No longer mourn for me when I am
dead
Than you shall hear the surly,
sullen bell
Give warning to the world that I
am fed
From this vile world, with vilest
worms to dwell;
Nay, if you read this line remember
not
The hand that writ it; for I love
you so,
That 1 in your sweet thoughts would
be forgot,
If thinking on me then should
make you woe.
o: if q say, you look upon this
verse
When I perhaps compounded I'M
with clay,
Do not so much as my poor name
~rehearse,
But let your love even with my
life decay;
Lest the wise world should look into
your moan,
And mock you with me after / am
gone.

There was a hunted look in the
statesman's eye.
With uncomfortable agitation, he
packed his valise and kissed his wife
good-by.
"What is the trouble, dear?''
asked his anxious wife. "Where
are you going?"
"To the mountains, the deserts
thejungle-anywhere, Unanswered
in~coherently. "There is a delega
ton coming to the house within al
hour to tell me I've got to run TO
vice p~resident!"
And with a wild cry he fed.

January last (dx months ago. and called in our physician and he
gave me medicine but I grew worse. He said l had dyspepsia in
its worst form; I decided to try your medicine and began to i'm
prove. I used five bottles, two of the Golden Medical D1scov-
cry and three of Favorite Prescription, and now am doing my
own house work. A number of my lady friends also r using
Dr.. Pierce's medicine and they recommend it highly. May God
bless and prosper you in your grand work"
III take pleasure in recommending DIT. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery as a blood purifier" writes I. J. Smithwick, Esq,
Accountant, of Norfolk, Va. "For years l was a sufferer from a
very obstinate form of skin disease, commonly known as letter,
which, being confined to the palms of my hands and fingers, was
very annoying. In cold weather the skin would become hare and
dry and would break or crack, which was very painful.
He advised me to try his Golden Medical Discovery to purify
the blood after which he thought the skin trouble would all dis
appear, and l am grateful to say that after the fourth bottle there
was no sign of the disease left. I think DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ia1 Discovery a wonderful blood purifier and most heartily
recommend it to all who may be suffering from any form OF skin
disease"

United States, by the undersigned, proprietors of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, if they cannot show the original
those published below, and also of every testimonial among
the thousands which they are constantly publishing attesting
the superior curative properties of their several medicines,

multitude of testimonials volunteered by grateful people, in
their behalf.
Worlds Dispensary Medical Association, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.
THE is no medicine equal to Doctor
blood. It carries off the poisons which contaminate the life
fluid. It increases the activity of the b1ood-naking glands
and gives the body an increased supply of pure, body-bui1d-
ing blood. It builds up the body with sound, healthy flesh
instead of fabby fat, promotes the appetite, feeds the nerves,
and so gives to weak nervous people vitality and vigor.
MANY people wonder how a medicine that can cure indiges-
ton can also cure blood diseases. The reason is that pinp1es,
sores and all skin diseases are the direct result of impure
blood. If we can find some way to purify the blood and
eradicate the poisons-we can cure the disorder which shows
on the skin. The HDiscovery" helps the assimilation of food
in the stomach-thus the blood takes up from the stomach
what it requires to make good rich blood, thereby increasing
the red blood corpuscles. At the same time the liver is forced
into activity and the poisons in the body are thrown out.
