have the healthy digestion to assimi-
late it; but the rich man without
stomach has to forego the juicy steak
and the good things of the table be-
cause his stomach rebels. After all,
the stomach plays great part in
everyday life. Without healthy
stomach and good digestion our
blood is thin, watery and poor, our
heart action is weak, our liver does
not do its duty, and man is miserable
and unhappy. In this condition man
is prey to the germs of influenza,
consumption, malaria and all the ills
that flesh is heir to.
Consumption can be treated by
natural methods, by methods which
are as close to nature as possible.
The treatment is brought within the
reach of the poorest classes, not only
in curing the disease in the begin
ming, but in the prevention of dis
ease, by putting the house in order
and Strengthening the system against
the germs of disease. We now I'M
derstand the cause of consumption,
that plague of the earth which, &C
cording to the census, kills off twelve
of every one hundred inhabitants Of
the United States.
Il suffered from dyspepsia over
five years, during which time l tried
everything we could hear of as being
recommended for that trouble, but
all to no avail, and l was getting
worse, writes Mrs. H. Gernand
of 26o2 Avenue G., Galveston, Texas.
Our family physician gave me med
icine, but it was like taking so much
water. One year before the storm of
1900 | was taken dangerously i'll.
Contracted a cold and it settled in
my stomach, leaving me with every
description of female trouble. | had
six of the best physicians in Texas
attending me, and all said that I
could not live one month without an
operation-to which | would not
submit; and, as their medicine only
served to make me worse, they gave
me up to die. | suffered excruciat-
ing pain, and when the effect of NOR
phine gave out / would go into con-
vulsions. | was so sore could not
move in bed for two months, and
when the last doctor gave me up
sent, through the service of friend,
and purchased a bottle of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, also
one of Golden Medical Discovery
and after taking four doses | did not
need any more morphine-did not
feel any more pain; this result after
having spent several hundred dol
lars in doctors bills and medicine
which gave no relief. Four bottles
of your medicine has completely
cured me-"
Il took only four bottles of DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
and two walls of his Pleasant Pei
let's and these remedies did me
world of good" writes w. Walter
McGloshen of Reinbeck, Iowa. Il
am thankful for your kind advice
and praise the medicines highly. Will
recommend DIR. Pierce's medicines
to all my friends as the best medi-
cines ever made for the troubles for
which they are recommended. There
is nothing equal to them for stomach
troubles"
