The man with consumption used to be considered just as good as dead. His doc tors condemned him to death just as surely as if he had been convicted of murder and must die on the scaffold at dawn.
 All that has been changed. There is now no reason for the co1lsumptive to despair. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery will cure eS per cent of all cases of consumption. That is startling state. ment, but true one. Consumption is fed by impure blood. It is an accumulation of impurities in the lungs. If the blood is made pure and filled with the purify ing properties of the Discovery" there is nothing to replace the tuberculous mat ter that IS coughed up and expectorated. Gradually the lungs become free and clear, the lung lining becomes sound and healthy, and the disease is conquered. Then begins the process of flesh building and soon the hollow cheeks are full, the step is firm and elastic, and health blooms in every feature and in every action.
