tho recovered health.
But how is tho dyspeptic to bo cured? Tho prevalence of dyspepsia among tho American pcoplo
has brought a hundred medicines into tho market, each promising a cure. How is a man to dctermino
between tho real medicine and tho sham the one medicino that will euro and tho other medicines which
only abate the painful symptoms for a time?
Use horso sense. Buy medicine as you'd buy a horse. Yon don't buy a horso on promise, but on
performance. You don't want prophecy of what he will do, but history of what bo has done.
For thirty years and over tho people who have used Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for tho
cure of dyspepsia and other diseases of tho organs of digestion and nutrition havo been enred, and stayed
cured. It isn't one man's word, or one woman's. It's the word of thousands tens of thousands, hundreds
of thousands a whole army of men and women : "We wore cured of dyspepsia, 'weak' stomach, or other
diseases of the digestive and nutrivc system by 'Golden Medical Discovery.'"
A man may take a chance shot at tho target and hit the bull's-eye. That does not prove him
a marksman. But when a man never misses the target in thousands of shots, and hits tho bull'fl-oyo almost
every time, that's proof of marksmanship which cannot bo denied.
It's the same with " Golden Medical Discovery," It always helps. It almost always cures. It hits tho
target of disease every time. It hardly ever misses the bull's-eyo of a perfect and permanent cure.
It does not matter how chronic, the diseaso ; it does not matter how many medicines havo failed to
cure ; it does not matter what local physicians have said about tho incurability of tho diseaso ; because
" Golden Medical Discovery " bus cured in thousands of cases whero tho diseases wero chronic ; whero all
other medicines had failed and physicians had said a cure was impossible.
Begin the use of " Golden Medical Discovery " and you begin your euro. That statement is absolutely
warranted by the record of ninety-eight per cent, of perfect and permanent cures which stand to tho
credit of the "Discovery" in a period of test which covers over thirty years and includes hundreds
of thousands of cures.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseaso of the stomach and other organs of digestion and
nutrition. It cures diseases of heart, lungs, liver and other organs which seem rcmoto from tho stomach,
because many of the.se diseases have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and its associated
organs. When tho stomach is diseased tho nutrition of the body is generally reduced and tho blood
corrupted by fermented and putrified food.
The result is that the dependent organs grow weak from lack of nutrition and aro poisoned by impure
blood. When the " Discovery " cures tho stomach and its associate organs of digestion and nutrition it
cleanses the blood and strengthens the "weak" heart, "weak" lungs, etc., in the only way in which tho
body or its organs can be strengthened : by food properly digested and perfectly assimilated.
CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
"I will write and tell you what mysejf and family think
of your medicine," writes Mr M. M. Wardwell, of Linwooel,
Leavenworth Co., Kansas. "It will do all you say and
more. I was taken sick nine years ago with fever. Had
the doctor and he broke up the fever all right, but I took
diarrhea ritjlit away ; he couldn't cure it and it became
chronic, and then he gave up the case. I got so weak
with it, and had rirotruding piles so badly I couldn't lie
down, nor hardly sit up. excent in a chair with the bottom
out. Was that way two or three months: thought I would
'pass in ray checks,' but picked up
iUemoranilum Hooks one day, and saw your description ot
catarrh of the stomach. I thought it hit my case. We had
a bottle of Dr. Pierce's Goldcti Medical Discovery in the
house that was got for my mother. You recommend it for
catarrh of the stomach, so I went on taking it. The one
bottle nearly cured me. I went to town and the druggist
was out and could not get it for three weeks. Then I was
-i .- . .-
as bad off as at first. I got two bottles
one and one-half and was well. I
wit 11 diarrnea since. Your medicine
ana me doctor cost me lourtcen dollars.
"Last summer my wife had chills and fever; had three or
four doctors attend her. Late in fall she took three or
four doses of pills and hasn't had chills since. Was at town
to-day, and she said, 'Get a bottle of pills Pierce's, or
none.' "
