The old story of Prometheus is a
parable. Prometheus was on terms of
intimacy with the gods. From them
he stole fire, and gave it TO men. For
this sin he was bound to the rocks of
Mount Caucasus, and vultures were
set upon him. They only ate his liver.
This grew again as fast as 1T was pecked
away. Are his sufferings to be
imagined? Take modern interpreta-
tion of the parable. There is no cook
ing without fire. In cooking and eat
ing the mischief lies. The stomach is
overtasked, the bowels becoming clogg-
ed, they cannot dispose of the food
that is given them. The impurities
back up on the liver. Then comes the
vultures-the torments of diseased
liver. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is more than equal to the vul
lures of dyspepsia and its kindred dis
ease. There is no more need of suffer
ing from dyspepsia than there is OF
hanging ones self. Sold by all medi
cine dealers the world over.

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshheld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years have been q
sufferer from a scrofulous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After siz
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
.ment q friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rea.ed preju'
dice against all patent medicines, l be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though l am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your SIS. long ago,
l would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $3.50"
This experience is like that Of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.
