health Of t!.o human body requires per
feet balance Of the constituent elements
OF which it is composed. The carbon
iron, lime, sulphur, sodium, etc, must al,
be replaced as they are used up in human
energy. Take all the iron from the blood
and the circulation stops. That's death.
Change t,,c proper proportion of these
substances to each other, destroy their

TIE FOOD WE EAT.
Where do these essential clements Of
vital force come from? From the food
we eat. How are they extracted and dis
tribGtel to the several organs they sus-
tain? Tho are extracted and distributed
by the stomach and other organs of di-

is the hunger cry of the starved organs.
What then is the logical first step to

Pierce'S Golden Medical Discovery and
that is just the secret of the many mar
Vicious cures effected by this remedy.
No medicine can make fat or flesh.
Food alone can make them. Only the
tract from tho food tho elements that
make flesh and fat and sustain life.
rNerve foods, rblood-making medicines,
are mere fadS and fallacics. The stomach
and organs of digestion and nutrition pre-
pare and distribute the food.
