A FAMILIAR VERDICT.
" Killed Himself in a Fit of
Despondency."
A Thoory of Suicido Suetainod by
Medical Evidence.
Is there nny relation to be traced
between the iirevulenco of "stomach
trouble" und the prevalence of sulcldo
"while In a despondent state ot mind?"
That Is a question which only an ob
servont person would ask, but, being
asked, It suggests a very lmportnnt
field of Inquiry.
Every dyspeptic knows what It Is to
feel that dull oloud of despondency set
tle down on the mind ns.a fog settles
down cm tho sea or wraps Itself about
the mountnln climber. The blue Is
wiped out of the sky, tho grcn fades
from the grass, the sun 1b blotted from
tho heavens. There Is a sense of fear
and dread of Impending danger. Forms
seen through this fog ot the mind aro
magnified und distorted, looming largo
and threatening Uko spectre of the
Brocketi. It's a miserable feeling;
miserable for the sufferer, miserable
for his friends and for his family. Does
that condition ot depression ever come
to a man or woman without causing
tho cry in the secret heart,
I WOULD THAT I WERE DEAD?"
And If the condition becomes more
frequent, tho rifts in the fog more rare,
does not the thought of self-destruction
haunt the depressed mind? Like some
evil peeping face which flattens itself
against the window nnd wntches us as
wo eat, like evil eyes that burn through
the dnrkness of the sleepless hours and
hold the gaze in terrified fascination,
so tlrtu thought of self-destruction
haunts the despondent mind nnd, like
the ghost of Bnnquo, "will not down."
These nre fucts. They aro common
facts. Is It any wonder thnt some day
In such a fog of mind, haunted and
hounded by this one thought of escape
from a life ot misery, tho man sends
a bullet Into the aching heart und stills
It? lie may bo ilch, his family may
adore him. his friends may be legion.
But through the fog of this depression
he sees poverty stalking him. His
"foes are those of his own household,"
he thinks, und those who call him
friends nre plotting his ruin.
SUICIDAL DESPONDENCY
Is u common icsult of a dlsensed con
dition of tlie stomach and organs of
digestion nnd nutrition from which the
dyspeptic suffers. Thero is a relation
to bo traced between suicide from de
spondency and the despondent condi
tion of the ml ml so common to tho
victim of "stomach trouble" in some of
its forms. In the large correspond
ence of Dr. B. V. Pierce, chief con
sulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel
nnd Surgical Institute, Buffalo, . V.,
the feature of mental suffering Is al
ways prominent in the letters of those
who are seeking a cure from diseases
which affect the digestive and nutri
tive system. This will be noted In tho
letter which follows.
'"I was mulcted with what the doc
tors called nervous Indigestion. Took
medicine from my family physician to
no avail. In looking over one of Dr.
Pierce's Memorandum Rooks." writes
Mr. Thomas G. Lever, of Lever. Rich
mond Co., S. (.'., "I found my ease
described exactly. I wrote to you and
made a staement. You sent me a de
scriptive list of questions, also hy
gienic rules. I carried them out as
best I could, but I thought niyrelf In
curable, as 1 suffered so much from
pain under my ilbs nnd an empty fuel
ing In my stomach. At night would
have cold or hot feet and hands alter
nately. I was getting very nervous
and suffered a grent deal mentally,
thinking that death would soon claim
me. Always expected something un
usual to take place; wus Irrltnblo and
impatient, and greatly reduced In
flesh1. 1 could scarcely cut anything
that would nut produce n bad feeling
In my stomach. After name hesitation,
owing to my prejudices ugalitM patent
medicines, I decided to lr a few bot
tles or Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery am! 'Pellets.' After taking
.several bottles of each, found I was
Improving. 1 continued for six months
or more, off and on. I hive to be caie
ful yet, at times, of what l cat. In or
der that I may feel good and strong. I
fully believe If nny one suffering with
indigestion, or torpid ller, or chronic
cold would take Dr. Pierce.'s Golden
Medical Discovery und 'Pleasant Pel
lets' and observo a few simple hy
gienic rules they would soon be greatly
benefited, and with a llttlo persever
ance would be entlrly cured."
IT DOES NOT SURPRISE. US
to see some Implement made by man
do the work it was made to do. We'd
be surprised If It failed. Once In 1
while some ambitious Daiiu Green In
vents a flying machine thut will not
fly. Once In n while somo Kouly mo
tor r"fuses to "mote" to any practical
purpose. Bui for the most nart the
thing': contrived and Invented by man
do Just what 'they were inado to do;
tho saw eats Into tho resinous log, tho
rudder stcois the battleship, tho fuse
explodes the charge which topplea
down tons on tons of ore.
'Why should It bo nny wonder then,
that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery cures diseases of the stomach
and other organs of digestion and nu
trition? It was made to euro Just
these disease's und tho wonder would
be if It failed to cure. It Is not a cum
uli. It often cuies "liver trouble."
"heart trouble," "head trouble," nnd
many another 111 that troubles tho hu
man body. Hut It cures these forms
of disease remote from the stomach
because they really root1 In the stom
ach, When the stomach Is cured the
heart, liver, lungs, brnln and nerves,
whichever organ may be affected by
the stomach Is cured through th
stmnucli.
"Your kindness to me I can never
forget," writes Mrs. Josle E, Clark, of
Enterprise, Shelby Co., Mo. "I enn
not express half my feelings of grat
fulness to you. I hnd despaired of
oven getting well. 1 had been In bnd
health for twelve vears. Hnd aches nil
through me, numb hands, cola feet,
and everything I ato distressed me;
bowels constipated, wns very nervous,
depressed nnd despondent. In fact, I
can't express half my bad reelings to
you. When I first wrote to you I
thought I could never be cured. . I
have taken nix bottles of Dr. Plorce's
Golden Mtocllenl Dlrcovery, nnd my
health Is now good. You have my hon
est recomeiundation to all sufferers. I
think there Is no medicine In tho world
) us good ns Dr. Pierce's."
IT'S NO EXPERIMENT
to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery for the euro of diseases ot this
stomach and olhvr diseases originating
in a diseased stomach. The cure fol
lows almost us an arithmetical cor
tnlnty. It's nlmost as sure that "Got-
den Medical Discovery" will cure na
that two nnd two make four. We say
almost as sure, because ns a matter of
record two people In every hundred
do fall of a perfect cure. Hut the
ninety-eight people In that hundred
who use "Golden Medical Discovery"
fairly and faithfully are perfectly and
permanently cured.
Tho record of cures made bv Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medlcul Discovery
covers a period1 of more than thirty
years and the' treatment and cure of
more than half a million people. It Is
a notable feature of these cures that In
a laro proportion of cases they were
effected In men and women whom the
doctors had failed to help, and In many
cases abandoned to their fate. It Is
at this point that many tnke advan
tage of Dr. Pierce's offer of a free con
sultation by letter. Thousands of peo
ple who have not the courage to try
the "Discovery" wrlto to Dr. Pleice
and, encouraged by his reply, revealing
at once his understanding of the dis
ease and his sympathy with the suffer
er, they begin to take tho first step
toward health.
Sick people are Invited to consult
Dr. Pierce absolutely without fee or
charge. All correspondence treated as
strictly private and sacredly confiden
tial. Address Dr. It. V. Pierce, Buf
falo, N. Y.
It s to bo kept in mind that the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y., ranks both In Its appli
ances and Its staff with the best of
modern medical Institutions. As Its
chief consulting physlcan, Dr. 'Pierce
has :athered around him a staff of
nearly a score of assistant specialists
every man a physician of standing and
acknowledged skill. There Is ns fai
ls known, no similar institution behind
any other "put-up' medicine offered to
the public. It Is certain that thrfre Is
no similar offer of free medical ndvice
which has behind It 11 skill and expe
rience equal to that of Dr. Pierce and
his staff, or it record of success equal
to that achieved by Dr. Pierce In more
than thirty years of practice.
A TEMPERANCE MEDICINE.
The fact Is especially underscored
thut "Golden Medical Discovery" Is ab
solutely and altogether a temperance
medicine In the most extreme meaning
of the term temperance. It Is as free
from opium, cocaine and all other nnr
cotb's ns It Is from whisky and alo
hol In every form. In view of flic- fact
that fulse formulas of this medicine
have of lute 'been published, and Ignor
ant persons have been led by those false
formulas to doubt the truth of our
olnlm thut "Golden Medical Discovery"
Is a non-alcoholic and non-narcotle
medicine,
WE WILL GIVE $1,000.00
for each nnd every bottle of Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery which shows
a truce of alcohol or nnrcotlcs In lis
analysis. We commend this offer t.i
the tempernnco people of the country.
The cures made by the "Discovery''
aro a matter of record. We propose
that the non-alcoholic properties of the
"Discovery" shall bo a matter of record
also.
Thero is no substitute for "Golden
Medical Discover . " Let no mercenarv
merchant Impose on you with a reined v
which will pay him better but which
will not euro you.
