When a man breaks down with that
dread disease, consumption, and recognizes
his condition, he starts out to fish for
health. He tries this thing and that thing.
He consults this doctor and that doctor.
He INDUCES in all kinds Of absurd athletic
exercises. He tries first one climate and
then another He tries the rest cure and
the work cure. He grows steadily worse.
That is the story of most consumptives.
Finally, when the consumptive dies, the
doctor shrugs his shoulders and pronounces
consumption incurable. A thirty years
test of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery has demonstrated that it cures %
per cent. Of all cases of consumption, IL

before the lungs are too far wasted. In
consumptive there is a weaker spot than
even the lungs. That spot is the stomach.
A consumptive never really begins TO die
until his stomach gives out The Golden
Medical Discovery" not only braces up
the stomach, but acts directly on the
lungs, healing them and driving out all
impurities. Honest medicine dealers will
not urge you to take an inferior substitute.
"I had very bad cough, also night-sweats
and was almost in my grave with consumption" /"
writes Mrs. Clara A. Mcintyre, Box III, Ash
land, Middlesex Co, Mass. " A friend of mine
who had died with consumption came TO me in
a dream and told me to take DR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, and, thank the Lord, did
so. BY the time I had taken half Of the first

taken three bottles. That was all needed.

Whenever constipation is one of the COM
plicating causes of disease, the most perfect
remedy is DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets,
which are always effective, yet absolutely
mild and harmless. There never was any
remedy invented which can take their
