FOR the BLOOD. LIVER. LUNGS.

Experience has shown to physicians
that the majority of diseases have their
origin in the arrangement or disease OF
the stomach and other organs OF diges-
ton and nutrition. The stomach is the
receptacle in which food is received and
the laboratory in which it is prepared to
nourish the different parts of the body.
1t prepares brain nourishment in one
way, nerve nourishment IN another,
muscle nourishment in another. When
the stomach is tout of order" these
various forms of nourishment are only
partly or imperfectly prepared, and
nerve, muscle, or brain, as the case
may be, is only partly fed, and the result
is pain, which is Natures protest and
warming. The pain may be in the head
or in the heart, but you must reach 1t
through the stomach or you can't cure
it. That is the philosophy on which DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
prepared. 1t has absolute control OF
the stomach and digestive and nutritive
system. 1t cures diseases in head, heart,
liver, lungs and other organs by curing
the diseased condition Of the stomach
which prevents the proper nourishment
of the various organs and corrupts them
by its own diseased condition, in the
partial nourshment it provides. In like
manner Golden Medical Discovery"
purifes the blood, by purifying the
stomach and other blood-making organs.
It contains no alcO-
hol, or other intoxi-
