 Dr. Pierce believes that our Arrercan forests abound in mos' valuable medi- cinal roots for the cure of most of our obstinate and most fatal diseases, fl ve would properly investigate them; ard, in confirmation of this firm convict;an, he points with pride 10 the almost T, ar- velous cures effected by his rGol,ien Medical Discovery" which has proven itself to be the most efficient stomach tonic, liver invigorator, heart tonic and regulator, and blood cleanser known to medical science. Not less marvellous, in the unparalleled cures ii is constantly making oi wo:uen < many peculiar affec- tions, weakness and distressing derange- ments, is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip- ton, as is amply a;tested by thousands of unsolicited testimonials contributed by grateful patients who have been cured by it of ieucorrhea. painful periods, irregularities, prolapsus and other rdlSplacements, ui"eration of uterus ard kindred affections, oiten after many other advertised medicines had failed.
 Both these worId-fameG ncdicines are wholly made up from the glvceric extracts of native, medicinal roots. found in our American forests. The processes employed in their manu- facture were original with Dr. Pierce. and they are carried on by skilled chem ists and pharmacists with the aid of apparatus and appliances specially designed and built for this purpose. Both medicines are entirely free from alcohol and all other harmful. habit forming drugs.

Whose Say=so Is Best ?

With nearly all medicines put up for sale through druggists, one has to take the mak- CTS say-so alone and exclusively as to their curative value. Of course, such testimony is not that of a disinterested party and ac- cordingly is not to be given the same credit as if written from disinterested motives.

Dr. Pierce's medicines, however, form single and therefore striking exception to the above rule. Their claim to the confidence of invalids does not rest solely upon their owners and makers say-so or praise. Their ingredients are matters of public knowledge, being printed on each separate bottle-wrap- per. Thus invalid sufferers are taken into Dr. Pierce's full confidence. Scores of leading medical men have written enough to fill volumes in praise of the curative value of the several ingredients entering into these well known med ieines.
 In favor of Dr. P!orce's medicines is tho frank, coniding, open, honest state ment of their full composition, giving every ingredient ,n ptd,n English, with out fear of successful criticism and with confidence that the good sense of the afflicted will lead them to appreciate this honorable manner of confiding to them what they are taking into their etomachs when making use of these medicines.
 WHAT THEY CURE. People often ask What do Dr. Pierce's' two leading me1lcines-'G Golden Medical Discovery and Favorite Prescription cure?"
 Briefly. the answer is that eGclden Medical Discoveryn is most potent aI: IeraIIve. or olood-purifier, and tonic, or inyigorator and acts especiallv favor ably in a curative way upon all the mucous lining surfaces, as of tbe nasal passages, throat, bronchial tnbes, stom- ach, bowels and bladder curing a large percentage of catarrhal cases whether the disease affects the nasal passages. the throat, larynx, bronchia, stomach (as catarrhal dyspepsial, bowels as mucous diarrhea), bladder, uterus or other pelvic organs. Even in the chronic or ulcerative stages of these affections. 1t is generally successful in affecting cures. In fact the rGolden Medical Discovery" is without doubt, the most successful constitutional remedy for all forms of catarrhal diseases known to modern medical science In Chronic Nasal Catarrh Dr. .Sage's Catarrh Rem edv fluid should be used for washing and cleansing out the nasal passages while taking the rDiscoverv" for it's blood cleansing and specific, healing effects upon the mucous lining mem branes. This combined local and gen eral treatment will cure a very large percentage of the worst cases of chronic nasal catarth, no matter of how many years standing they may be.
 As to the "Favorite Prescription ? it is advised for the cure of one class of diseases only-those weaknesses, de- rangements and irregularities peculiar to women. It ia powerful, yet gently ketipg, inyigorating tonic and neryine.

ABOUT VEGETABLES.

It is safe to say that it is rather a new discovery that vegetables are en- dowed with qualities which are transmitted to those who feed upon the kindly fruits of the earth. These qualities are physical, moral and in- tellectual. If we desire to develop the reasoning powers and to endow the equilibrium of the mind with calmness and concentration we must eat potatoes, but we must at the same time remember that overindul- gence in that succulent root may produce apathy and indifference. Carrots produce good temper and are strongly recommended to peevish and bilious people. French beans the haricotvert ofour French friends lead to day-dreaming and artistic thoughts and sentiments, and no better food for authors and journal ists can be found.-Lady's Pictorial.
