ALL FLESH IS GAS I THE biblical statement, "All flesh is grass," is the poetical presentation of man's frailty. The scientific statement, all flesh is gas, is only the practical presentation of the same truth. Says n scientific authority: "Solid as our body is, it is mostly made up of gases oxygen, hydrogen, nitro gen, chlorine and fluorine. There is enough gas in a man to fill a gasometer of 3. 649 cubic feet. In a man weighing 150 pounds the weight of oxygen is no less than 106 pounds, and the natural bulk of it were it set free would be equal to a beam of wood one foot square and nearly a quarter of a mile long, or several hundred times the bulk of the body it self. Measured by the gallon this compressed gas liberated from the body would fill 202 36-gallon barrels. Even bulkier though lighter is the con stituent hydrogen. Every man's body contains enough of this lightest of all substances to inflate a balloon that would lift himself, balloon and tackle. It is about twenty times the bulk of the body con taining it." MARVELOUS MAN. It is only in the light of such facts that we are able to appreciate the profound truth of the state ment that- "we are fearfully and wonderfully made." A man fool ing around a powder maga zine with lighted matches is tak ing less risk than the average man takes every day with this body of his. Oxygen gas is by far the most important cle ment in human flesh and bone. Without oxy gen there is no life. In certain forms of disease it might be said that there was slow combustion of this oxygen going on which if not stopped would terminate existence. In the disease called consump tion, for in stance, the very term itself indicates the slow burning up of the life. This fever heat, the flaming scarlet of the cheek, the burning eyes, associated with this disease are all symbols as well as symptoms of the slow con suming fire which is burning up the vital force. There is no disease more terrible than tliis diseare we call consumption. There is no triumph in med icine more magnificent than to put out that slow consuming fire of disease. This is the crowning triumph of Dr. Pierce's Golden iMedical Discovery. It has cured thousands of cases of " weak " lungs,, bronchitis, obstinate cough, hemorrhage, emacia tion and feebleness, which neglected or uut-kiilfully treated would have found a fatal termination in consumption. " I take pleasure in sending vou this testimonhl," writes Mr. Will II. Whitmire, of Arlcton, Rockingham Co,, Vn "and to tender you my heartfelt thanks for the restoration to health of mv son, A. P. Whitmire. through the use of your ' Golden Medical Discovery ' and ' ric-is.mt Pellets.' "He contracted a deep cold about the first of Jnlv, 1S99, and had a terrible cough. We called a doctor ami he pro nounced it irritation of the bronchial tubes, with asthmatic trouble, and he informed me that my son was hablf to dw anytime. He told me that if we could keep the bronchial tubes open, he might cure him; but after treating him sev eral weeks and my son growing worse all the time, I con cluded to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and neasani reueis.- 1 nact seen several miraculous cures I nut just In receipt of n letter from him from which I quote: ' I am well nnd hardy nnd getting very fleshy.' "I sometimes wonder to myself why the whole world doesn't use Dr. Pierce's medicines nnd get well. The neigh Jors all knew the condition of my boy, and they nil said he had consumption, nnd would not live n month, nnd the doc tor told some persons nftcr I commenced the use of your medicine that my boy had quick consumption ntul would have to die. "If you wish to use this in nny way you arc at liberty do so, with uiy full name and address. The fire of disease cannot be put out by water. But it can be put out by another fluid blood. Wood is life. Hut blood is made from food. Be fore the food is made into blood it must be properly digested and perfectly assimilated. The processes of digestion take place in the stomach and its allied organs. A weak stomach must mean weak blood and weak blood means weak life. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It enables the perfect nourishment of the body. It increases the activity of the blood making glands so that a stream of rich, pure blood puts out the fire of disease. " I deem it my duty to inform you concerning the wonder ful tcstoratiou of my sister's health," writes Knte V. Reed, of 614 Tark Ave., Lafayette, Ind. "In February, 1898, 6hc was prostrated by an attack of pneumonia which (after several weeks) resulted in an abscess of the left lung. After the disease had progressed about five weeks, her physician gave her up, saying that she was going into con sumption, but it might be possible that ns spring ad vanced she would improve, but with the return of win ter the disease would renew it self and she could not possibly see nnother spring time. At this junc ture another sister, residing several miles distant, came to visit her, bring ing with her a bot tle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
