ON THE FARM.
HOW NATURE PROVIDES FOR US.

The most independent man on earth is the farmer, for he makes the earth yield him almost everything needed for lffe. He knows that as he sows so will he reap. He usually keeps strong and healthy from constant strife with Nature in sunshine and in pure air. At night when work is done, he finds most refresh Ing sleep, such as only tired man knows. In tAe same way that the earth yields food for man, 50 does it provide remedies for human ills. Thousands of households throughout the farming dis tricts of the United States know the value of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. It is Natures most valuable and health-giving agent-made without the use of alcohol. It contains native medi- cinal roots, and is the concentration of Natures vitality as found in the Amert- can forests. This remedy has history which speaks well for 1t because it was given to the public by Dr. R. V. Pierce, founder of the Invalids' Hotel and Surg ical Institute, at Buffalo. N. Y., nearly forty years ago, and has since been sold by druggists in ever increasing quan- titles.
 Dr. Pierce found that the bark of the Black Cherry tree. the root of the Mandrake, Stone root, Queens root, Bloodroot and Golden Seal root. made into a scientific, non-alcoholic extract by the use of glycerine made the best altera- tive and tonic. The reireshing influence recovered strength of the patient-the vital fires of the body burn brighter and their increased activity consumes tho tissue rubbish which otherwise may poison the system. This alternative and tonic extract has been found to stand alone as a safe, invigorating tonic, as 1t does not depend on alcohol for false stimulation, but is NdtssTe's ot11s method of strengthening and cleansing the sys- tenn. It tones up the stomach and purifes the blood in Natures own way. It is we'll known all over the world as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. The name was given to this vegetable compound because one of the important ingredients was Golden Seal root. Such an authority as Dr.. Roberts Bartholow, of JefPerson Medical College, says of Golden Seal root, "very useful as a stomachic tonic. Cures catarrh of the stomach and headaches accompanying the same" pr. cines, speaking of Golden Seal root, says that ~as liver invigorator 1t has feso eyaSdIs.s Further he says, sin chronic in- dammation of the bladder we deem 1t one of the most reliable agents of cure.

Has distinct, nti-malarial influence. uterine catarrh, leucorrhea, etc. IS curative agent in chronic dyspepsia"
 Prof. John M. Scudder in Specific Med. icatton says of Golden Seal: Mt stimu- lates the digestive processes, and increases the assimilation of food. By these means the muscular system. l mention the muscular system because I believe 1t first feels the increased power imparted by the stimulation of increased nutrf- slon. The consequent improvement on the nervous and glandular systems are natural results.
