American Genius. Moody and Sankey.
The great revivalists, Messrs. Moody and
Sankey, who electrified staid old England
with their eloquence and enthusiasm, are
fair samples of American genius. Spring
ing from among the common people, their
sympathies are alive to the wants of the
,rhole 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 there
to. To this fact we may trace the grand sue
cess in business, as well as in religious I'M
dertakings, which many Americans have
achieved. Strikingly illustrative of these
suggestions is that great establishment, To-
Gated at Buffalo, N. Y, and known as the
"World's Dispensary'-a most appropriate
name, indeed, for that vast institution, with
in whose walls are manufactured remedies
which are in demand in every quarter of the
globe, and at which a corps of distinguished
physicians and surgeons, under the personal
direction of Dr. Pierce, are constantly ad-
ministering to the needs of thousands Of
sufferers everywhere, and whose success in
the treatment of all forms of chronic all
ments has become SO well known that there
is scarcely a hamlet in the land in which his
name is not familiar. Its proprietor, says
the Herald and Torchlight, Of Detroit, " is a
man of the people, writes for them, and to
them tenders his eminent professional serv-
ices" His advertisements are earnest ex-
hortations. Like the great revivalists, his
enthusiasm is multiplied by the unparalleled
success of his enterprise, as well as by the
efficacy of his remedies in curing disease.
The people bel,ere in him and his remedies, be-
sympathizes with them in all their
Affections, efforts and attachments"
Hence, DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is to-day more largely EN- s
also as cough remedy, than any other
remedial agent in the world. His Favorite
Prescription he does not recommend as a
"cure-all," as is SO often done by COM
e<,f hun hing I'M
but for all diseases and weaknesses peculiar
to women it has proved itself SO much of a
specific that it now enjoys great popularity
and universal confidence. DIR. Pierce's Pleas
ant Purgativc Pellets, scarcely larger than
mustard seed" have proved SO agreeable
and reliable as a cathartic that they are rap
| idly taking the place of the large, nauseous
| pills heretofore SO much in use; while his
| vorite remedy for Collie, Cramps. Summer
complaint, DiarrhHa, Dysentery, Cholera
and Cholera Morbus, and also as Imminent.
| OF DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and DIR.
| Pierce's Nasal Douche little need be said
as they are known everywhere as the great
| est specifics for Catarrh and "cold in the
head ever given to the public. And be-
sides this large measure OF success, Dr.
Pierce seems likely to achieve as great re-
nown as an author as he has as physician.
His COMMON SENSE MEDICAL ADVISER, a
| book of about 800 pages, which he sells at
the unparalleled low price of $1.5O, has al
ready been sold to the extent of exhausting
| two editions amounting to forty thousand
copies. The secret of DIR. Pierce's success,
as well as that of the great revivalists, and
| scores of other Americans who by their
genius have advanced step by step from OBJ
| security to aIfiuence and distinction, consists
in treating the people with consideration,
| sympathy, candor and honesty. No man,
| who hopes to attain either wealth or dis
tinction, can afford to deal unfairly with the
world or be Indifferent to the wants and best
| interests of humanity.
