FACTS IN NATURE.
Not Only Do We Get Inspiration From
 Mature, But Health as Well.

For people who are rundown ana nerv- ous. who suffer from indigestion or dys- nepsia. headache, bilionsness, or torpid flyer, coated tongue with bitter taste Tn the morning and poor appetite, It pe- comes necessary to turn to some tonic or strenrthener which will assist Nature and help them to get on thelr rect ana put the body into its proper condition. it Is becoming more and more apparent tnat Natures most valuable healtn giS,us and roots. nv D;.o
 Nearly forty years ago, Dr. R.V. Fierce; now consulting physician to the lnvaildS Hotel and Surgical Institute, at BuHaio, N Y.. discovered that by sclentlncahy extracting. and combining certain medici- nal principles from native roots, taken from our American forests, he could pro iuce medicine which was marvelously efficient in curing cases of blood disorder and liver and stomach trouble as well as many other chronic, or lingering all ments. This concentrated extract of Natures vitality he named rGolden Med Ical Discovery" It purifes the blood by putting the stomach and liver into healthy condition, thereby helping the digestion and assimilation of food which feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak stomach. indigestion, torpid liver, or bil- iousness, and kindred Arrangements:
 If you have coated tongue, with bitter or had taste in the morning, frequent headaches. feel weak, easily tired, stitches pr pain in side, back gives out easily and aches. belching of gas, constipation, or irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat all ternating with chilly sensations or kin dred symptoms they point to Q. d,e,rIange- ,e,Igs which the wGoden Medical Discovery" will correct more speedily and perma- nently than any other known agent. Con tains no alcohol or habit forming drugs. All it's ingredients printed in plain Eng fish on wrapper.
 The sole motive for substitution IS to hermit the dealer to make little more profit. He gains; you lose. Accept no sub itItute for SGolden Medical Discovery"
 Constipation causes and aggravates many serious diseases. It is thoroughly cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. One . laxative; two or three are cathartic.
