The blood is the life" This is as true as
mathematical or any other scientific PROPOSE
ton, 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
efectS 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-producmg 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
unctlons 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 perfectly healthy condition, and the
more especially does this apply at this partic-
ular season of the year. When vou 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 inn
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 chrOn-
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 infinitely. For instance,
medical authorities describe about fifty varie-
ties 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 a 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 diges-
ton, fair skin, buoyant spirits, vital strength
and soundness Of constitution will all return
to US.
The liver is the great depurating, or blood
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 Discov-
cry and Purgative Pellets are pre-eminently
the articles needed, They cure every kind of
humor Except Cancer), from the worst
scrofula 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 a few
weeks, the skin becomes clear, smooth, soft,
and yelvety, 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 a
matter Of time.
/ do not wish to place my Golden Medical
Discovery in the catalogue of quack patent
nostrums bv recommending it to cure every
disease. nor do l so recommend it; on the
contrary. there are hundreds of diseases that
acknowledge it will 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 dis
covered. and that it will free the blood and
system of all other known blood poisons, be
thev animal, vegetable or mineral. Blood
medicines 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
erwise permanently iniure the human system,
and should therefore be discarded.
Ny Golden Medical Discovery on the other
hand being composed OF fluid extracts Of
native plants, banks and roots, Will IN no case
produce injury, its effects being Strengthening
and curative only. Sarsaparilla, which used
to enjoy quite a reputation as a blood puri-
fer, is a renaedg OF thirty gears ago, and may
well give place, as it is doing, to the more
positive and valuable vegetable alternatives
which later medical investigation and discov-
cry have brought to light.
Both Discovery and Pellets are sold by all
frst-class druggists in all parts of the world.
DOCTORS COULDN'T HELP HIM.

".
fifteen wears of age I took what is called
Kings Evil or scrofula, and by constant doc
toring it would heal in one place and break
ont in another. II also broke out in nv left
ear sent ten miles for the first bottle Of
your Discovery, which did me more good
than all other medicines ever used. | am
now twenty-eight years old, and doctored
with five doctors; not one one, Of them helped
me so much as one bottle OF your Discov-
cry. I am well and able to do good days
work.
SALT RHEUM AND ERUPTIoNs CURED.
Mrs. A. W. WILLIAMS, Claverack, Columbia
County, n Y, writes: | had been afflicted
with Salt Rheum in its worst form for a great
many years, until bought your Golden Med
zeal Discovery and took two bottles and a
half, and was entirely cured. From nv
