story. The wide spaces on the dial be-
tween the lower and upper indicators
should make one realize the fatality of
those diseases as never before, and be
more careful"
It will be noted on the dial that where
diphtheris and typhoid fever each kill
but 1900 people, consumption alone
kills 102,9o0 people Next to consumption
in the dread race Of death stands pneu-
monia, with record of $4,000. Right at
its heels Is the record Of 1900 for
diarrheal diseases.
There is more than one lesson to be
learned from these figures and from this
dial. And there are other facts to be
taken into consideration with them. For
instance the city Of Buffalo, N. Y, is
said to have the smallest death rate OF
any city in the world-but twelve in
every one thousand. In other large
cities the death rate runs from twenty to
thirty-fve in each thousand.
1t is significant in this connection that
Buffalo, n. Y, is the headquarters of
The Worlds Dispensary Medical Asso-
citation, dispensers of the famous family
medicines OF Dr.. r. V. Pierce. These
family medicines are the product Of the
nfe-wofk OF Dr.. Pierce, who Is probably
the most widely known physician in
America DR.. Pierce has been in active
practice IN Buffalo for over thirty years.
He Is chief consulting physician to the
Invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute
nha1 D1zu lyr
tuition in the United States.
Among the family medicines that owe
their origin to DR.. Pierce, one that has
attained worldwide fame is known
as DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry. II Is q preventive and cure for the
three classes Of diseases that are shown
by Prof. Hewcs' dial to cause the death
OF more human beings annually than
the other serious ailments taken to-
gether. 1t is an unfailing cure for weak
lungs, splitting of blood, obstinate, lin
gering coughs. bronchitis, throat disease
and kindred affections which if neglect
ed OF badly treated. lead up to con-
sumption. 1t purifies the blood and
drives out disease germs. It keeps the
lungs renewed by constantly supplying
them with rich, red arterial blood OF
the best quality. It clears the lungs
and enables the blood TO receive IT'S nor
nal amount Of life-giving oxygen. 1t
steadies ana strengthens the nerves. 1t
builds up the whole body and make.
solid, firm, healthy flesh It does not
build the fiabby, unhealthy flesh of cor
pulency and IT does not raise the weight
above the normal figure.
II every person who suffers from bron-
chlal or throat troubles or is threatened
with consumption would resort to this
remedy, the number of deaths credited
TO consumption on Prof. Hewes' dial
would be enormously reduced.
This great remedy, by its action
through the blood upon the lungs. is
also the best preventive and protection
against pneumonia. 1t will not cure
pneumonia after IL has gained foot
hold, for the simple reason that it is an
acute disease, and once started, must
run its course. But If people who have
weak lungs. narrow chests and a hered-
itary tendency TO lung troubles would
build themselves up by taking DR..
Il "
chances Of an attack of pneumonia
would be reduced to a minimum The
Golden Medical Discovery builds up
and strengthens not only the lungs but
the whole body. and gives 10 the weak
constitution greatly added powers of
resistance
Nearly ali diarrheal diseases are due
TO neglected disorders OF the digestion.
When the stomach is right and performs
its proper functions, and the large in
testines are right and perform their
proper functions. there is little danger
Of diarrheal disease. The first work
of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is to correct ell disorders OF the di-
gestion. II gives zest and snap to the
appetite. II makes grown people as
hungry as when they were boys and
girls. II facilitates the flow Of digestive
3uices. Il assists the blood TO take up
the proper elements OF the food that so
20 build new and healthy tissues
throughout the body. In a word, il
sees 10 it that the whole process OF d.
gestlon is properly performed, and un-
der these circumstances, there is little
II any danger Of an attack from any
diarrheal disease.
Thus the people OF this country have
at their command simple. harmless,
but effective remedy that may be pro
cured from any high class medicine
dealer, that is a thoroughly reliable pro-
lection against the three classes Of dis |
eases that cause the largest proportion
Of the annual death rate. The fact thst
the city Of Buffalo. y. Y. where this
marvellous medicine is made and sold, !
has a death rate Of but twelve in a
thousand, whereas other large cities |
average from twenty to thirty-five in a |
thousand, is most significant
The merits Of Dr. Pierce's Golden |
Medical Discovery are not based upon
mere assertions. Thousands all over the |
country who were in imminent danger !.
Of death from the dread diseases that !
