bold initiative at every point. From
Manila to Santiago the cry was con-
stantly heard: "On! On to the At
tack" until the foolish Spanards,
rudely awakened from their scornful,
incredulous dream, found themselves
threatened in their own peninsula, and
were, at last, forced to petition for
mercy.
To carry the war into Africa" to
beard the lion in his den," to strike
the enemy in his own chosen domain
this is the surprising and audacious
policy which throughout all history
has ever characterized the boldest and
most successful nations.
THE WORDS OF A GREAT GEN
ERAL.
In the unhappy days of the early
Sixties" when timorous Union men
were anxiously inquiring: How shall
Washington be defended?" CIR t
gave the answer that told in two VIC Dis
the conquering metal of which he was
moulded: Attack Richmond
Not to defend but to attack is the
secret of success in every realm of hu-
man achievement. The great business
man does not wait for opposition, he
opens the attack and fires the first gun;
the great lawyer so marshals his evil
dence that the other side shall be put
upon the defensive; the great physician
looks upon disease as an enemy that
must be searched out and overwhelmed
in its chosen stronghold, and routed as
thoroughly and completely as a fort
ressed army.
No physician of the present century
believes more sincerely in this splendid
and forceful conception of the cam
paigp against disease than DR.. r. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo. N. Y. From his
earliest practice he has held to the
opinion that this was the only true and
radical standpoint from which physical
ailments could be successfully combat
ed and ultimately overcome.
THE ELEMENT THAT MAKES Sue
CESS. Z
Not to temporiZe with disease nor
wait for it to develope it's attack: not
to skirmish merely with its outposts;
not to be content with a bare allevia-
tion of it's superficial aspects but to
strike deep and quickly at its hidden
sources and drive it radically and un-
sparingly from the secret corners of
the physical constitution-this has been
the unvarying purpose of DIR. Pierce's
long and successful career in the medi-
cal profession; this is the element that
has given his wonderful Golden Medi-
cal Discovery" it's unmatched potency
in curing what had hitherto been con-
sdered almost hopeless diseases.
This grand Discovery" attacks with
supreme Alternative power the inner
most channels of the human nutritive
system; gives tonic vigor to the diges-
tive processes; cleanses and strength
ems the liver; promotes the perfect fill
teration of morbid bilious products;
| and enables the blood-making glands
to produce that abundance of highly
vitalized blood which sweeps away
bacterial poisons from every part OF
the organism; reconstructs healthy tis-
| sue and nerve-fiber; and recreates or
| ganic power and normal energy.
1t pursues disease into the ultimate
| sources of nutrition, where almost all
diseases have their origin and primal
inception. 1t combats the very begin
nings of disease more strongly and Wig.
orously than all the conventional
| stereotyped remedies of any routine
| practitioner; 1t rebuilds and rehabili.
tates permanent health in cases which
no other medicine can possibly effect
1t does what no other medicine and nc
other treatment has ever been able tc
| accomplish.
THE TRUE FOUNDATION.
1t is the product of deep study, thor.
