COUNTRY LIFE.
THE RICHES OWNED BY FARMERS.

The American farmer to-day represents q new generation of intelligent, inde pendent, thrifty people with money and inclination to be progressive. The farm products of this year will bring to the farmers and planters probably five bill lion dollars, which would prove that they could corner the money market of this country if they got together and used it as one man. Strength, strenuos-' ty and the future health of the Ameri- can people depends upou our country folks. As a rule, country folk are healthier than those who live in our crowded cities. Consumption is dis ease of civilization. It scarcely exists among savages who live i'll the primitive state, but quickly appears among such people when the habits of civilization are adopted, especially indoor life. Life in the open air and sunshine gives vital ity and health. The strongest minds have gotten their inspiration direct from Nature, the great teacher and developer of mankind Ill the same way people have more faith in remedy which IS taken from nature, from the vegetable kingdom, than from any other source. A remedy which has enjoyed a grand reputation for the last third of a century is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov- cry, an alternative extract taken from barks roots and herbs, without the use of a particle of alcohol or narcotics. This medicine goes to the root of disease by initiating natures methods of restoring waste of tissue and impoverishment of the blood and nervous force. This vMedical Discovery of Dr. Pierce coaxes the digestive functions and helps ill the assimilation of food, or rather takes from the food just the nutriment the blood requires.
 Along with its use one should take exercise i'll the outdoor air, get all one can of Gods sunlight and air and prac- tice a mild breathing exercise each day. This Medical Discovery" gives no false stimulation, because it does not contain alcohol or narcotic. It helps diges- ton and the assimilation of such ele- ments in the food as are required for the blood. Instead of cod liver oil, against which the already sensitive stomach will declare open rebellion, this tonic has a pacifying action upon the sensitive stom- ach and gives to the blood the food clements the tissues require. It main tains nutrition by enabling one to eat, retain, digest and assimilate nutritious food. It overcomes gastric irritability and symptoms of indigestion, and, ill this way, fever, night-sweats, headaches, etc., are done away with. That is why "Golden Medical Discovery" is one of the best possible tonics in cases of bronchitis and consumption in it's early stages, for it builds up the strength as well as soothes the cough. Many, many cases of bronchitis and incipient consumption have been cured by it's use. Read what MT. Lynch says about his case
 vAbout year ago I had very bad cough and feared it would run into con- sumption writes Hon. Geo. w. Lynch, Ex-Alderman, and Treasurer Worcester Mutual Benefit Association, of P Mason St., Worcester Mass. "When severe attack of coughing would come on my stomach would get weak and spell of vomiting would set in. This came gem orally after eating. Matter accumulated in nose and my tonsils were irritated. After reading of the wonderful cures resulting from Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery began to use it, with some doubts as to the good 1t would do me, m frank to say. But, after l had useo
