money that has been so hardly earned
is paid out for drugs and doctors.
Sickness Is the worst enemy OF the work.
ing man, and the common cause of the
working mans sickness is disease of the
stomach often involving the heart, lungs,

The use of DIR. Pierce's Golden Med

had to lay off quite often two and three days in

belch up gas, and was in awful distress at such
the best doctors in the city but got no help
whatever. By some way or other l happened to
get hold of a vial of your Pellets and I thought
they helped me. It was then I wrote to you fer

use Of your Golden Medical Discovery and
Pleasant Pellets in connection. These medi-
