A MYSTIFIED WOMAN.
THE WHEELS WOULDN'T co
 ROUND.
M others and Daughters May Profit Dy Her Experience. Some
 thing Wrong.

a child could see there was something wrong Every time the horse started the sparks flew from where the tire touched the stone. That is why the lady got out A crowd gathered and gazed curiOusly while she examined the horse the hargess, the vehicle and the wheel that wouldn't go round. A policeman came forward aud suggested that the horse was balky. A gentleman who belonged to the society with long name said the beast was over worked. and should be pnlarnessed and rubbed down. Another man advised her to back bit and take fresh start. A fourth suggested that if she would drive right on sparks or no sparks, the difficulty would remedy itself; while still another insisted that unless a new tire be put on the wheel, the whole outfit would collapse. These conflicting coupsels increased the confusion of the distressed lady, but they did not make the wheel go round.
 Just then carriage drove up, a gentle man got out and asked what was the mat. ter. One of the bystanders said it was a breakdown, which each of the eleven others gave different explanation as to why the wheel would not go round. The stranger examined the turnout, led the pony forward step, and, as the sparks began living. regasked: Madam. your horse, harness, cart and wheel are all right. The sparks that the tire draws from the curbstones are merely outward symptoms of the inward alment. The real difficulty is p0s with the tire of the wheel, but with its axle or it's box" Just what the E,an did next is not necps. sary to state but ,iu less than ten minutes the entire trouble was ended. He had re- 1 moved the cause instead of temporizing with the effect. As the lady drove on re- jocing someone remarked: "How few people in the world reason down to the root of things, and at the same time carry i'll their heads the know how that make the wheels go round.'
 It is just this lack of reasoning down to the root of things that is to-day causing intense suffering to thousands of women; and for this suffering to a great extent man is to blame.
 Refined. intelligent. educated men. who have spent eight or ten of the best years of their lives in colleges, medical schools and hospitals, cling to the false, child like theory of doctoring the tires. as it were, instead of curing the axle, or it's "hot. box" They direct their attention to where they see the sparks flying, instead of working upon the hidden spot where the real trouble lies. The consequence is. they never acquire the "know how" which enables them to regulate the wheels of life.
 When the sparks of pain fairly fly from womans head, her back, her limbs, or the most important of sensitive organs of her body, it is as senseess to resort to ''iocal applications" pain cures, or stimu- lants, as it is to grease the tire, whip the horse. or drive on regardless of conse- quences. These people try 10 cure symp- toms instead of reasoning to the root of l things and removing the cause Of the dis order. The result is physical patchwork | aud failure instead of success.
 most conspicuous exception to this rule is the man who. nearly thirty years ago, proclaimed that he would not make such mistakes. but would devote himself to reasoning to the root Of disease and to the discovery Of new principle for its treatment Many throusand letters of gratitude from former patients in all parts Of America. have told this physician that he has been successful beyond even his own expectations. This man is Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. r., who has for more than quarter of century been the head of the most complete and successful Health Institute in America-the Inyalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, and whose Golden Medical Discovery" "Favorite Prescription" and "Pellets,n have con. verted thousands of women, in every state m the union and in many foreign lands. from absolute misery 10 phy sical vigor and happiness, and whose Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser has had the great est sale of any medical work ever pub lishrd-amounting to over 1, 200. 900 copies.
 In his research and practice Dr. Pierce proceeded on the common sense principle that the blood could carry life or destruc. ton to every part of the body. That the liver was the ''housekee2er" of the human system. That when the liver becomes disordered the blood Is charged wit, poi. son which is carried through the body and produces such ailments as consumption. heart disea-e. scrofulOus and bronchial disorders, as well as dropsy, rheumatism and ''iemale e9mplaints.n His Golden Medical Discovery" acts especially upon the liver and other excretory organs.
