very principle of life. Compared with
a disease germ rattlesnake is a gentle
man. He is a fair fighter. He tells you
to look out. You have a chance to fight
or run. The disease germ sneaks upon
you. 1t comes while you are sleeping.
1t gains an entrance to the blood. In 4
few days or even hours it multiplies TO
millions until your blood is full of its
offspring They go all over the body
seeking a weak spot. They don't rattle
they strike.
1.-THE blood is the life,'' and the germ
assaults the blood. The microscope re-
veals the germ of malaria, honeycomb-
ing the health by devitalizing the red
corpuscles You've cracked d hazel nut
some time and found in it nothing but
dust and n little white worm. The meat
of the nut is all eaten up. The malaria
germ eats out the vital principle of the
corpuscles in just that way. The result
is collapse. The thought of a rattle
snake frightens US. Yet the snake is
not one 1.-THE as dangerous as the little
germ, mining, like a mole, 4 passage
way along the veins and arteries by
which it is preparing to assault the cita-
del of life.
The condition of the blood which indi-
ease germs is marked by languor, a feel
ing of sluggishness, duh headache, ina
bility to make any effort in business and
Indifference to all forms of pleasure.
The appetite is bad, the breath foul.
Disturbing dreams rob the sleep of all
refreshing influence. There is nervous
ness and irritation. The blood seems
hot in the fingers and there are not
fushes all over the body. The eyes

them. These symptoms will not all be
present at once, as they belong to diff
ferent stages of disease; nor is It prob
able any one person will experience them
all. But any of such symptoms indicate
the prompt need of a tonic, a medicine
that will put vitality into the blood,
enough to give it strength to destroy
and cast out the invading germs
In such a condition the remarkable ef-
ficacy of DR.. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery has been proved over and over
again in thousands Of cases. Acting ui-
rectly- on the organs of digestion and nu-
triton, and upon the biood-making
glands, its first influence is to strengthen
the entire system, clearing away obstruc-
tions and carrying away effete matter
and poisonous accumulations. The blood
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 Accommodations.
Golden Medical Discovery works with
nature. II comes to nature when SIZE
is worn out with fighting, just like
timely reinforcement bringing food and
ammunition, and with new strength and
power nature battles against disease and
oyercomes ii.
There is no alcohol, whisky or other
stimulant in DR.. Pierce's Golden Msdi-
cal Discovery. That is point to bear in
mind when considering the value of
tonic medicine. Most so-called tonics
are loaded with alcohol. They only brace
up for the time, reacting inJuriously
upon the diseased system. Alcohol acts
like a spur to q horse. The Discovery
acts like a good sound meal. The meal
makes more horse. The spur makes
more speed but less horse with every
step. Alcohol may make more speed for
q time, but it makes less man, because
it puts nothing into the body to replace
the strength taken out of it in response
TO the spur. Golden Medical Discov-
cry makes more man with every dose,
and more man means a real gain in
strength.
The remarkable action of this REM
edy. the quickness with which it
searches out disease, is marked in .he
following letter:
81 was troubled with malarial fever and
was under doctors care for quite
time" writes Mr.. ]. f. Kidd, of Parm-
leysville, Wayne Co, Ky They had al
most given me up and my suffering was
very great. My pulse was weak, breath
short, and / had severe pains in back,
head and legs. Had palpitation of heart,
and from June l, 1885, to May !, 1898, 1
was not able to do a days work. l pur-
chased five bottles of DR.. r. V. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, and before
had finished taking the first two bottles
] was very much better of my disease
of three years standing. 1 continued
taking the medicine, and by the time the
fifth bottle was gone l was well man.
! can cheerfully recommend DR.. Pierces
Golden Medical Discovery TO any similar
sufferer"
Such testimony as this is the most prac-
teal and convincing argument which can
be advanced for the healing and invigor-
ating power Of the Golden Medical Dis
eovery." Thousands upon thousands have
used il and IS per cent of these have
found a cure even when vitality had
fallen TO a low ebb, and distressing
cough, bleeding al the lungs, and other
serious symptoms had appeared. Women
as we'll as men have tested this medicine
and the following letter is typical of tens
Of thousands received from women CRATE

for three years, with cold chils, palpi-
tation Of heart, shortness of breath, and
low spirits writes Mrs. A. C. Jones, of
Walterboro, Colleton County. S. c. II

would soon die. Had peculiar roaring
