NPEN TO EVERiBOD IS the lulesl information as 10
~ the properties and uses of the several ingredients
entering into Dr. Perces family medicines, All OBJ
serving people must have noticed growing sentiment in
this country favor of using only puup foods and ned
cines of known composition 1t is but natural that one
should have some interest in the composition OF that which
he is expected to swallow whether it be food drink or med
cne This sentiment has resulted III the introduction in
the legislatures of many OF the States as also III the Con
gess OF the United States bills providing for the puhlica
ton of formula ingredients wrappers and labels OF
medicines and foods put up for general consumption
Recognizing this growing disposition on the part OF the
pIbc generally and satisfied that the fullest publicity can
only add to the well earned reputation OF his proprietary
medicines Dr. R. " Pierce, of Buffalo, n Y, has taken
time by the oreock" it were, and Is publishing broad
cast and each bottlewapper full and complete s OF
all the ingredients entering into his medicines "Golden
Medical Discovery" and "Favone Prescription"
This striking departure of Dr. Pierce from the usual
course pursued by the manufactures OF proprietary med
cnes at once takes his medicines out of the class generally
known as upaent" secret medicines, neither OF which
term is at all applicable 10 them as their formula now
appears the wrapper OF every bottle leaving the great
laboratory at Buffalo, N " 1t places them in class all

and as entirely harmless vegetable extracts MADE ana pre-
served by the of glycere and not with the usually en-
rloved strong alcohol which works so much injury, espe
cally in cases where treatment even though OF the best
must be continued for considerable periods OF time in order
to make the cure permanent
Many years ago, Dr. Pierce found that chemically pure
plVCerlue ''~N'''
both for extracting and preserving the meC hal principles
residing in our indigenous native medie plants such
as he employees exclusively i'll manufacturing ms medicines
Some of these medicinal roots have, since DR. Pierce
first commenced to use them advanced in price that they
NAV be cultivated with great profit by our farmers This is
especially true Of Golden Seal root which enters into both
the Doctors Golden Medical Discovery and his tavorite
Prescription 1t now brings upward OF $3.50 pound,
although formerly selling at from IS to 20 cents pound
Many tons Of this most valuable root are annually consumed
in Doctor Perces Laboratory.
In this way the afflicted, who may think favorably Of
using these nonsecet medicines taken into Dr. Pierce
full confidence and are informed to the properties and
uses of each of the several vegetable ingredients OF which
they composed.
When a woman takes "Favorte Prescription" she
knows lust what she using Dr. Pierce takes his patients
into his full confidence His medicines not secret COM
pound are not patent medicines but the avore pescp
tons of regular graduated physician OF large experience
in actual practice.
Thus you do have to rely upon DR.. Perces recon-
endation alone the marvellous curative properties
possessed by his uGoden Medical Discovery" for the cure
Of weak somachs dyspepsia torpid liver or biousness,
IMPURE blood and kindred ailments nor Of his aFavorite
