The special bent of the American mind seems
to be that of Old Si--to investigate. We began
to investigate in 1860 and we have been investi-
eating ever since. We investigated the South
pretty thoroughly then, and now they have
caught the spirit and propose to investigate us.
Investigation, that is thoroughly bipartisan,
unprecedented investigation, always leads to one
excellent rcsult-thc good, the true, is yindicat-
ed, and imposturcs are exposed. This Is pre-
ciScy the reason why DR.. X. V. Pierce invites
aud urges the public to investigate the remedial
powers Of his Family Remedies. He knows that
the trial will yndicatc all his claims for them
and all that has been written Of them by grateful
patients who have been restored to health by
their use. The Golden Medical Discovery and
Pleasant Purgative Pellets are the achnowlGdg
ed standard remedies of the age Tor all diseases
of the STOMACH and liver.

time between his school and wholesale education

his "knucklng" propensities. After being fed
for few days he was shipped from town with {
