WUkIo vi PRAISE WELL MERITED
BY WELL KNOWN ARr1cye

SO much has been written bv tbo
standard medical authorities, of all the
several schools of practice, in praise
OF the native, or American, medicinal
plants which enter into the comnos;.
ton OF DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis.
'covery, that in attempting TO onote
from the various works on l|dterio
.Hedica one hardly knows where IN
commence, since they are so yolnmin.
Ious that only the briefest and most i'm
perfect reference can be presented in a
short article like this.
Briefly then let us say that the
Golden Medical Discovery was
named from the sturdy little plant
Golden Seal, the root of which enters
largely into its composition. Besides
this most valuable Ingredient, it con-
tains glyceric extracts OF Stone root
Queen S root, Black Cherrybark, Blood,
root and Mandrake root.
Finley Ellingwood, NJ. D., an emip-
ant practitioner Of Chicago and Profess
ior of Hdtcria Med,ca in the Bennett
Medical College of that city. in his
recently published work on Therapeu-
PICS, says OF Golden Seal root: ut is
the most natural of stimulants to the
normal functions OF digestion. Its in
Ihuence upon the mucous surfaces rem
ders it most important in catarrhal
gastrltis inflammation of stomach) and
gastric (stomach) ulceration.r
Many other authorities as we'll as DR..
lElllngwood eXtol the Hydrastis Golden
SeaD, as remedy for catarrhal dis
eases of the nasal passages, stomach,
bronchia, gall ducts, kidneys, intestines
and bladder. Among these, we may
mention Prof. John King, NJ. D., author
OF the American Dispensatory; Prof.
j. NJ. Scudder, NJ. D., in his Specific
Medication DR.. Hale of the Hahne-
mann Med. College of Chicago; Grover
Coe, NJ. D., OF New York, in his rOr-
ganic Medicines" DR.. Bartholow of JEFF
ferson Med. College and scores Of other
leading medical writers and teachers.
All the foregoing eminent authorities
extol the curative virtues of Golden
Seal in cases of stomach, liver and in
testinal weakness, torpor and liberation
OF bowels. DR.. Ellingwood recommends
it most highly, "In those cases of atomic
dyspepsia when the entire apparatus,
including the liver, is stagnant and
imperative He also extols it most
highly in the many weaknesses and de-
engagements peculiar to women and
says, ut is most important remedy in
many disorders OF the womb" Golden
Seal root (Hydrastls), is an important
ingredient of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription for weak, nervous, rundown"
women.
But to return to the uGolden Medical
Discovery" it may be said that its cur
ative properties are not wholly depend
ent upon Golden Seal, valuable rs it is,
as other equally potant ingredients add
greatly to its value and in fact are not
less important than the Hydrastis, or
Golden Seal.
] In all bronchial, throat, lung and
kindred ailments, Stone root, Black
Cherrybark, Queens root and Blood
root, each plays as important a part
in effecting the phenominal cures of
vGolden Medical Discovery" as does
Golden Seal. All these ingredients
have the endorsement of prominent
practitioners of all schools of medicine
for the cure Of diseases of the broncha,
throat and lungs.
