DAILY HEALTH MS
Good Health Is in Your Own
Hands
BY SAMUEL HAMILTON, M. D.
The man who said "People dig
their gruves with their teeth" ut
tered a truth that goes clear to the
bottom of the health question. Sup
pose you should take everything you
eat and drink for breakfast, every
thing you eat and drink for dinner,
everything you eat and drink for
supper, and mix all together in one
mass. It would surely be a dreadful
mixture to look upon. And yet
your stomach is obliged dispose of
that unsightly mass each day! Is it
any wonder so many people have in
digestion, dyspepsia, backache,
headache, bad blood, liver com
plaint, skin diseases, nervousness,
coughs, colds, catarrh, bronchitis
and goodness knows what else? Yes,
people dig their own graves with
their teeth, and before the end
comes they pass through one sick
ness or trouble after another. You
should be glad to know what Dr.
Pierce, of Buffalo, has placed in the
drug stores a medicine called Gol
den Medical Discovery that can be j
depended upon to overcome many
of the diseases named aliove. It
may seem Impossible for one medi
cine to do so much, but really the
whole thing is as simple as the fig--
ure 1. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery corrects the disordered
cdbditions in a sicßvstomach, aids
digestion, acts as a purifies
the blood. When this is None, away
go the diseases that are caused by
a sick stomach. If you are digging
your grave with your teeth, stop to
day. Correct your stomach disord
ers right now with Golden Medical
Discovery, and henceforth eat for
your health's sake. If you don't
know what foods are best fbr you,
write Dr. Pierce, lnvalids' Ho
tel, Buffalo, N. Y., and receive con
fidential medical advice without
charge.
Golden Medical Discovery is made
without alcohol or opiates, so any
body and everybody can take It with
safety. It Is put up both in liquid
and tablet form. Send Dr. Pierce
10c for a trial pkg., and see ' for
yourself how good it is. Try It now.

Relieve Your Indigestion
With A Laxative .i
Dyspeptics know that indigestion is accompanied by
constipation, and that until the bowels can be regulated as
they will act freely and naturally every day at a stated time,
swallowing dyspepsia tablets is of little use.
A great and growing number of sufferers from this trouble
find immediate and then permanent relief by the use of
a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold by
druggists under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin-
The laxative herbs act on the bowels and the pepsin and ex
tracts on the digestive tract, forming an exceptionally effective
laxative-tonic.
It is a combination that has been found wonderfully
helpful in indigestion, oonstipation, biliousness, headaches,
bad breath, belching and gas on the stomach. A small dose
is all that is required.
The druggist will refund your money ft it tail•
to do as promised. •
