NATURAL SELECrION.--Inv, stigat.
ors OF natural science have demonstrated
beyond controversy that throughout the
animal kingdom the survival of the 1T
test" Is the only law that vouchsafes
thrift and perpetuity. Does not the same
principle govern the commercial pros
perity of man? An inferior cannot SUI
persede a superior article. BY reason OF
superior merit, DR.. Pierce's Standard
Medicines have outrivalled all Others.
Their sale in the United States alone ex-
ceeds one million dollars per annum
while the amount exported foots up to
several hundred thousand more. No
business could grow to such gigantic pro-
portions and rest upon any other basis
than tha of merit.
