diseases. Few persons realize how very large

diphtheria and typhoid fever each kill but

record of rs, 000. Right at It's heels is the
record of n 900 for diarrheal diseases
| There is more than one lesson to be learned

Buffalo, \. 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 Association. dis
X. V. Pierce. These family medicines are
| the product of the liie-work of DR.. Pierce, who
is probably the most widely known physician
in America. DIR. Pierce has been in active
practice in Buffalo for over thirty years He
is chief consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, probably the
best known medical institution 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 Discovery. 1t is preventive
and cure for the three classes of diseases that
are shown by Prof Hewes' dial to cause the
death of more human beings annually than
the other serious ailments taken together. 1t
is an unfailing cure for weak lungs. splitting
of blood, obstinate, lingering coughs, bron-
chitis, throat disease and kindred affections
which, if neglected or badly treated, lead up
to consumption. 1t purifes the blood and
drives out disease germs. 1t keeps the lungs
renewed by constantly supplying them with
rich, red, arterial blood of the best quality
1t clears the lungs and enables the blood to
receive its normal amount of life-giviug oxy-
gen. 1t steadies and strengthens the nerves.
1t builds up the whole body and makes solid,
firm, healthy flesh. 1t does not build the
does not raise the weight above the normal
figure.
1t every person who suffers from bronchial
or throat troubles or is threatened with con-
sumption 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, isalso the best preventive
and protection against pneumonia. 1t will not
cure pneumonia after it has gained a foothold,
for the simple reason that ii is an acute disease,
and once started, must run it course. But if
people who have weak lungs narrow chests
and hereditary tendency to lung troubles
would build themselves up by taking Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the
chances of an attack of pneumonia would be
reduced to minimum. The Golden
Medical Discovery" builds up and strength
ems not only the lungs but the whole body,
and gives to the weak constitution greatly
added powers of resistance.
Nearly all diarrheal diseases are due to
neglected disorders of the digestion. When
the stomach is right and performs its proper
functions and the large intestines are right |
and perform their proper functions, there is |
little danger of diarIheal disease. The first |
work of DR.. Perce's Golden Medical Discov- |
cry is to correct all disorders of the digestion
1t gives zest and snap to the appetite. 1t |
makes grown people as hungry as when they |
were boys and girls. 1t facilitates the flow |
of digestive juices. 1t assists the blood to
take up the proper elements of the food that |

out the body. In word, it sees to it that |
the whole process of digestion is properly |
performed and under these circumstances
there is little if any danger. of an attack
from any diarrheal disease.
Thus the people of this country have at
their command simple, harmless, but effec-
tive remedy that may be procured from any
high class medicine dealer, that is thoroughly
reliable protection against the three classes of
diseases that cause the largest proportion of
the annual death rate. The fact that the city
Of Buffalo. n. Y, where this marvellous med
icine is made and sold has death rate of but
twelve in thousand, whereas other large
cities average from twenty to thirty-fye 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
danger of death from the dread dis
eases that take precedence in Prof. Hewes'
dial, have testified to their speedy and per-
manent recovery under the use of this great
These testimonials are open to
investigation by any person who wishes to
see them.
The work of this masterful Discovery
begins at the very cornerstone of life, in the
stomach and nntritiye organism. 1t gives
appetite, nourishment, rich blood. healthy,
solid flesh. A cough is only a symptoms;
there are other things that make the cough;
hey must be got rid of first the cough may
be the last thing to 60 away. DIR. Pierce's
Discovery isn't lung specific;
but it does more than any such specific can
ever do. 1t sweeps out of the blood all the

builds up the delicate tissues and imbues the
entire system with strength and active
