The brusque and fussy i'm
pulse of these days of false
impression would rate down
all as worthless because one
is unworthy.
As if there were no notes
in sunbealns
Or comets among stars
Or cataracts in peaceful
rivers!
Because one remedy pro-
fesses to do what it never
was adapted to do, are all
remedies worthless?
Because one doctor lets his
patient die, are all humbugs?
1t requires a fine eye and
a finer brain to discriminate
to draw the differential line.
They say" that DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton have cured thousands.
"They say" for a weak sys-
tenn there's nothing better than
the Discovery" and that the
Favorite Prescription is the
hope Of debilitated, feeble
women who need a restora-

And here's the proof
Try one or both. If they
