OF just the right proportion of each of
Z the roots of several Indigenous, or native,
medicinal plants, or rather of the active,
medicinal principles slillfully extracted
therefrom by the use of chemically pure
glycerine of Just the right strength, con-
tion for the cure of weak, invalid, nerv-
GUS, urun down." over worked women.
=. Many years ago, DIR. Pierce discovered
: that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, is far better solvent and pre-
,servative of the medicinal principles
found in our indigenous, or native, medi-
cinal plants, than IS alcohol. Believing,
(. as he does, that the use of alcohol, even
! in small portions, If long continued,
works great harm to the human system,
.. he determined not to employ this COM
3 monty used agent In making his medi-
glycerine instead. Now, glycerine is not
only perfectly harmless but possesses
!. intrinsic medicinal properties, being a
: most valuable demulcent, solvent, nu-
Z tritive, anti septic and anti ferment.

selues. They are neither patent nor
i secret medicines. Their ingredients are

ployed in their manufacture, are with
held from publicity that DR.. Pierce's
proprietary rights may not be lnfringed

Simitators and those who may be piratic-

WHAT OTHERS SAY. -
= With DR.. Pierce's medicines you don't
! have to pin your faith wholly to what
the manufacturer says OF their curative
potency as with other medicines. Mer-
,cenary motives, the greed for money
getting, it is feared, often lead men, and
women too, to put forth unreasonable
claims for their loudly praised but
many times nearly worthless compounds:
Especially should the afflicted beware OF
the Cheap john" free, give away, trial
ones health It should be regarded as
/. too sacred to be experimental with.
DR.. Pierce's medicines have a record
. of nearly forty years of cures behind
them, embracing many hundreds OF thou
sands of bad cases restored to health
and happiness.
THEY STAND ALONE
in having the professional endorsement
of scores Of eminent medical practitioners
and writer's, of all the several schools OF
medical practice, who praise the curative
properties Of the several ingredients
of which they are composed, away be-
You'd all that the makers of these medi-
cines have ever claimed for them. These
are the more valuable because in every
case written without the author know
ing that he was .praising articles entering
u into these popular medicines, the matter
being composed for publication In vari
Gus medical journals and books designed
s exclusively for professional reading anG
instruction. The afflicted can, therefore
rely upon such testimony as in every
way truthful and trustworthy.
