a Bold Stem.

To overcome the well-grounded and
reasonable objections of the more intel
ligent to the use of secret, medicinal COM
pounds, DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, n.
Y, some time ago, decided to make bold
departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers of put-up medicines for do
mestic use, and so has published broad
cast and openly to the whole world, a full
and complete list of all the ingredients
entering into the composition of his widely
celebrated medicines. Thus he has taken
his numerous patrons and patients into
his full confidence. Thus too he has re-
moved his medicines from among secret
nOStrums of doubtful merits, and made
them Remedies of K7lOlU1l Composition.
By this bold step DIR. Pierce has shown
that his formulas are of such excellence
that he is not afraid to subject them to
the fullest scrutiny.
Not only does the wrapper of every bottle
of DR.. Pierce'S Golden Medical Discovery, the
famous medicine for weak stomach. tornid
liver or biliouSness and all catarrhal diseases
wherever located, have printed upon it, in
plain English, full and complete list of all
the ingredients composing it. but small
book has been compiled from numerous
standard medical works. of all the different
schools of practice, containing very numer-
Gus extracts from the writings of leading
practitioners of medicine. endorsing in the
strongest possible terms. each and every ingre-
QlenG contained IN Dr. P1erce'S medicines.
One of these little books will be mailed free
to any one sending address on postal card or
by letter, to DR.. r. V. Pierce, Buffalo, n. Y,
and requesting the same. From this little
book it viii be learned that DR.. PierceS med
icineS contain no alcohol. narcotics, mineral
agents or other poisonous or injurious agents
and that they are made from native, medfci-
nal roots OF great value; also that some of
the most valuable ingredients contained in
: DR.. Pierce'S Favorite Prescription for weak,
nervous, over-worked. Urun-down." nervous
and debilitated women. were employed. long
years ago, by the Indians for similar ailments
affecting their squaws. In fact. one of the
most valuable medicinal plants entering into
the composition of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
Scription was known to the Indians g
rSquaw-Weed." Our knowledge of the uses
of not few OF our most valuable native, me-
dicinal plants was gained from the Indians.
As made up by improved and exact pro-
cesseS. the "Favorite Prescription is most
efficient remedy for regulating all the wom-
anly functions, correcting displacementS, as
prolapsus, anteversion and. netorversion,
overcoming painful periods, toning up the
nerves and bringing about perfect state OF
health. Sold by all dealers in medicines.

may be proceeded with.
Policyholders may save anything
they can find without fear of risking
the loss of their claims for insurance.
To great extent the work of demol-

the work of contracting and wrecking
