 from starvation than the world dreams of When the stomach Is dis sased and the food eaten is not diRested and assimilated, then the strength of the body begins to fail because of lack of nutrition, and the weak body falls an easy victim to the microbes of disease.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It restores physical strength in the only possible way, by enabling the assimila- lion of the nutrition contained in food.
