Ninety-EIght Per Cent.

There is a fascination about big pro-
fits to business man. But the con-
servative and cautious trader prefers
to have the lesser per cent. OF interest
and the larger per cent. of safety in his
investments. There is no business man
who would not consider it sound
proposition to invest in an enterprise
in which absolute loss was impossible
and which offered ninety-eight chances
in a hundred of rich profit. The
statistics Of cures effected by DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
show that ninety eight per cent of
cases Of weak lungs can be absolutely
cured. Almost If not all forms of phys
ical weakness may be traced to starva-
tion. Starvation saps the strength.
The body is just as much starved when
the stomach cannot extract nutrition
from the food itreceives as when there
is no food. Weak lungs bronchial
affections, obstinate coughs. call for
nourishment. Golden Medical Dis
covery supplies that nourishment in
its most condensed and assimilable
form. 1t makes weak lungs strong,
by strengthening the stomach and Or
gans Of digestion which digest and dis
tribute the food, and by increasing the
supply of pure blood.
