 Cafes and lunch-rooms are filled with met and women who seem to give all their time and attention to thoughts of properly or improperly feeding their stomachs "It is of course best to eat slowly, but not too much" says Dr. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Sur gical Institute, of Buffalo, N Y. In this 2oth century people devote so much time to head work that their brain is Tagged and there isn't sufficient blood left to properly take care of the other organs of the body. The stomach must be assisted in its hard work-the liver started into action-by the use of good stomach tonic, which should be entirely of vegetable ingredients and without alcohol. After years of experience i'll an active practice, Dr. Pierce discovered remedy that suited these conditions in a blood-maker and tissuebuilder. He called it Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery --an alterative extract that assists in the digestion and assimilation of the food in the stomach-so that the blood gets what 1t needs for food and oxidation, the liver is at the same time started into activity and there is perfect elimination of waste mat ter When the blood is pure and rich, all the organs work without effort, and the oody is like perfect machine.

I was also troubled with severe rheumatic pains in my limbs. I commenced taking Peruna and now my hearing is restored as good as 1t was prior to June, 1901. My rheumatic pains are all gone.

swiftly rose from tbe Cracker or Hill
billy to the successful business man Of
the country 10 which he dwells.

to trudge along, idling away their
lives, have from the force Of circum-
stances, blended into manly men Of
action, alert and industrious, pushing
business for the love of accomplishing,
and they are making their mark in the
world. This same rule applies to
many other changes In the South. No

that the successful business man here
does not become a snob. The attain

mans head, but rather sharpens bis

to waste in showing of. Instead be
