Many years ago, DR.. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, OF proper
strength. is a far better solvent n pre-
sentative of the medicinal principles
found in our indigenous, or native, medi-
cinal plants, than Is alcohol. Believing,
as ne does, that the use of alcohol, wen
in small portions, If long continued,
works great harm to the human system,
he determined not to employ this com
monty used agent in making his medi-
cineS, but to use pure, triple refined
glycerine instead. Now, glycerine is not
only perfectly harmless but possesses
intrinsic medicinal properties, being a
most valuable demulcent, solvent, nu-

The crdct proportion of the severa
ingredients used in these medicines. as
well as the working formula and peculiar
processes, apparatus and appliances en-

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
With DR.. Pierce's medicines you don't
have to pin your faith wholly to what
the manufacturer says Of their curative
potency as with other medicines. Mer-
cenary motives, the greed for money
getting, it is feared, often lead men, anC
women too, to put forth unreasonabl,
claims for their loudly praised bu
many times nearly worthless compounds
Especially should the afflicted beware o
the "Cheap-JOhn," free, give away, "tria
bottle" dodge. 1t don't pay to tri1e witt
ones health. 1t should be regarded a!
too sacred to be experimental with.
Dr.. Pierce'S medicines have Il RECORD
of nearly forty years of cures behind
them. embracing many hundreds Of thou
sands of bad cases restored to health
and happiness.
THEY STAND ALONE
in having the professional endorsement
Of scores of eminent medical practitioners
and writers, of all the several schools OF
medical practice. who praise the curative

Of which they are composed, away be-

cineS have ever claimed for them. These
are the more valuable because in every
case written without the author know
ing that he was praising articles entering
into these popular medicines, the matter
being composed for publication in vari-
Gus medical journals and books designed
exclusively for professional reading and
instruction. The afflicted can, therefore,
rely upon such testimony as in every
way truthful and trustworthy.
