ailments disappear entirely and alto
gether when the stomach has been re-
stored to health by the use of Col
den Medical Discovery" 1t is no use
to treat the heart or the. head, the
lungs or the liver, for disease which
originating in the stomach is being fed
from the stomach through the blood,
with every pulse beat. It's easy to
understand this. Suppose a pure
stream flowing through a fair farm
land and providing the drinking sup
ply of the farmer and his family.
Some day the water is found to be foul.
Going up the stream one of the boys
finds a hog dead in the brook. Is it
any use to attempt to purify that
water, to heal it or cleanse it, while
that corruption remains in the stream?
Not a bit of it. But take that car
rion out of the stream and the water
does not need any healing or cleaning.
1t heals itself. The cause Of the foul
ness is removed. and the effect disap-
pears. When it is diseased
THE STOMACH IS A SEPULCHRE
full of uncIeanness. What makes the
head dizzy? The foul gases generated
from the decaying and putrescent mat
ter in that sepulchre Of the stomach
where food is merely buried. What
hurts the heart, the lungs, the liver?
The poisons which are being developed
from the foul food which the organs of
digestion and nutrition cannot convert
into nourishment. These poisons are
mixed with the blood which is made in
the stomach and their influences is felt
first and most in the weaker organs.
Put the stomach and its allied organs
into proper condition, the food which
is eaten is properly prepared in the
stomach, perfectly distributed to the
several organs and the result Is natural
health.
Mrs. A. Flackus, Of Dairy, klamath
county, Oregon, writes: with pleas
ure J write to you to let you know the
great benefit l have received from
your medicines and self-treatment at
home. When you kindly advised me
to take your Golden Medical Discov-
cry for my trouble, ] followed your ad-
vice as closely as 1 could and received
great benefits. For over a year l suf-
fered with pains in stomach, constipa-
ton and indigestion. | had no appe-
tite at all, and could not sleep. So 1t
went on for months, till one day all
at once | got dizzy, my heart seemed
to beat as fast as it could, and / felt
like fainting all the time. My heart
beat 120 or I25 times in one minute.
We went to the doctor; he gave me
medicine, but it did not make my
trouble any better. 1 thought l had to
die: every night when l went to bed
feared | would not be alive in the
morning. So / wrote to DR.. Pierce and
he gave me his advice. | bought six
bottles Of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery, and four vials of Pleasant
Pellets At first l thought the medi-
cine did me no good, but l kept on TAX
ing the medicines as you advised, and
when / had taken five bottles OF the
medicine / was so well that it seemed
l did not need any more, but still took
the sixth bottle. l can say | was then
perfectly well. The headaches, pains
in stomach, heart trouble and all left
me. / have had a good appetite ever
since and can sleep well and do all
my work"

Free medical advice" is one of the
favorite offers of certain advertisers
who cannot give what they offer, be-
cause medical advice cannot be given
without medical knowledge and train

write TO woman Is the phrase
sometimes used by those who offer
