pepsia; thought at the time that had
at almost any minute, ;" writes Mrs.
Lois Hooper, of Red Bluff, Mont 81
made up my mind to write to DIR. R.V.
Pierce, which / did, and received a
prompt reply advising me to take his
Golden Medical Discovery / took
six bottles, and can truthfully say that
l have neither heart trouble nor dys-
pepsia now. / would advise all who
are suffering from either trouble to
write to DR.. Pierce at once.''
There is nothing that will cause 80
much suffering and general disturbance
In the system as surely and insidiously
as will trouble with the stomach. The
distress OF an acute gastric catarrh is
prostration. 1t is usually brought on
by some error in diet, passes off in a
short time, but will return if care is not
used to avoid the cause of the irrita-
ton. One of the first signs of chronic
stomach trouble is the loss of appetite.
This is frequently followed by heart
burn, sour quotations and headache.
AS soon as this organ becomes weak
ened, the whole system suffers, and loss
of weight and strength show that the
body is not getting sufficient nourish-
ment. Without a healthy, active stom-
ach the food taken into the body cannot
be properly cared for, and as all our
strength comes, of course, from the food
we eat, it follows that healthy stomach
must be the foundation of all strength
and energy. Many cases of so-called
heart trouble are simply aggravated
cases of stomach weakness. The heart
lies very close to the stomach, and
when the food taken in is not digested
properly, but stagnates and ferments,
gas is formed, and this not only dis
tends the stomach like balloon, but it
also presses against the heart and
greatly impedes it's action, which is the
cause of heartburn. By the action of
the decomposing materials, the walls
OF the stomach are stretched and lose
tone, and are unable to secrete the
necessary fluids to digest the food, and
in this way the trouble rapidly becomes
worse and worse, and the muscle
walls of the stomach, which should
thoroughly churn and mix the con-
tents, are not equal to the task. In
such case good reliable remedy will
often work wonders, and DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is unsur-
passed as a stomach tonic. Bitters
simply stir up the diseased organ to
further exhaustion, and alcoholic medi-
cines dry up the blood. DIR. Pierce's
medicine, on the contrary, gives tone
to its walls, and the natural appetite
promptly returns. If you are suffer-
ing from any kind of stomach or
blood trouble, you can confidently
expect the best results if you take
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
In case you are uncertain as to the
nature of your trouble, write Doctor
Pierce, at Buffalo, N. Y, and he will
send you advice free of charge. For
81 cents in one-cent stamps, to pay
postage, he will send you his "Com-
mon Sense Medical Adviser" mag
nifcent Doctor book of 1908 pages,
profusely illustrated, which should be
