Thee is good old English maxim that
teaches us to "belieye every man honest until
we know him to be villain" American Gus
tom seems to have reversed this law and APP
pears to make every man villain until he has
proved himself an honest man. As with people
so with things. Every article placed in our
markets can lay claim to popular favor upon
intrinsic merit and value alone. Continued
popularity, therefore, is proof positive OF in
trinsic excellence. DR.. Pierce's Family Rem
edies are far more popular to-day than ever
before The people have tested them and
know them to be genuine remedies for the
diseases they are recommended 10 cure. The
Golden Medical Discovery and Purgative Pei
lets are the best alteratiy tonic, and cathartic
remedies that can be used in chronic diseases
of the stomach and liver, The worldwide
popularity of the Kav0rite Prescription, as q
never-failing remedy for Female Diseases,
would have alone secured to its discoverer
the fame he has so richly won. Dr. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy, OF which DR.. Pierce is also
proprietor, is recommended by those who
have tested its virtues as a safe and reliable
remedy for catarrh in its worst forms
EXPERIENCE HAS CoNoLUsIvELY SHOWN

HENRY'S CARBOLIC SALvE is more ehicaclous
than any ointment, lotion or embrocatiOn that
