Many man is looking out for his
health but looking for disease in the
wrong direction. He takes medicine for
his nerves, which seem "gone to pieces"
He doctors" for his heart, which is
acting irregularly. He constantly stirs
up his liver with pills and powder But
he does not get any better. He is look
ing for the cause of his complaints in
the wrong direction.
1t is a common thing for some one
who has used DR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery for vstoinach trouble" to
find that when the diseased stomach is
cured the "weak" heart is made sound.
the sluggish liver stimulated, and the
throbbing nerves tranquilized. This fact
alone suggests the truth which every
leading medical scientist knows and rec
ognizes-that diseases which seem re-
mote from the stomach are often caused
by the disease of the stomach and other
organs Of digestion and nutrition. When
the diseased stomach and the digestive
and nutritive system are cured of disease,
the other organs are cured with them
Food is the basis of life and OF
strength. But it is not the quantity of
food eaten which supports the life and
health of the body. The body is sus-
tanned by that portion Of the food which
after being eaten is converted into
nourishment and properly assimilated.
When the stomach and its allied organs
of digestion and nutrition are diseased
or "weak," only part of the food eaten
is converted into nutrition, and the body
and its organs are therefore only partly
nourished. DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery cures the diseases of the
stomach and digestive and nutritive sys-
tenn which prevent the proper nourisl-
Inent of the body. In that way the
body is once more strengthened in the
only way possible, by food properly
digested and perfectly assimilated
Any person suffering from disease in
chronic or aggravated form, is invited to
consult DR.. Pierce by letter free. AK
correspondence strictly private and con-
fidential. Address DIR. X. V. Pierce,
Buffalo, N. Y.
There is no alcohol in cGolden Med
ical Discovery" and it is entirely free
from opium, cocaine, and all other mar
cotics.
Accept no substitute for "Golden Med
ical Discovery" The main motive Of
substitution is the desire of the dealer to
make little more profit out of you by
selling you a less neritorious medicine.
