GENERAL. DEBILITY
Is a very common and natural result OF
dyspepsia or stomach "trouble." When
the stomach and digestive and nutritive
tracts are diseased, the food eaten is not
assinilated, as a result the body loses
nutrition and this loss of nutrition is
marked in the wasting Of flesh and loss
of strength.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry cures diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
It enables the perfect digestion and as.
siniilation of food, so that the strength
is restored by the only means known to
nature-by the nutrition derived from
food The whole body feels and shows
the change. The lost flesh is regained,
the lost strength recovered, and there 10
new vitality and vigor.
Sick men or women are invited to con-
suit DIR. Pierce, by letter, free, and so

experience and great success in the treat
Iuent and cure of disease. This offer OF

The consequence is indigestion, stomach
"trouble," loss of vital force and general
debility, and the American people be-
coming a nation of "dyspeptics."
A NATIONAL. PERIL.
If it be true and 1t is that no man is
stronger than his stomach, dyspepsia,
the national disease, is a national danger.
Unchecked and uncured it menaccs the
strength of nation which is made up
of units, large percentage of whom are
dyspeptics and therefore weak.
Fortunately the dyspeptic does not
need to remain dyspeptic. Dr. Pierce's

sia and other forms of stomach trouble
perfectly and permanently. II enables
the building up of the body in the only
way possible, by the assimilation of nutri-
ton derived from perfectly digested food.
