Dr. PIERCE'S
S Golden Medical
DISCOVERY
Cawaa ftloety-aight par cant of all
mM of Comumptha, la all Ita
, Earlier Stage.
AHhoufb by many believed to be Incurs
tie, there it the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stage 9, consuruptiou is a curable
.." disease. Not every case, but a large per.
Ctnlagt of casts, and we believe,V ol
nrcent. are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden
edical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
N "' cough with copious expectoration (includ
. log tubercular matter), great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do yon doubt that hundreds of such ease
reported to us as cured by " Golden Med.
ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease ? You need not take
our word for it i They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
trial of "Golden Medical Discovery,"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
nd various preparations of the hypophos
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
, lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 160
pages which will be mailed to you, on re
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.

Stocks snd Itonds.
New York, Dec. l.-Stocks today were
more active, the sales footing up 264.M5
shares. The business was also better dis
tributed than of late, the railways tor the
nrst time In weeks figuring prominently in
the dealings. Manhattan was ths special
card, rising from 108 to 107 on extensive
covering of short contracts. Nothing of a
definite character developed except that a
long outstanding short Interest had taken
fright and covered up. The spurt of activ
ity tn Manhattan affected the bears In
other railway issues and there was a gen
eral covering movement all along the
line. In the rise which followed the Gran
gers, anthracite coalers and the Vander
bllts were most conspicuous and Improved
anywhere from M to 2 per csnt. The (In
dustrials were feverish throughout owing
to sales to reallxe profits. Chicago Gas
rose to 714 and receded to 70Ua70l4. Sugar
was weaker and on moderate trading re
ceded to lOSHalOS'i. In the closing deal
ings Manhattan, which had run off from
U7 to 106, returned to 107, and the whole
market left off firm. Net changes show
advances of ViaS per cent., Manhattan
leading. Sugar lost '4.

ON THE VERGE
Of Giving Up the FightAn El.
mira Citizen's Last Resource
Proves a Success.
From the Elralra Gaxette.
Do you know Mr. J. S. Bodder, of S14
South Main street ? He has been a
business man and permanent resident
of Elmlra for over twenty years. A
man whose statement cannot be dis
puted. Well, Mr. Bodder's case in a
nutshell Is that he has been a sufferer
from kidney disorders, but doesn't suf
fer jny more. We will let fclm tell
what has brought about the change.
Here Is how he spoke of his case to our
representative: "I have never been
well since the closing of the war, where,
tn the service of my country, I con
tracted kidney and bladder disorders.
The complaint has gradually been
growing on me. I had sharp pains
in the small of my back, just
back of the hips, and when they left It
was only to be followed by a dull, heavy
pain which remained continually. I
could lie in but one or two positions In
bed or the pain would be almost un
bearable. I was always very sore
over the kidneys, and the urine emitted
a strong odor. At times I felt exist
ence a task. I tried this, that and the
other thing, to no avail, and was on the
verge of giving up entirely when I saw
Doan's Kidney Pills advertised. I
thought as a last retort I would give
them a trial; they were highly recom
mended, and I would ute Just this one
more remedy. I began taking them,
and I am very glad Indeed to give my
statement, that suffering humanity may
receive the same benefit I have. A few
doses of Doan's Kidney Pills satisfied
me they were helping me. Now the
pain Is all gone, and I am entirely well
this, after years of sickness. My
sleep at night Is good and refreshing.
I do not foel any more that tired feel
ing I used to on rising, all thanks due
to Doan's Kidney Pills."

all dealers. Price SO cents per box, six
boxes for 32.50. By mall on receipt of
