American Genius. Moody & sankey.

The great revivalists, Messrs Moody and Sankey
who electrified staid old England with their elo-
quence and enthusiasm fair samples of Ameri-
can genius. Springing from among fhe common peo-
pie, their sympathes are alive to the wants of the
hoe people, and herein lies the secret of their great
success Those who seek to be popular must study
and be familiar with the wants of the masses, and
prove loyal thereto. To this fact may trace the
grand success in business, well in religious
dertakiDgs, which many Americans have achieved.
Strikingy illustrative of these suggestions is that
great establishment, located at Buffalo, N. Y, and
known the ''Word's Dispensary,' "a most appro-
pirate name, indeed for that vast institution within
whose walls are manufactured remedies which are
in demand in every quarter of the globe, and at
which corps of distinguished physicians and sur
geons under the personal direction of Dr. Pierce are
constantly administering to the needs of thousands of
sufferers everywhere and whose in the treat
ment OF all forms of chronic ailments has become so
well known that there is scarcely hamlet in the
etor says the Herald and Torchlight of Detroit ais
man of the people, writes for them, and to them
tenders his eminent professional services" His ad-
vertisements earnest exhortations. Like the
great revivasts his enthusiasm is multiplied by the
unparalleled success of his enterprise, well by
the efficacy OF his remedies in curing disease The
people beLiere in him and his remedies, because, as
the New York Tribune says, she sympathizes with
them in all their Affections efforts and attanments."
Hence, DR.. Plerce's Golden Medical Discovery is to-
day more largely employed as blood and liver med
icine, and also as a cough remedy, than any other
medical agent in the world. His Favorite Prescrip-
tion he does not recommend as s'cure-al" as is 50
often done by compounders of worthless, humbug
nostrums, but for all diseases and weaknesses pecul
u
cic that it now enjoys great popularity and univer-
sal confidence. DR.. Pierces Pleasant Purgative Pei
lets, scarcely larger than mustard Seed" have
proved so agreeable and reliable cathartic that
they are rapidly taking the place of the large
GUS pills heretofore so much in use; while his Com
pound Extract of Smart-Weed is a favorite remedy
for Collie, Cramps, Summer-complaint, Diarrhoea,
Dysentery, Cholera and Choera-Morbus, and also as
liniment. OF DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and DR..
PierceS Nasal Douche, little need be said as they
are known everywhere as the greatest specifics for
Catarrh and "cold in the head" ever given to the
N 9
Dr. Pierce seems likely to achieve great renown as
an author as he has physician. His COMMON
SENSE MEDICAL ADVISER, book OF about 900
pages which he sells at The unparalleled low price of
$780, has already been sold to the extent of exhaust
ing two editions amounting to forty thousand copies
The secret of Dr. Pierces success, well at that of
the great revivasts and scores of other Americans
who by their genius have advanced step by step from
obscurity to afauence and distinction, consists in
treating the people with consideration, sympathy,
candor and honesty. No man, who hopes to attain
either wealth distinction afford to deal unfair
ly with the world or be Indifferent to the wants and
best interests of humanity.
