FACTS ARE STUBBORN THINGS.


There is no getting past a fact You
stands challenging doubt and dental, and
inviting investigation The fact that
Golden Medical Discovery" does cure
bronchitis, does cure hemorrhages of the
lungs, does cure obstinate, lingering
coughs, does build up the emaciated and
enfeebled body into health, is a fact as
undeniable as that the sun rises and sets.
The proof does not rest on single cure,
but on thousands of cures. Suppose a
man lost on the traclSless prairie stumbles
suddenly upon a path, tramped hard by
the passage of thousands of feet VIII
he SIT down and say / am lost? Or will
he take the one chance of help that opens
to him and follow the trail which points
to safety? Every time he will strike into
the trail and go on, staggering and stum-
ling, to where he may find the help of hui
man hands, the succor of human hearts.
There is such a beaten trail to health
marked for the man who is coughing his
life away. 1t has been trodden by thou
sands who had given themselves up for
lost, and who have found in it a way to
health and long life. Why, then, are men
willing to accept the theory that they
are lost to health and happiness? Why
do they accept a horrible doom with
scarcely a struggle? Because
THEY HAVE BEEN ROBBED
Of hope by superstition The priests of
this superstition, the medical men, have
SAID uOlnlnR CdIl DC uOHt lOI YOU ana
they accept the dictum and sit down and
await their fate. The general attitude Of
the average medical practitioner toward
the sufferer from lung disease is cruel
to the extreme. Having no help to offer
himself, he denies that there is any help
to be found. He pooh poohs a reliable
remedy and says don't waste your
money, or as MI McCawley's physician
may as well take so much water"
Yet Mr.. McCawley took Golden Medi-
cal Discovery and was cured. He saw
a testimonial from a man who had been
his own. The doctors couldn't help him;
they said it was "a case Of die anyway"
as Mr.. McCawley looked at it. But he
was a cautious man. He wrote to the
man who claimed to have been cured by
DR.. Pierce's medicine before he wrote to
DIR. Pierce. That was business.
These testimonials. are genuine and hon
est and one fact will be noted9in almost
all of them-that the use Of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery was not begun
until the doctors failed to help or pro-
the doom of DEATH
The one vital question to you IL you
are sick will be
WHAT IS MY CHANCE?
Can be cured? Look at the facts Read
over the testimonials given below, and
then answer that question in the light
Of common sense. These people who We're
blood just like your blood. That's the
main point to remember The symptoms
may vary, but the body is the same al
ways, and the work Of healing to be done
In that body is the same in every case
At the least your "chance" of cure is as
good as any of those whose testimonials
have been given. But there's a brighter
word Of encouragement for you yet, in
the fact that DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery has cured 98 per cent of ali who
have given it fair and faithful trial
Now read these testimonials until you get
the facts by heart:
