Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for
distressing ailments peculiar to won
No other medicines sold through
druggists for domestic use can show
any such professional endorsement.
DR.. Pierce's aforementioned reme-
dies are non-alcoholic and nom
secret, all their ingredients being
printed on each bottle wrapper. They
occupy unique position and are
IN A CLASS ALL BY THEM
SELVES. They are neither secret
nor patent medicines. They are pow
cIful to cure but safe to use in any
condition of the system, even for the
most delicate women and children.
Pure, triple-rehned glycerine,
which is used instead of alcohol both
for extracting and preserving the
active medicinal principles from the
roots of the several American for
est plants entering into Doctor
Pierces medicines, is much superior
to alchohol for these purposes, and is
entirely free from the Objectionable
features inherent in alcohol, mas
much as it produces only salutary
influences upon the system, while al
cohol, even in moderate portions, if
long continued, as in the treatment
of obstinate ailments, is very injuri-
Gus and often begets a craving for
stirnulants. Furthermore, glycerine
itself is most valuable curative
agent instead of being a harmful
habit-forming agent like alcohol.
Its nutritive properties, DR.. Pierce
and many others eminent in the pro-
fession believe, far surpass those of
cod liver oil, emitting it to favorable
consideration as remedy in all
cases Of incipient consumption, espe-
cially when it is combined with the
active medicinal principles extracted
from Black Cherry-bark, Queens
root, Stone root, Golden Seal root
and Bloodroot, as in Golden Medi-
cal Discovery"
Besides its superior nutritive prop
critics, glycerine is a very valuable
demulcent and thereby greatly en-
hances the remedial action of all the
foregoing roots in the cure of Sc
we're coughs, bronchial, throat,
laryngeal and other kindred affec-
tons of the air passages and lungs.
In all wasting Diseases" where
there is loss of flesh and gradual
running down" of the system, the
glycerine certainly plays an i'm
portant part in lessening the break
ing down and wasting of flesh, and in
promoting assimilation and increase
OF bodily strength and weight. 1t is
powerful reconstructive agent in
all cases of impaired vitality, and cs-
pecially valuable when associated
and combined with such superior
alternatives and tonics as in Golden
Medical Discovery" and "Favorl:e
Prescription" It's wonderful solvent
properties also play an important
part in the cure of gall stones and
severe constipation.
Glycerine is also one of the very
best anti-ferments, and as such
counteracts the excessive fermenta-
ton of foods in the stomach, pres
ent in most cases of indigestion CT
dyspepsia. Thus the pain, belchiny
Of noxious gas, bloating and other
disagreeable symptoms are over
come and the Stone root, Golden
Seal root, Bloodroot and other in
gradients of Golden Medical Dis
eovery" are greatly assisted in their
action in completing cure.
AS will be seen from the writings
of Drs. Bartholow, King, Scudder,
Hale, Wood, Hare, Johnson, Gee,
Ellingwood and other high authori-
ties, as contained in the little book
mentioned below, these agents can
confidently be depended upon for the
most positive curative action in all
atomic, or weak, states of the sto1n-
ach, accompanied with distressing
Indigestion or dyspepsia and kim
dred resultant affections of the live,
