When a boy turns his bullying pocket inside
out we marvel at the quantity and variety of
articles he has slowed away. Odd lengths of
string, marbles, horse-chestnut, top, brass
nails, hiekory-nuts, an apple, and many more
articles are garnered by this snapper up of
unconsidered trifes." We think the collec-
ton must be hard on boys pockets. And it
$. But do we ever think of the variety and
miscellany of the substances we put into our
stomach? There's the apple and the nuts, and
things beside quite as indigestible as brass
nails and with no more food value than so
many marbles. And yet we wonder that the
stomach gives out" When the stomach
breaks down under the strain Of careless eat-
ing and irregular meals it can be perfectly
and permanently restored to health and
strength by the use of Doctor Pierce's Gold
en- Medical Discovery. The action Of this
medicine on the stomach and other organs of
digestion and nutrition is so marked that re-
lief from disease is at once experienced, and
the headaches, liver troubles" kidney dis
orders, skin eruptions and other symptoms Of
diseased stomach are quickly cured. DR..
Pierce's medicines are purely vegetable-no
alcohol or habit-forming drugs enter into
their composition.
