BLOOD MYLLTHL.

1t takes lots of vitality, nervous force and
strength to win a race. Blood must be
pure and good.
Without good red blood man has a
weak heart and poor nerves. Thinness of
the blood, or anemia, is common in men
and young women, and all those who work
indoors, who do not get enough good OK
ygen in their lungs, consequently have too
many white blood corpuscles.
Keep the nerves nourished, the heart
strong, the head cool, the stomach vigorous,
the liver active with a tonic which has
stood the test of time and has wide repu-
tation, such as DR.. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery.
Tonics consisting of large portions of
alcohol, iron or cod liver oil, do not bring
the desired changes in the blood, because
they do not enter the system and are not
absorbed into the blood with the excep-
ton of the alcohol, which shrivels up the
red blood corpuscles when it does come in
contact with them. Therefore do not allow
the dealer to insult your intelligence by
telling you he has something better than
