alcohol. SO generally employed and
yet so harmful. in the long run, to
most invalids when its use is long
continued, even in small doses,
cost DR.. Pierce several years OF
careful study and labor, with the
aid of. skilled pharmacists and
chemists to assist him. Naturally,
he does not care to give away his
scientific and exact processes for
preparing these medicines, but he
does want to deal in the most open
manner with all his patrons and
patients, and under this frank, open
and honest way of dealing. they
may know exactly what they are
taking when using his medicines.
WHAT DO THEY CURE
This question is often asked con-
corning DR.. Pierce's two leading
medicines, Golden Medical Dis
covery' and "Favorite Prescrip-
ton
The answer is that Golden
Medical Discovery is a most
potent Alternative, or blood-puri6er,
and tonic or invigorator and acts
especially favorably in a curative
and healing way upon all the mu-
cous lining surfaces as of the nasal
passages, throat, bronchial tubes,
stomach, bowels and bladder, cur
ing large per cent of catarrhal
cases whether the disease affects
the nasal passages, the throat
larynx, bronchia, stomach (as ca
tarrhal dyspepsia). bowels las mu-
cous diarrhea). bladder. uterus or
other pelvic organs. Even in the
chronic or Lucrative stages of
these affections, it is often sue
cessful in effecting cures.
The "Favorite Prescription" is
advised for the cure of one class
OF diseases only-those peculiar
weaknesses. arrangements and ir-
Irregularities incident to women. 1t
is powerful vet gently acting III
vigorating tonic and strengthening

most effective in building up the

Of the composition of which they
are kept in ignorance. DR.. Pierce's
medicines are made wholly from
the roots of plants found growing
in the depths OF our American
forests. They are SO compounded
that they cannot do harm in any
case, even to the most delicate
woman or child. BY open publicity
DR.. Pierce has taken his medicines
out of the list of secret nostrums,
OF doubtful merit, and made them
REM EDIES OF KNOWN
COMPOSITION. T hey are,
therefore. in a class all by them
selves, being absolutely and in
every sense non-secret.
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.
There is badge Of honesty on
every bottle of DR.. Pierce's medi-
cines in the full list OF its ingredi-
ents duly attested as correct under
solemn oath.
No other medicines put up for
general use through druggists can
make claim to anv such distinction,
and none other than DR.. Pierce S
medicines have any such profes-

The most eminent and leading
medical teachers and writer's of all
the several schools of practice have
endorsed each of the ingredients
entering into DR.. Pierce's med
icines in the strongest possible
terms. The makers OF DR.. Pierce's
medicines believe that intelligent
people do not wish to open their
mouths like a lot of young birds

Trouble making is an older industry

TORTURED SIX MONTHS
BY Terrible itching Eczema--5aby's
Suffering Was Terrible - Soon
Entirely Cured by cuticura.

Eczema appeared on my sons face.
We went to doctor who treated him
for three months. Then he was SO bad
that his face and head were nothing
but one sore and his ears looked as IL
they were going to fall off, so we tried
another doctor for four months, the
baby never getting any better. His
hand and legs had big sores on them
and the poor little fellow suffered so
terribly that he could not sleep. After
he had suffered six months we tried
a set of the Cuticura Remedies and
the first treatment let him sleep and
rest well; in one week the sores were
gone and in two months he had clear
face. Now he is two years and has
never had eczema again. Mrs. Louis

CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.

Indigestion and the attendant dis.
comforts of mind and body are GER
tain to follow continued use Of improp-
er food.
Those who are still young and
robust are likely to overlook the fact
that, as dropping water viii wear a
stone away at last, SO will the use OF
heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause
loss of appetite and Indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principle Of Cause and Effect in
their daily food. A N. Y. young wom-
an writes her experience thus:
Sometime ago had lot of trouble
from indigestion, caused by too rich
food. got SO / was unable to d.
