Tho PrIde of His Clnss.

He was bright, handsome boy OF 16,
sunny.tempered, brilliant and engaging,
the delight Of his parents, the Joy OF his
home, and the pride OF his class. But. a
shadow fell across his bright prospects.
1t began with Il trifing cough: soon
came premonitions of consumption, his
strength failed, his checks grew hollow,
and he seemed doomed to an early grave.
Then a friend advised DR.. Pierce,
Golden Medical Discovery. He tried it
and was saved. Health and strength
returned, his cheerful voice rang out
again across the school playground, his
cheeks again grew rosy, his eyes bright.
He is still ''the pride ofhis class and he
graduates this year with highest honors.
