takes the form of cod liver oil, either
in all its original nastiness, or with
its offensiveness mo lif.ed in some
el1ulsive preparation. The theory is
sound enough. What the body needs
is nourishment. If you could nouT-

erosion against disease il would pro-

gel as far as the weak lungs. They
fail because it is the stomach that
needs healing. Let the lungs alone.
II you can cure the stomach invigor-
ate the liver and set the blood-nlak-
ing glands to manufacturing. and
start the current of rich, red blood
throughout the system, Nature will
take care that it does its work of
building up the body. That is the
basis of DR.. Pierce's cure for weak
lungs, the condition which by neglect
or bad treatment becomes consump-
ton.
HOW IT WORKS
How does the treatment work in
practice? Mr.. Noel w. Orvin, of
Langley, 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. | had been
coughing up small hard Jumps for
about year before | was taken
down. l then called on a doctor,
who attended me for two months,
and said that one-half Of my left lung
was gone, and advised me to leave
nv home Charleston, S. c. and
go to the country, but did not say
what sort of disease had. | thought
it was consumption, and wrote to
YOU for advice; | took four bottles
of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery, which has done me more
good than all the other medicines l
have ever taken.'
The doctor didn't say what was the
matter. But Mr. Orvin Thought it
was consumption" No wonder he
thought SO, when the doctor told him
one-half of 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, emaciation, hectic
flush, labored breathing and great
weakness. Call the disease what you
please, Golden Medical Discovery"
cures ninety-eight out Of every hun
dred such cases. These statements
have a twofold claim on your atten-
ton if YOU are a sufferer from weak
stomach, weak lungs, stubborn ling
ering cough, bronchitis, bleeding
lungs, or any of these kindred forms
OF disease which, when neglected or
improperly treated, lead to con-
sumption.

been able to properly feed the organs
dependent upon it. They are starv-
ing, they are weak, and they show
their weakness in the aches and pains
that aflict the various parts of the
body. What will set the stomach
right? There is one remedy practi-
cally infallible in its results, and that
one remedy is DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t cures because
it is made to cure just the conditions
OF the stomach which give rise to
disease.
A COMMON SENSE VIEW
II so many diseases begin in the
stomach and nutritive system, why
should not some one remedy be COM
pounded. which by healing the stom-
ach would necessarily cure the dis
eases of the organs dependent on it:
This was the great question which
DR. R. Y. Pierce set himself to an
swer. Then followed a period of
profound study OF the value of altera-
tive and tonic medicines.

WILL NOT INFBRIATE.

There is one important feature
about Golden Medical Discovery
which cannot be too strongly empha-
sized. 1t contains no alcohol, or
whisky, no opium or narcotics,
neither sugar nor syrup, which SO
often disagree with the weak dyspep-
tic stomach. Without any of these
things it preserves its medicinal
qualities perfectly and in any climate
1t does not create a craving for in
furious sti1nulants or narcotics.

One Of the results Of the late war be-

will most likely be the abolition OF
that form of naval piracy which finds
Its justification in prize courts. In the

the principle of looting conquered ter
ritory has long since been abandoned.
Yet, through that strange contradiction
which has not reformed the navy in
the same ratio in which the army has
been brought under civilizing infiu-

sells carrying contraband goods fall a
prey, but q valuation of the warships
destroyed is bound to go to officers and
sailors Of the ships engaged in the
fight.

The race problem, in dealing with
Puerto Rico, is quite certain to be a
difficult one; but the religious problem
will be still more perplexing. The in
habitants Of the island are-substan-
TALLY without exception-Roman Cath
olics. Although there are millions of
Americans of the same faith, the new
citizens of our country will naturally
regard us as a Protestant people. They
are accustomed to religion establish
ed by lew and supported by the state.
There will be nothing of the sort here
after. The Puerto Ricans will have
perfect freedom in religion, but they
must support their own institutions,
or rely upon Roman Catholics here and
In other countries to provide the funds.
