Few people can understand the feel
ings Of the pugilist as he is being counted
out. He hears the seconds licked off.
He struggles to rise, but struggles in
vain. He has lost the fight.
There are some who are making a
losing fight for life that can appreciate
this; those whose lungs are diseased.
With every tick of the watch, they know
that they are being counted out.
The great question Is how can a quick
rally be made to continue the fight
against diseasef Many who have asked
that question have found satisfactory
answer in the use of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t cures bronchitis,
obstinate, deep-seated coughs, hemor-
rhage, night sweats, emaciation, and
other conditions which if neglected or
unskilfully treated may find a fatal
termination in consumption.

Golden Medical Discovery" writes Mr.. John T.
Reed, OF Jefferson, Jefferson Co., Ark, al was
