of Consumption U
Mopped short by Dr.
Pierce's Golden lied-4al-
Discovery. If
you haven't waited
beyond reason,
there's complete rc
coycry and care.
Although by many
believed to be incur
able, there is the
evidence of hundreds
of living witnesses to
the fact that, in all
its earlier stascs. con-
sumption is a curable.
disease. Not every
"cenlage of cases, and
'we Deitcve, luiiy s
'nor cent, ore cured
by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
even after the- disease hes progressed so
far as to induce repeated bleedings from
the lungs, severe Hnrcringr cough with
copious expectoration (including tubercu
lar matter), great loss of flesh and extreme
emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
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 They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the bust
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, ail 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 cither utterly failed to bsne
fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
nd various preparations of the hypophos
suites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a lare number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, natural, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been

Of Giving Up the FightAn El.
r.iit-u Citizen's Last Resource
Proves a Success.
From the Elmlra Gazette
Do you know Mr. J. S. Iiodder, of Sit
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 ;ny more. We will let him' tell
what has brought about the change.
Here Is how he spoke of his case to our
representative: :l have never been
well since the closing of the war, where.
In 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 svall, and was on the
verge of giving up entirely when I saw
Doan's Kidney Pills advertised. I
thought as a last resort I would give
them a trial; they were highly recom
mended, and I would use Just this one
more remedy. I began taking thum.
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 1s good and refreshing.
I do not fetU any moro that tired feel
ing I used to on rising, all thanks duo
to Doan's Kidney Pills." ,

all dealers. Price DO cents per box, six
boxes for $2.50. By mail on receipt of
