There can be no question that the
common-sense way OF treating all these
symptoms IS first 10 cast out the poisons
from the system by simple vegetable
Laxative such as DR. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. These are made from botanical
extracts, IN concentrated form. To enrich
the blood and increase the red corpus
cles, DR.. Pierce years ago demonstrated
in his large practice that there was "A
vegetable compound that would quickly
cure the bad symptoms enumerated
above by increasing the red blopd cor
'puscles and thereby feeding the nerves
on rich blood and thus doing away with
the nervous irritability. This Medical
Discovery" also acts upon the digestion
and assimilation of food in the stomach,
so that the blood gets its proper food in
the stomach. Feed the lungs, stomach
and heart on rich red blood and YOU
have surely a healthy body which will
throw off the germs OF disease which
lurk everywhere. Get as near natures
way as you can A medicine made en-
tirely from botanical extracts and which
does not contain alcohol Is the safest
method. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery contains no alcohol nor mar
cotics.
