The life line is not an infallible oracle If it were I Medical Discovery " acts, is marked in the follow-
it would be wise to select our soldiers by the length
of the life lines in their hands. But the soldier
is selected on the basis of stature, strength and
stomach, for the stomach stands for the general
health and vitality of the man. A "weak" stomach
means a weak man, and a weak man won't do for
a soldier. A weak stomach means a weak man
because the body is nourished by food, and unless
the stomach and other organs of digestion and
nutrition are in sound health, the food will be im
perfectly digested and partially assimilated, and so
the entire body will be insufficiently nourished.
That is why no man is stronger than his stomach.
That is why "weak " heart, "weak" lungs, "weak"
kidneys and other forms of organic weakness are
often cured when the weak stomach is cured and
the organs are nourished into strength.
That is why Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery cures many forms of disease seemingly remote
from the stomach, by curing the diseased stomach
in which these other diseases had their origin. Dis
eases which originate in a diseased condition of the
stomach are cured through
the stomach.

and now I weigh one hundred and

The life and strength of the
body are entirely derived from ,
food. Whcu the digestive
aud nutritive systems are disordered or diseased, the
cbaunels by which the food supply must reach the
several organs of the body are partly obstructed.
Hence, the supply of nourishment falls below the
needs of a healthy, body, and' emaciation links itself
with disease."' The great flesh-makiug and body
building qualities possessed by Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery are due to the fact that it cures
the disorders and diseases of the digestive and
nutritive systems, cleans out the choked channels of
nutrition, and so opens the way for the perfect
nourishment of the body by food properly digested
and perfectly assimilated. It is food which builds
up the body, not medicine. No medicine can make
fleab. Flesh is made from food. "Golden Medical
Discovery " gives the weak stomach power to prop
erly digest the food provided, and enables the per
fect assimilation of the digested food. For these
reasons the "Discovery" is superior to cod liver oil,
emulsions, and invalid foods as a body builder, for
children'as well as man and women. It increases the
weight, not by puffing up the body with flabby fat,
but by building up the body with firm, healthy flesh.
The remarkable promptness with which "Golden
iug testimonial
"Your medicine helped me so much that I cannot praise it too
highly," writes Mrs. C. L. Brooks, of Poland, Androscoggin Co.,
Maine. "The first dose I took helped me. I cannot forget how
I felt when I took it , I was suffering everything with indiges
tion, and my stomach was so bloated that it seemed as though
it must burst. My husband said he was going fot the doctor,
but I said if he would get me a bottle of the rGolden Medical
Discovery ' I would try that. I had not taken it long when I felt
relieved, end have not bad a touch of indigestion or stomach
trouble since. I had been sick for four years and less than four
bottles cured mc. Some people that knew me before I begau
to take the ' Golden Medical Discovery ' tell me that they never
saw such a change in any one, and they also say they don't see
how I can do such large washings as I do now, when I had not
done a washing for so long."
The relation of other weakened organs to the
"weak" stomach is shown most forcibly by the
wonderful manner in which weak lungs are healed
by "Golden Medical Discovery." This is a medi
cine which strengthens the stomach and purifies the
blood. What has a medicine for the stomach and
blood to do with the lungs ? Answer that question
by asking another. What have the stomach and
blood to do with the lungs ?
Why everything. There's
no lite without blood, and
there's no blood without food,
and food is prepared for blood
making purposes in the stom
ach. It is evident, then, that
the " weak " stomach is inti
mately related to the weak
lungs. All phy
sicians recognize
this. For con
sumptives they
prescribe cod
liver oil and its
emulsions. This j
is a food and
nothing else.
Its use is an at
tempt to reach
the lungs
through the
stomach by in
creased nutri
tion. But this
treatment in
trying to reach
the weak lungs
does nothing for
the weak stom
ach, and there
fore attempts to
cure the fruit of
a disease with
out touching the
root of it, and that's why
the treatment fails.
"Golden Medical Discov
ery " heals diseases of the
stomach and organs of di
gestion aud nutrition, and
so increases the nutrition
of the body. It stimu
lates the action of the
blood-making glands so
that an abundant quantity of pure, rich blood is
supplied iu a vitalizing stream to the organs whose
life is blood.
People who have been given up by doctors;
people whose obstinate coughs, hemorrhages, night
sweats aud emaciation all told the story of diseased
lungs, have been perfectly and permanently cured
by the use of "Golden Medical Discovery."
BELWERED FFLOFI THE GRAVE.
"Some two years ago I was almost a helpless victim to that
dreaded disease consumption," writes Mr. Charles Fross, P. M.,
of Sitka, While Co., Indiana. "I was confined to my room for
several mouths ; my friends and neighbors had given up all
hope of my recovery, until one day a friend advised mc to take
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and after I had taken
the contents of the second bottle I began to improve. After
taking six bottles I wns, I honestly belioe, delivered from the
grave and entirely cured. I am now a strong and hearty man."
There is no alcohol in the "Discovery,," and it is
absolutely free from opium, cocaine and all nar
cotics. Accept no substitute for this medicine,
which is without an equal in the number and
variety of its cures. Insist upon the medicine
which cured others.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, March 6. Conditions were
mixed and the movement of prices was
very much confused on the Stock ex
change today. Sentiment Is correspond
ingly conflicting among tho speculative
contingent. The situation may bo de
scribed ns ono of war on the part of tho
believers in higher prices. Those having
fuith in a decline took advantage of tho
hesitation of the bulls and tho entire lack
of outside Interest In tho stock market
to mako vigorous attacks at vulnerublo
spots in the market. Tho results on tho
whole were f.ivoralilo to the. bears. They
wcro very diligent In socking out stocks
which were unprotected by supporting
orders and in offering them down below
tho price level where selling orders wcro
known to bo placed In the stocks for tho
purpose of saving losses on any sudden
decline Tho sudden fall In prices of the
stocks thus selected and equally sudden
and violent rallies gave the key to tho
character of this selling. The flurry In
the rate for call money In the late after
noon to 4 per cent, was a favoring factor
for tho bears, but the actual effect was
very small. The early tendency to ad
vance in the railroad list was called by
the maneuvers of tho bears, und the more
notable advances were about wiped out.
The railroad list yielded unwillingly and
only to a slight degree, in spite of the
very light demand und a fair sprinkling
of gains was retained at the close. Very
earnest efforts were made to weaken
Sugar, but the utmost that could be
achieved was a 3 point decline, offerliig
of tho stock being light. Third Avenue
was strong rising an eMreme hi nnd Im
parting sympathetic strength to tho
other lecal traction stocks. The most
notable examples of Iho bear tactics were
furnlnhed by the International Paper
Mocks, tho common falling i'tk and rnl
Hylng 2V and the prefered falling 7t
and rallying 4. I'resscd Steel Car which
dlropped CU and rallied S, American
Hoop, which tell 3j and rallied l',4.
Standard Rope and Its bond issues which
wero raided down from 2V4 to 8 points
with rallies extending fiom 1 to nearly 4
points, nnd People's Gas which fell l'.i
and rallied 2. Practically all the Iron
and steel stocks wero down from 1 to 2
points, and many iccoered a good por
tion of the loss, and there wero other loss
striking examples all through the list of
specialties. In tho railroad list St. Paul.
Burlington, Baltimore and Ohio showed
nn extreme decline of u pulnt or over.
Net changes In the rnllioad list are small.
Bulls are inclined to wait the final out
come of the currency bill. Tho largo
buying of government bonds by national
banks all over tho country and the ex
pert estimates which aro current of tho
profit offeicd on circulation by the now
provlilons aro the grounds of this confi
dence. Meantime the money market Is.
working constantly closer and the favor
able factors In tho outlook nre Ignored,
In the fear that tho available supplyo of
money will not bridge the intervul until
the expected relief. Total sales, 43U.200
shares. Tho bond market wns dull an-l
regular. Total sales, par value, $1,550,000.

sound and well. I am now giving It to
my other children."
Mr. Joseph Klrchonstelner, 87 Croton
street, Cleveland, O., says: "We have
used Pe-ru-na for eight years as our
family medicine. During tho whole of
that time we have not had to employ
a physician. Our family consists of
seven, and we always use It for the
thousand and one ailments to which
mankind Is liable. We have used It In
cases of scarlet fever, measles and
diphtheria. Whenever one of the fam
ily feel in the least 111, mother always
says: 'Take Pe-ru-na nnd you will be
well or If we do not .happen to have
any, 'We will have to get more Te-ru-na.'
Pe-ru-na Is always satisfactory In
colds and coughs."
Children are especially liable to acute
catarrh. Indeed, most of the affections
of childhood uro catarrh. All forms of
sore throat, quinsy, croup, hoarseness,
and laryngitis are but different phases
of catarrh. These affections, In tho
acute form, may pass away without
Mrs. H. H. Overmann.

treatment, but they leave a foundation
for chronic catarrh In later years. Even
a slight cold is acute catarrh, nnd ren
ders the mucous membranes of the
head and throat more liable to chronlo
catarrh afterwards. The child Is con
stantly assailed, winter and summer,
with catarrh. Affections of the stomach
nnd bowels, colic and diarrhoea, aro
due to catarrhal derangements of these
organs.
A great many families are learning
by bitter experience that these affec
tions must be promptly treated or the
child's health is permanently Injured.
Pe-ru-na is the remedy. No family
should be without It. As soon as the
symptoms of cold, cough, or any other
affection of the throat or stomach Is
noticed, Pe-ru-na should bo given ac
cording to directions. A vast multitude
of families are relying entirely upon
Pe-ru-na for safety in this direction.
That Pe-ru-na can be relied upon is
evinced by the great number of testi
monials which Dr. Hartman Is receiv
ing dally. Only a very few of these
can be published. Only one in a thou
sand. Every household should be provided
with Dr. Hartman's free hook on ca
tarrh. Sent free by The Pe-ru-na Medi
