Why Advertise

People sometimes ask why does DR. r. ".
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, spend SO much
money in advertising his. family medicines,
which ure SO well known and surpass all other
remedies in popularity and sale. 1t is we'll
known that A. Il Stewart considered II good
policy, aud undoubtedly it paid him, to spend
many hundred thousand dollars in ndvertis
sng his goods. yet nobody questioned the ex-
celcnce of his merchandise. The grand
secret of success lies in Offering only goods
which possess merit to sustain themselves,
and then through liberal end persistent ad-
vertising making the people thoroughly ac-
quainted with their good qualities. Men do
not succeed in amassing great fortunes. es-
tablishing thriving and permanent business,
and founding substantial institutions like DIR.
Pierce's Grand Invaids' Hotel at Buffalo,
which costs over TWO hundred thousand doll
lars, unless their business be legitimate, their
gunds meritorious, and their services which
they render the people genuine aud valuable.
DR. Pierce does not attempt to humbue you
by telling you that his Golden Medical Dis
covery will cure all diseases. He says, 'if
your lungs are half wastsd by consumption,
my Discovery will not cure you, yet as .
remedy for severe coughs, and all durable
bronchial, throat aud lung affections, l be-
lieve it to be unsurpassed as remedy" The
people have confidence in his medicines be.
cause he does rot over recommend them, and
when tried they give satisfaction. His Med>
ical Adviser, a book of over nine hundred
pages, illustrated by two hundred and eighty
two engravings and bound in cloth and gilt,
is offered to the people at so moderate \
price (sl.50. post-paid), that it is no wonder
that almost one hundred thousand have al
ready been sold. His memorandum books
are on every druggists counter for free dis
tributon.
