year or two ago was reading one of
your Memorandum Books, and I de-
cided to try DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and Favorite Prescription
and am entirely cured"
OF all prevalent forms of blood dis
ease, scrofula is the most intractable.
DR.. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery
has a remarkable record of cures of
scrofulous diseases remarkable both in
the number of cures and their variety
as we'll as in the fact that these cures
were effected many times in cases where
all other treatment had proved utterly
Intellectual.
III cured my little girls scrofula with
your Golden Medical Discovery and
Pleasant Pellets" writes Mr. Eli Ash
ford of Raney, Hunt Co., Texas. at
has been four years since then, and
there has not been any return of the
disease"
There is no alcohol in vGolden Med
ical Discovery" and it is entirely free
from opium, cocaine and all other mar
cotics.
Why does a dealer sometimes try to
sell substitute for DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, claiming it is "just
as good ?" Is it for the customers ben
efto 1t can't be- If the two medicines
are equal in merit there's no advantage
to the purchaser in an e5tn exchange.
The medicines are not equal in merit,
and the reason for selling a substitute
is only because the less meritorious med
icine puts little more profit into the
dealers pocket. His gain is the Gus

forms of life. The minute microbe has
