Children

Have reyes bigger than their stomachs."
according to an old saying. They over
eat themselves, and are tempted by all
sorts of injurious and indigestible edi-
bles. As consequence the foundation
of serious stomach trouble is often laid
in childhood.
For children with rweakr digestion or
whose stomachs are diseased, Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery may
be confidently recommended. 1t cures
diseases of the stomach and other organs
of digestion and nutrition, so that the
nourishment contained in food is per-
fectly assimilated and the puny child is
built up by food into condition of
robust health.
DR.. pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
contains neither alcohol nor narcotics.
Accept no substitute for Golden Med
ical Discovery" There is nothing rjust
as good for diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
Mrs. Ella Gardner. of watcrview, Middiesex
Co, Va, writes: uMy little daughter Is enjoying
splendid health, am glad I found doctor
who could cure my child. Whenever she feels
