papers that for twenty-one one-cent
stamps DR.. Pierce would send one of
his Common Sense Medical Advisers
So l sent and got one and began to
read concerning diseases like my own.
After consulting the doctor himself, /
purchased at my nearest drug store a
bottle of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, and bottle of his Pleas
ant Pellets This was in 1897 and now
l am in the enjoyment of good health
which / attribute to DR.. r. V. Pierce.
I am so glad of my health that l can
not say too much. I first return my
sincere thanks to Almighty God and
then to Doctor Pierce"
The above is only specimen case
taken at random from thousands.
WHY IT IS SO.
In view of the foregoing facts it is
easy to explain why the Golden Med
ical Discovery" is the best blood puri-
flying medicine. The stomach supplies
the blood. Draw pure water into a
foul cup and if you drink it you drink
foul water. No matter how pure the
food, If the stomach is foul you will
have foul blood. DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery cleanses the blood
by cleaning the stomach, invigorating
the liver and setting the blood making
glands at work.
Weak lungs are cured on the same
principle. Weak lungs are inseparable
from a weak stomach. A weak stom-
ach does not always mean weak lungs,
but weak lungs always means a weak
stomach. The weak stomach means
Iop Of inia ,trif ha in
capacity of the stomach to digest the
food and distribute the nutriment to
repair the waste and loss of the body.
The whole medical profession recog-
nizes this fact. Their great prescrip-
ton for weak lungs and consumption
is fattening food, condensed and as
similable-which takes the form of cod
liver oil, either in all it's original nasti-
ness, or with its offensiveness modified
in some emulsive preparation. The
theory is sound enough. What the
body needs is nourishment. If you
could nourish the body up to the point
of aggression against disease it would
protect itself. Somehow cod liver oil
and it's preparations never seem to get
as far as the weak lungs. They fail
because it is the stomach that needs
can cure the stomach, invigorate the
liver and set the blood making glands
to manufacturing, and start the cur
rent of rich, red blood, throughout the
system, Nature will take care that it
does it's work of building up the body.
That is the basis of DIR. Pierce's cure
for weak lungs, the condition which
by neglect or bad treatment becomes
consumption.
HOW IT WORKS.
How does the treatment work in
practice? Mr.. Noel w. Orvin. of Lang
ley, Aiken Co., S. c., finds that it
worked first rate in his case. He says:
Il was taken sick in July last year,
and was not able to do any kind of
| work until November. l had beeen
coughing up small hard Jumps for
about a year before / was taken down.
l then called on a DOCTOR who attend
| ed me for two months, and said that
one-half of my left lung was gone,
and advised me to leave my home
| Charleston, S. CD and go TO the coun-
| try, but did not say what sort of dis
ease had. thought it was consump-
| tion, and wrote to you for advice;
TOOK TOUR DottleS OF Dr flerce Iolu-
| en- Medical Discovery which has done
me more good than all the other med
icnes have ever taken"
The doctor didn't say what was the
matter. But Mr. Orvin thought it was
consumption" No wonder he thought
50, when the doctor told him one-half
o, one lung was gone. But it does not
matter what the disease is called, the
fact remains that DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery has cured thousands
Of such cases-cases where there were
night-sweats, hacking cough. emacia-
ton, hectic fush labored breathing
and great weakness. Call the disease
what you please, Golden Medical Dis
coVery" cures ninety-eight out of ev-
| ery hundred such cases. These state
ments have a twofold claim on youl
