""Whon you come -- to tho cross-roads keep to the main traveled way." Thero's a sound logic in that advice which thoso who aro starting out in search of health might well heed. "Stick to tho main traveled road and you will come out all right" Many hundreds of thousands of people havo markod a path for you to follow. It has led them to health. This path, whioli they have trodden leads to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y., where Dr. Pierce, the chief consulting physician, and his staff numbering nearly a score of experienced and skilled specialists, aro every day engaged in the treatment and euro of chronic diseases. Much of the treatment is by correspondence. Any sick person is invited to consult Dr. R. V. Pierce by letter absolutely free of charge and undor the promise of absolute privacy. There is hope for everyone who begins the use of Dr. Pierce's treatment. Out of the many thousands treated, ninety-eight per cent, have been absolutely cured by Dr. Pierce and his staff of physicians A great number of those were the " hopeless " cases for which the home doctor said nothing could bo done People with weak lungs, obstinate cough, bronchitis, and other forms of disease which if neglected, or badly treated, lead on to ' consumption, have been positively cured through the advice of Dr. Pierce and his staff of skilled specialists, and the use of that marvelous medicine, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. "Sarah E. Taylor, of Eureka, Greenwood County, Kansas, writes: "I wish to say to you for the benefit of suffering humanity, I had been a 6ufferer for fifteen years nearly all the time; and in August, 1896, was taken with severe cramping pain in my stomach. The doctor here said it was due to gall stones. He relieved me for a short time, and then there was a hard lump about the Bize of a goose egg formed in my right side. It became so sore I could scarcely walk about the house, and I had no appetite. I consulted two of the best doctors in town and they said medicine would do me no good. I gave up all hope of ever- getting well again. One day I thought I would write to you telling you of my con dition. You told me I had enlargement of one of the lobes of my liver and the gall bladder, and advised me to take your ' Golden Medical Dis covery ' and ' Pleasant Pellets,' which I did according to directions. I had not taken more than half a bottle of each when my appetite camo back. Now it is a little over a year since I began to do my own work. I have taken seven bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and ceven vials of the ' Pellets, ' and am strotiger than I have been for five years." ' I was taken sick in July, last year, and was not abla to do any kind of work until November," writes Mr. Noel W. Orvin, of I,angley, Aiken Co., S. C. "Had been coughing up small, hard lumps of phlagm for about a year before I was taken down ; I then called on a doctor who attended me for two months, and said that one-hulf of my left lung was gone, and advised me to leave my home (Charleston, S. C), and go to the country, but did not say what sort of disease I had. I thought it was consump tion, and wrote to you for advice. I took four bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, which I sincerely believa has done me more good than any other medicines I have ever taken." Do not hesitate or delay if afflicted with any old, chronic, or obstinate disease. "Write to Dr. E. Y. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y., and tell him your story. It will bo treated as a sacred confidence, and you will promptly receive in reply an experienced physician's advioo and fatherly counsel, which will put you in the way of health, if your case bo a curable on. , & fiT e Ym. tin wsJl 1 .-Si C& ft tf N w. m rt 1 4 a 1 S s?1 9 s j P 5, v I' via av rc (BOWES OT&orara r tme stqmg pm$2ty ro the 8,L w Mlf, THE MARKETS.
