himself up in his room for twenty-five
days and twenty-five nights, refusing
to see any n and keeping the cur

only human being he saw during this
time was his servant, whom he rang
for when he felt the need Of food and

cups of coffee. He would throw him.

hausted from lack of sleep. and he re-

fbyw an Elephant Grows.

While we must not overlook the diff
ference between the supply of food in
nature and captivity as we'll as the
equally different conditions of both
food and exercise in either state, 1T is
somewhat interesting to note the in
crease in weight and height Of a young
Indian elephant in captivity, a state to
which 1t was brought when about ff-
teen months old. During nearly a cou-
pie Of years the captive put on nearly
half a ton Ito be more accurate, some
LOO pounds Of avoirdupois) and not
far short of eighteen inches.
The increase in both weight and
height was greatest in the early
months and slower in both cases as
time went on, and the greatest gain in
any single month was ninety pounds
and four inches. Considering the i'm.
mense rations given to elephants in me.
nageries, it may be thought, perhaps
that the results are none too great fol
the cost. Yet to gain ninety pounds In
a single month is prodigious all the
same.

Mrs Olive Stevens, of North Harvey, Cook Co.,
ILL., wI was afflicted with scrofulous tunnor III
the left side of my neck. It was fully as large
as large sized walnut, and so painful that
could get but little sleep at night. I doctored
with several physicians but received no benefit:
The tunnor grew rapidly and became infamed
and my general health became impaired.
vI grew very weak. One physician said
would be in consumption in very short time.
Our home physician said would have to have
the tumor removed, but afterward told my hus-
band that had heart trouble and he would not
dare give me chloroforIn or ether, SO he told me
to be very careful; gave me medicine but did
me no good. I went to Michigan, was there
three months, and while there took DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and used 'Lugols
Solution as directed i'll your pamphlet. While
away gained sixteen pounds, the tumor be-
came smaller, and less painful, and to-day there

vMilk ior babes but meat for men,"
When a man can no more eat mans
food, but exists on milk and cracker
diet he is gone back to babyhood. He
may be big man but he has baby's
stomach.
Success in life depends largely on the
stomach. The nlan with the baby's
stomach finds himself also with a baby's
peevishness and perversity. He has the
baby's exaggerated personal sensitive
ness and jealousy. He is an annoyance
to his friends and all anxiety to his
family. No man can be stronger than
his stomach. A weak stomach argues a
weak man. And vweak" stomach is
the common starting point of most Of
the so-called weaknesses" " which affect
the great organs s. heart, lungs, liver,
kidneys, ETC. How can it be otherwise
when the body and all its organs are
dependent on the stomach for their
nutrition? The uweak" stomach drags
the organs down with it, because being
weak it is unable to convert food into
nutrition, and the organs of the body
being starved, of necessity become weak,
as a Consequence of starvation.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. 1t
makes the weak body strong in the only
way physical strength can be made,
which is by food, properly digested and
assin1ilated. The cures Of vweak" lungs,
oweak" heart, "weak" or sluggish liver,
vweak" kidneys, etc., which follow the
use of vColden Medical Discovery" are
all due to this perfect nutrition Of the
body, the proof of which is the remark
able gain of sound, solid flesh, which
invariably marks the cure.
