Pierces Invalids' Hotel in Buffalo.
N. Y. Although established many years
ago it is today a modern sanitarium,
having all the latest facilities for the
correct diagnosis of diseases and their
successful treatment through medicine
or surgery.
1t was DR.. Pierce, its founder,
who over so years ago gave to the
world that wonderful stomach tonic
and blood purifier, Golden Medical
Discovery" and that famous nom
alcoholic medicine for women, .Fa-
vorite Prescription"
In his early professional career, DR..
Pierce realized that every family. but
especially those who live remote from
a physician, should have at hand an
instructive book that would teach them
something about First Aid, Physi-
ology, Anatomy, Hygiene; how to rec
ognize different diseases, how to care
for the sick, what to do in case of ac-
cident or sudden sickness, ETC., SO he
published that great book. the Medical
Adviser" an up-to-date edition OF
which can be procured by sending so
cents to Doctor Pierce's Invalids'
| Hotel in Buffalo, n. 7.
Later Dr. Pierce added another link
to his chain of good works by estab-
fishing a bureau of correspondence to
which any one can write for medical
advice, without any expense whatever,
and if necessary, medicines especially
prepared in Doctor Pieree's Laboratory
will be sent by parcel post or express
for use at home, at a reasonable cost.
Thus those who have symptoms of dis
ease need not suffer mental agony fear
ing that they have some serious ail-
ment, but can have a diagnosis made
free by physician of high profess
sional standing. Write to DR.. Pierce
relating syour symptoms if you sneed
medical advice for any chronic disease.
All letters regarded as confidential.
