The odds are in favor of the germs, if our
liver is inactive and our blood impure.
What is needed most is an increase in our
germ-fghting strength. To do this success
fully you need to put on healthy flesh, rouse
the liver to vigorous action, so it will throw
off these germs, and purify the blood so that
there will be no weak spot" nor soil for
germ-growth.
We claim for DR.. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery, that it does all this in a way pecu-
liar to itself. 1t is the development of gen.
erations of medical thought-it has stood the
test of quarter of a century of cures.
That is why the makers can guarantee it.
In every trouble caused by torpid liver or
impure blood, if the Discovery fails to
benefit or cure, your money is refunded.
