"The Way to a Man's Heart is Through His Stomach, " niYSIOLOOY THROWS NEW LIGHT ON THE OLD SAYING. It is popularly held that what the sun Is to our solar system, the heart Is to the human system, tho center of life nnd energy. And so, coined In our common speech, arc a multltudo of sayings, which recognize In the heart tho center of mental, moral and physl cnl life. Thus we speak of tho "dcslro of tho heart," of heartache and heart break. Wo say of a man ha is n hearty man nnd that he Is a hearty e.iter so associating both cordiality and nppo tlte with tho heart. Perhaps It Is but a natural result of this view that the Instant the heart Is affected, off. we go to tho doctor, no matter what the fee. We suffer all sort's of pains In tho stomuch. We endure much from tho torpid liver. We put aside the thought of danger to tho lungs, by saying: "Oh! it's only a cough. It will go away after a time." But when the heart gives an uncommon pul sation, or when It beats too quickly, or seems to miss an occasional beat, nothing will do but an Immediate ex amination. Yet physicians affirm that organic disease of the heart Is rare. Perhaps only once in a hundred times wnere there Is derangement of the heart Is It found to be clue to a disease of the or gan Itself. In tho other nlnoty-nlno cases it is functional. Functional dis ease of the heart means that the func tions of tho heart are Interfered with by an abnormal or diseased condition of some other organ, and this organ is generally the stomach. Through the sympathetic and pneu mogastrlc system of nerves, which are distributed to the heart and stomach in common, the heart at once sympathizes with any disturbance of the stomach. The great organs of the body are de signed to occupy a certain spare In the cavity of the trunk In which they nre so nicely arranged. When the stomach is over-distended by eating, or when indigestion causes the gas from the fermentation of half digested food to Inflate that organ, tho stomach extends outside its allotted bound, tho heart Is encroached upon and crowded, and then follow short ness of breath and Irregular, palpitat ing action of the heart. Now in ninety-nine cases out of ono hundred, supposed heart disease is functional nnd curable, and In pvery such case no other medicine will so quickly effect a cure as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It Is an axiom that diseases which originate In the stomach must be cured through the stomach. It Is In line with this axiom that the "Golden Medical Discovery" works Its logical and legitimate cures. By strengthening the stomach, by pro moting the flow of tho digestive Juices, the digestion Is Improved, tho stomach restored to its normal condition of health, nnd the functional disturbance of the heart thereby corrected. Thous ands of people who believed they had heart dlseas have heen radically cured by tho "Golden Medical Discovery." It cures indigestion or dvspepsla, weak ness of the stomach and all affections pf tho nutritive system, except cancer of the stomach. Among the commonest symptoms of these derangements and weaknesses of the digestive nnd nutritive systpm are frequent attacks of bilious or sick headache, bitter taste In the mouth, tongue coated white or covered with a brown fur, "backache" and tired feel ings, lassitude and a sense of debility. There Is generally depression of spirits nnd a decided tendency to be discour aged, nnd despondent; there Is loss or Irregularity of appetite, uneasiness or undue fullness In region of the stomach after eating, sometimes sour stomach, "heart-burn." nausea and "water brash," flatulency, and acrid or sour eructations or "risings" soon after eat ing: the bowels become Irregular, usu ally constipated, and occasionally sub ject to diarrhea, attended with colicky palnr. Not often Is there any pain ex perienced In the region of the llver.but It is sometimes accompanied with "sldeache." Tho foregoing symptoms are not all likely to he present in any one case, nor nre any two cases alike in overy respect. "I never took any medlcino that did me so much good as Dr. Pierce's," writes Mrs. Sophronla McCrea, of Cas tleton, Hartford Co., Md, "When I wrote to you I was suffering from such a pain between my shoulders I could not draw a long breath at times, and had a soreness across my shoulders and breast upon rising in the morning, I suffered off and on for flight years, trying different physicians and asking different doctors what caused this, but with no satisfactory results. I took medicine, and at last I said I would not take atiy more. I couldn't even do light work with any ease, nor do much of any thing that caused mo to bend over; couldn't Bleep at night, had ter rible headaches and numbness In my arms and hands. I was taken with a pain around my heart while eating din- I! Ulf P-VlM i It . 7 1 .. vV 1 III fl AV fitemWfflS&inK nor ono day but thought It would pass nwayj It did not however, so I felt compelled to call In tho doctor. Ho said 'Why you have no heart trouble. I said it must bo I could not Ho down my heart beat so (as I called It) through my head. Ho left me medlcino and It lulled the pain for about three weeks. The pain annoyed mo nt times for twenty-one nights; I had not slept nor did I want much to cat. All I seemed to want was rest. Some said I was too stout. I weighed 195 pounds, height G feet, forty-four years old, mother of four children. Ono day I was making the flro and I picked up a piece of paper out of ono of your books nnd It described my case so closely I thought I would try Dr. Pierce's medicine. I handed It to my husband nnd ho said. 'Well you might try it, it It Is not like all the rest.' I sent to the drug store and got a bottle; I took two doses and slept good that night. 1 kept on taking It. I did not take quite six bottles of the 'Gold en Medical Discovery' until I felt like a new woman. People wero surprised, for my neighbors knew how I had suffered." Such results ns these are not obtain ed by stimulation. There Is no nlcohol In "Golden Medical Discovery," nnd It contains no whisky or oth er stimulant. Tho secret of Its healing power lies In Its prompt and powerful ac tion on the stomach, tho organs of digestion and nu trition nnd the blood-mak ing glands. Another specimen case is that which follows where years of suffering could have been saved by a time ly use of the "Discovery." "Six years ago my stomach and heart troubled me so much I had to do something, as the doctors could not help me," writes Mrs. S. A. Knapp, of San Jose, California. (Box-392). "I went to San Francisco and had treatment and was better for some time, then It came back. I then used Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and 'Pleasant Pel lets.' These medicines cured my stomach. I do not have the pain and Indigestion as I did. It Is very hard for me to tell you what I suftered be fore I commenced taking your valuable medicine. I recommend It to all the sufferers whom I meet." Although sweet to the taste, "Golden Medical Discovery" contains no sugar or 3yrup and does not favor fermenta tion, but tends to check it. Its sooth ing effects are promptly felt aid ac knowledged by the Irritated organs, good rich, red blood Is produced, the nerves are nourished and become quiet, the body puts on muscular flesh, lurk ing poisons nre cast out of the circula tion and the entire systm is establish ed on a plane of sound health. For more than thirty years. Dr. R. V. Plorco has been chief consulting physician to the Invalids' HotPl and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N. Y. He invites tho sick to consult him by let tor, absolutely free of charge. Write in the fullest confidence. Every letter Is held as a private communication and treated as sacredly confidential. Write without fee and without fear. Self Interest prompts tho dealer sometimes to offer a substitute as "just as good" as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medi cal Discovery. If It Is only "Just as good" there's no object In taking an untried medicine In place of one with a record of countless cures. Thero Is nothing mndo by an even trade and no boot. The medicine should be better than "Golden Medical Discovery" to induce you to purchase it. Tho record shows that there Is no better medicine for all diseases of tho stomach and nutritive system, or which hae their origin In faulty digestion or mal-as-simllatlon than the "Discovery." So if the dealer offers "something better" you can be sure he means better for himself and not for you, because it pays a better profit, "Never look a gift horse In the mouth" is a saying which does not np ply to Dr. Pierce's generous gift of his great medhnl work The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser.
