show man the way to 9 long and healthy
life.
Common sense teaches that man should
not over-work or over.worry; that he should
take ample time for his meals, for resting
and for recreation and sleep; that he should
not neglect the little ills of life, because
they are the precursors of serious and fa.4l
n1aladies. Chemistry has enabled men to
make combinations of drugs that were i'm
possible in the days of the alchemists.
Medical science has taught when. how and
why these combinations of drugs should
be used. Dr.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the most valuable of all health
restoring medicines, and the most effective.
It's first work is upon the fountain-head of
Gfe-the stomach. a man who has weak
and impaired stomach and who does not
properly digest his food will soon find that
his blood has become weak and impover-
ished, and that his whole body is inprop-
erly and insufficiently nouTished. This
medicine makes the stomach strong, facil-
itates the flow of digestive juices, restores
the lost appetite, makes assimilation per-
feet, invigorates the liver and purifes and
eiriches the blood. 1t is the great blood
maker, flesh builder and nerve tonic. It
makes men strong in body, active in mind
and cool in judgment.
It does not make habby fat, but solid,
muscular flesh, nerve force and vital en-
ergy. All medicine dealers sell it.
