Germs that strike at the vital cen
tiers OF life; germs of foul disease:
deadly as the venom of the snake
and giving no warning of their pres
ence, infest the air we breathe, the
water we drink. Once introduced
into the blood they multiply with
fearful rapidity, absolutely eating III
the very principle of life. Compared
with a disease germ a rattlesnake Is
a gentleman. He is a fair fighter
He tells YOU to look out You have
a chance to fight or run, The dis.
ease germ sneaks upon you. Il
comes while YOU are sleeping Il
gains an entrance to the blood. lr
a few days or even hours it multiplies
to millions until your blood is full O.
its offspring. They go all over the
body seeking a weak spot. The!
don't rattle-they strike.
The blood is the life" and the
germ assaults the blood. The micro
scope reveals the germ of malaria
honeycombing the health by devital-
lzing the red corpuscles. You've
cracked a hazel nut sometime and
found in it nothing but dust and q
little white worm. The meat of the
nut is all eaten UP. The malaria
germ eats out the vital principle ot
the corpuscles in just that way. The
result is collapse. The thought of a
rattlesnake frightens us. Yet the
snake is not one 1.-THE as dangerous
as the little germ, mining, like a
mole, passageway along the veins
and arteries by which it is preparing
to assault the citadel Of life
The condition OF the blood which
indicates the undermining presence
OF disease germs is marked by
languor, feeling of sluggishness
dull headache, inability to make any
effort in business and indifference tc
all forms of pleasure The appetite
is bad, the breath foul. Disturbing
dreams rob the sleep Of all refreshing
influence. There is nervousness and
irritation. The blood seems hot in
the fingers and there are hot flushes
all over the body. The eyes burn
and specks seem to float before them
These symptoms will not all be
present at once, as they belong tc
different stages of disease; nor is il
probable any one person will ex-
periencc them all. But any of such
symptoms indicate the prompt need
OF tonic, a medicine that will put
vitality into the blood, enough tc
give it strength to destroy and cast
out the invading germs.
In such a condition the remark
able efficacy of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery has been proved
over and over again in thousands Of
cases. Acting directly on the organs
OF digestion and nutrition, and upon
the bloodmaking glands, its first in
f1uence is to strengthen the entire
system, clearing away obstruction:
and carrying away efete matter ant
poisonous accumulations. The blooc
is enriched and the germs Of disease
which like all other parasites flourish
best in filth, forsake the blood which
is cleansed of its filthy accumulations
Golden Medical Discovery" work:
with nature. 1t comes to nature
when she is worn out with fighting
just like a timely reinforcement
bringing food and ammunition, ano
with new strength and power nature
battles against disease and over
comes it.
There is no alcohol, whisky OF
other stimulant in DIR. Pierce's Col
den Medical Discovery. That is (
point to bear in mind when consider
ing the value of a tonic medicine
Most so-called tonics are loaded will
alcohol They only brace up for tht
time, reacting injuriously upon thu
diseased system. Alcohol acts lik,
spur to a horse. The Discovery
acts like good sound meal. Th'
meal makes more horse The spu
makes more speed but less hors'
with every step. Alcohol may nak'
more speed for a time, but it make
less man, because it puts nothing
into the body to replace the strength
taken out of it in response to tn,
spur Golden Medical Discovery
makes more man with every dose
