Are You Tired, Nervous
 and SIeepless :?

Nervousness and sleeplessness are us- ually due to the fact that the nerves are not fed on properly nourishing blood; they are stdrUcd nerves. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes pure, rich blood, and thereby the nerves are properly nourished and all the organs of the body are run as smoothly as machin- cry which runs in oil. In this way you feel clean strong and StrenuouS-you are toned up and invigorated, and you are good for whole lot of physical or mental work Best of all, the strength and in crease in vitality and health are LdSttrig.
 The trouble with most tOnicS and med icines which have large, booming sale for short time, is that they are largely composed of alcohol holding the drugs in solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red blood corpuscles, and in the long run greatly injures the system. One may feel exhilarated and better for the time being, vet in the end weakened and with vitality decreased. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery contains no alcohol. Every bottle of 1t bears upon its wrapper Tho Bdd0e of HonestU in full list of all its several ingredients.
