A well selected text is half OF the ser
mon. Given a good text and preacher
who is in earnest, and the result IS sure
to be good. The text of this article is
plain simple statement that proves itself
in the readers own mind without argu-
ment. The text is Good health is bet
ter than great riches"
Without health nothing really matters
very much. A hacking cough takes all
the beauty out of landscape or sunset.
Erysipelas or eczema will spoil the enjoy
ment of sprightly conversation, of beau
tiful concert, of wonderful painting.
The biggest bank account i'll the world
won't pay man for his health, but
very small amount OF money will make
him healthy and keep him healthy.
Most all bodily troubles start in the
digestive or respiratory organs. 1t is
here that improper living first makes an
opening for disease The development
differs as constitutions and temperaments
differ The causes are almost identical.
To get at the root of the matter is simple
enough if you start right.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is a medicine for the whole body. 1t
works through the digestive organs on
all the others.
1t cures the first thing it comes to and
after that, the next. 1t puts health in
place of disease in the stomach, and from
the vantage ground thus gained, it
reaches every fiber of the body and drives
: disease before it - indigestion, liver
troubles, kidney complaint, biliousness,
skin and scalp diseases, salt-rheum, letter.
