"The blood is the life" This is as true as q
mathematical or any other scientific PROPOSE
tion and one that should influence every physi
clan. From the blood we derive our strength
and mental capabilities. When this source
is corrupted the painful and sorrow producing
effects are visible in many shapes. From our
blood our systems are built up and kept in
repair. The strength Of our constitutions and
our powers of endurance and the withstanding
of disease-producing agencies with impunity
depend largely upon the condition in which
our blood is kept. If it holds in suspension or
solution vile fostering poisons,. all organic
functions are weakened thereby. Settling
upon vital and important organs, as
the brain, lungs, liver and kidneys, the
effect of these poisons in the blood
is, many times, most disastrous. Hence,
it behooves every one to keep the blood in a
perfectly healthy condition, and the more
especially does this apply at this particular
season OF the year. When you purify your
blood to cure Salt Rheum or any Erysipe-
las humor, you not only cure those diseases,
but you put your system in such an i'm
proved condition that you are not so liable to
any other disease. No matter what the ex-
ternal or exciting cause may be, the real or
direct cause OF large proportion OF all chrons
ic or lingering diseases is bad blood. The
multifarious forms in which it manifests it
self would form subjects upon which might
write volumes. But as all the varied forms OF
disease which depend upon bad blood, few
of which | have enumerated at the head OF
this article, are cured, or best treated, by such
medicines as take up from this fluid and ex-
crete from the system the noxious elements,
it is not of practical Importance that should
describe each minutely For instance medi-
cal authorities describe about fifty varieties
of skin disease; but as they all require for
their cure very similar treatment, it is OF no
practical utility to know just what name to
apply to certain form of skin disease, so you
know how best to cure it. Then again,
might 90 on and describe various kinds OF
ScrofuloUs Sores Fever Sores, White Swell
ings, Enlarged Glands, and Ulcers Of varying
appearance; but as all these various-appear-
ing manifestations of bad blood are cured by
uniform means, / deem such a course unnec-
essary. Thoroughly cleanse the blood,
which is the great fountain of life, and good
digestion, a fair skin, buoyant spirits, vital
strength, and soundness of constitution will
all return to us.
The Liver is the great depurating, or blood
cleansing, organ of the system Set this great
" house-keeper" of our health at work, and the
foul corruptions which gender in the blood
and rot out, as it WERE the machinery of life
are gradually expelled from the system. For
this purpose my Golden Medical Discovery
and Purgative Pellets are pre-emlnently the
articles needed. They, cure every kind of
humor Except Cancer) from the worst scrof-
ula to the common pimple, blotch, or eruption.
Great, eating ulcers kindly heal under their
mighty curative influence.
Enlarged Glands, Tumors and Swellings
dwindle away and disappear under the influ
ence Of these great resOlvents. The system
being put under their influence for few
weeks, the skin becomes clear, smooth, soft,
and velvety, and, being illuminated with the
glow of perfect health from within, true
beauty stands forth in all its glory
The effects of all medicines which operate
upon the system through the medium of the
blood are necessarily somewhat slow, no mat
ter how good the remedy employed The
cure of all these diseases, however, is with the
use of these most potent agents only matter
of time.
/ do not wish to place my Golden Medical
Discovery in the catalogue of quack patent
nostrums by recommending it to cure every
disease nor do / SO recommend it, on the
contrary, there are hundreds of diseases that
/ acknowledge it viii not cure; but what
do claim is this, that there is but one form of
blood disease that it will not cure, and that
disease is Cancer. / do not recommend my
discovery for that disease, yet know it to be
the most searching blood cleanser yet discov-
cred, and that it will free the blood and sys-
tenn of all other known blood poisons, be they
animal, vegetable or mineral Blood medi-
cines that are advertised to cure Cancer
should be looked upon with suspicion. They
never can do it.
Most medicines which are advertised as
blood purifiers and liver medicines contain
either mercury in some form or potassium
and iodine variously combined. All of these
agents have a strong tendency to break down
the blood corpuscles and debilitate and 9TH
erwse permanently hjure the human system,
and should, therefore, be discarded.
Ny Golden Medical Discovery, on the other
hand, being composed of fluid extracts of
native plants, barks and roots, will in no case
