SOME SECRETS OF
PATENT MEDICINES.
The Origin of Some of the
Famous Medicines.

IF we could trace the origin of the
many things which enter into our
daily life we doubtless would be
greatly surprised at what we would
learn. In some instances we would
find their beginning in mere accident.
In other cases we would find that they
originated in some stroke of genius.
For instance, Comley's History of New
York State states that:
"Of the men who have given wealth,
stamina and character to the Empire
State, the medical profession has fur
nished example in the successful and
justly celebrated physician, DR.. r. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. Especially
educated for the profession, he early
supplemented his studies by extensive
and original research in its several de-
partments. Devoting his attention to
certain specialties of the science he has
so carefully investigated, he has been
rewarded in remarkable degree. That
his success is real is evidenced by the
fact that his reputation as man and
physician does not deteriorate, and the
fact that there is a steady increasing
demand for his medicines proves that
they are not nostrums, but reliable
remedies for disease" DR.. Pierce's
establishment at Buffalo is one of the
show points of that f1ourishing city and
is well worth visit just to see how
modern medicines, even though they
be patent, are compounded with the
utmost skill, by trained chemists, and
on the most scientific principles. 1t is
also worth while for the purpose of
seeing the methods followed by which
each applicant, whether he be a cor
respondent or patient at the hospital,
secures the care of eminent specialists
in medicines and surgery. Once these
things are seen, it will be speedily ac-
knowledged by the most skeptical that
all patent medicine businesses are not
the frauds which some careless papers
have declared them to be.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry is a pure medicine, made from
barks, leaves and roots of plants and
trees indigenous to America. 1t is
remedy without alcohol or any poison
GUS ingredient and taken from the sylvan
forests. 1t has stood the test of the
public's approval for the last third of a
century. For purifying the blood it
has no equal for positiveness and
safety. 1t is most effective for a
chronic cough, as it has soothing
effect upon the mucous membrane of
the throat SO that cough is smoothed
out and at the same time the blood
vessels are given a stimulation which
throws off cold, bronchitis or incipi-
ent consumption. Really a cold is
nothing but the stagnation of the blood
vessels of the human system. If people
want to remain strong and healthy they
should see that their kidneys are active.
