THE TARGET.
CUPID REACHES A nAN'S HEART
THROUGH THE STOMACH.

There is no disputing the fact that
mans heart is often reached through
the stomach. Happy the housewife who
can please her husbands appetite with
We'll cooked food for the table. Many a
man is grouchy, ugly, nervous, suffering
from distress after eating, heart palpi-
tation, and all through the overworked
stomach. No Chain is stronger than its
weakest link. No man is stronger than
his stomach. If the proper elements in
the food are not taken up by the blood
in the stomach and carried to the vital
organs of the body, ones health breaks
down and one leaves the gates open for
the entrance of disease germs The
germs of typhoid fever, grip, malaria,
pneumonia and consumption cannot pass
through the stomach into the intestines,
where alone they are capable of going
unless the stomach has first been weak
ened by disease, indigestion, dyspepsia
or errors in diet. Keep the stomach
healthy, the bowels regulated and the
blood pure and rich and your body is
stronghold against which the germs of
disease cannot make a successful attack.
If your blood is impure and you are
sometimes pale or have the other signs
of bad blood, such as pimples, boils and
eruptions, you should at once take warn
ing.
NATURE THE PHYSICIAN.
Nature is the real physician In
such cases, for DR.. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y, years ago discovered that certain
herbs and roots made into an extract,
without the use of alcohol, was the
very best means of putting the stom-
ach, blood and vital organs into prop
er condition. His DR.. Pierce's Cold
en- Medical Discovery helps the as
sanitation of the food in the stomach,
assists the blood in taking up the proper
elements from the food, helps the liver
into activity, thereby throwing out the
poisons in the blood and vita1izing the
whole system. This assimilation helps
in the oxidation of the red blood cor
puscles, the poisons in the system are
eliminated, the heart gets the night kind
of blood and the person feels invigorated
and stronger in consequence. As It's
sue builder it is far preferable to cod
liver oil or any alcoholic compounds or
tonics, because it gives the blood and
the tissues the food elements they re-
quire and maintains a PERSONS nutrition
by enabling him to eat, retain, digest
and assimilate nutritious food. 1t over
comes the gastric irritabifty and symp-
toms Of indigestion. Because of tie
good effects from using DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery upon nutri-
ton and the building up of the tissues,
catarrh, consumption, weakness or de-
bility and symptoms of fever, night !
sweats, headaches, ETC., disappear.
THE CHAIN OF LIFE.
Each Of the chief organs of the body
Is link in the chain of life. A chain Is
no stronger than its weakest link, the
body no stronger than its weakest Or
gan. If there Is weakness of heart or
lungs, liver or kidneys, there is a weak
link in the chain of life which may
snap at any time. Often this so-cal1ed
"weakness" is caused by lack of nutri-
ton, the result of disease of the stomach.
Diseases of the stomach and its allied
organs a-e cured by the use of DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
When the diseased stomach Is cured,
diseases of other organs which seem re-
mote from the stomach, but which have
their origin In a diseased condition of
the stomach and other organs of diges-
ton and nutrition, are cured also.
THE FARMER FAILS
In health just as does the city-man, and
he fails commonly from the same cause,
rstomach trouble The farm is a
Wholesome place to live; the farmers
life is healthy life; but no external
advantages can overcome the effects of
diseased stomach. When the stomach
and its allied organs of digestion and
nutrition are diseased, the food eaten is
