which,
extending along the mucous lining
membrane of the throat, trachea and
bronchial tubes, finally attacks the
substance of the lungs, and here estab-
fishes such an irritation as to invite
the blood to deposit its burden of i'm
purities in these organs. Consumption
itself is not so often hereditary as is
generally supposed. That condition
Of low vitality may be transmitted from
parents to children is unuuestonably
true. 1t is this deficiency Of vitality
which IS inherited-a weakness which
makes nutrition imperfect, and leads
to the deposite OF tubercles. But thou
sands of persons who inherit feeble
vitality would never suffer from con
sumption if the functions OF the system
were kept correct and the blood pure
When the liver becomes torpid, and bnt
very imperfectly pours off the effete,
poisonous materials of the blood, the
lungs, as has before been shown, be-
come irritated. The general health
becomes broken down, and the person
feels languid, weak, faint, drowsy and
confused Pain in the right side, in
the region of the liver, and sympa-
thetic pain in the shoulders and spine,
and through the lungs, is generally
complained of. The patient soon has
dry, hacking cough-thatli liver cough
Small minute tubercles are developed
in the lungs, and perhaps exisist for
months all unknown to their victim
Nothing IS done to remove tubercles by
the ordinary treatment. Cough is only
a symptom of the disease, yet this only
is aimed at III the usual treatment
There is no rational way to cure con-
cumption except to purify the blood.
Those poisonous materials III the blood
which cause the tubercles must be
thrown off by exciting the liver to ac-
ton. Vitality must be supported, the
system nourished and built up, and the
development of tubercles thus prevent
ed. Remove the blood poison by re-
storing the action of the liver, and the
cough, which is only a symptom of the
real disease, in relieved. You thereby

ton and cure the patient.
From the properties and remedial
effects of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, which / have in the preced
ing pages fully explained, the reader
Will readily understand why it has been
so successful in curing this fatal NAL
ady
With it I have arrested the hacking
and harassslng cough, the night sweats
and hectic fever of the consumptive
invalid; snatched from the Jaws of
death and restored to health and hap
plness many who, but for my Discoy-
cry, must soon have fallen victims to
that relentless foe. God, / believe, has
lnstilled into the roots and plants from
which this wonderful medicine Is ex-
tracted, the healing properties, by the
use of which, Consumption, the scourge
of the human family, may, in its early
stages, be promptly arrested and per
manently cured. do not wish to de
lude, fatter, and then disappoint the
afflicted by asserting that this can be
accomplished when the lungs are half
consumed, as many do who, being de
void of all conscience, aim to hum
bug the afflicted, that they may sell
their often worse than worthless com
pounds.
But if my Alt. Ext, or Goiden Ned
zeal Discovery, is employed in the first
or early stages of the disease, | know
from ample observation and actual test
IN hundreds of cases. that it will posi-
lively arrest the disease and restore
health and strength. From its wonder

thought of calling it my Consumptive
Cure; but from the TACT that 1T is per
feet specific for the sore throat and
hoarseness to which ministers and 9th
er public speakers and singers are sub
ject, and also for Bronchitis, and all
seUerc Coughs, and is an invaluable
remedy for diseases of the Liver. and
also as a Blood Purifier. | decided not
to apply to it a name whicI might mis-
lead and prevent its use IN other dis
eases for which it is so admirably
adapted.
