THE OLD HOMESTEADS.
HISTORIC MONUMENTS TO The
THRIFT OF OUR ANCESTORS.

tees, the meadows, the old home
steads, as it is to want food and
drink. Our ancestors built we'll
when they erected those old man
sions, the walls of which are in many
cases as firm and good today as they
were one hundred and fifty years
ago. Our ancestors lived more sim
pie lives than we do at the present
dav. They lived closer to nature.
They lived in the sunshine and out
Of DOORS AS a rule they ate simple
foods and easily digested them. To-
day the American people eat fast,
eat unwho1esome foods and are shut
I'D in dark and close offices, shops
and illv ventilated rooms. Nature
provides us with all we need for life
if we only can take advantage of the
good air, sunshine and eat good
fruits and vegetables. Nature also
provides the remedy for ill-health
and stomach troubles in its roots,
herbs and barks Some forty years
ago DIR. r. Y. Pierce, now chief OF
staff to the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, n. Y,
found that certain herbs, roots and
barks, when made into concen-
trated extract, helped in the assimlla-
ton of the food and purified the
blood. This Golden Medical Dis
coverv" of DR.. Pierce makes pure
rich blood. Every bottle bears the
stamp of public approval. The rea-
son many patent medicines fail III
curing disease and eradicatlng
poisons from the blood is because
they contain large quantities of alco-
hol. DR.. R.V. Pierce never believed
in the use of alcohol for a medical
tonic, as he found it shrunk up the
red blood corpuscles, and although
it might give temporary benefit, it
did no lasting good. Any one can
easily prove that DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery contains no alco-
hol by simple distillation. There
fore do not permit the dealer to per-
srade YOU that he makes something
better, or knows of something lust
as good" for it is almost certain to
contain alcohol or narcotics, and will
rot do you the lasting good which
this Discovery of DR.. Pierce IS
sure to do. Thousands of people
have given their testimony as to its
merits, and lack of space only per-
nits us to publish few OF the many
letters received every day from those
who have tested its merits. The rea-
, son they speak so highly of it is be-
cause it supplies the needed strength
to the body to throw off cold-to
prevent catarrh, pneumonia or con-
sumption. BY its nourishing quail
tiles the body is filled with renewed
vitality and for the weakened system
as a remedy for those recovering
from sickness it is the safest tonic
one can take.
