Patent medicines differ
One has reasonableness, an
other has not. One has repu-
tation-another has not. One
has confidence, born of sue
cess = another has only
"hopes."
Don't take it for granted
that all patent medicines are
alike. They are not.
Let the years of uninter-
rupted success and the tens
of thousands of cured and
happy men and women, place
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription
on the side of the comparison
they belong.
And there isn't a state or
territory, no nor hardly a
country in the world, whether
its people realize it or not,
but have men and women
in them that're happier be-
cause of their discovery and
their effects.
Think of this in health.
Think of it in sickness. And
then think whether you can
afford to make the trial if
the makers can afford to take
the risk to give your money
!. back as they do if they do
not benefit or cure you.

The majority of well-read phys

Ition is a germ disease. In other
words, instead of being in the con-

merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do

little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive Just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
frightful rapidity. Then German
Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills
them, expells them, heals the places
