The coming anil going of the "odsbods' "gad zooks" drama, with its clashing steel, its swashbuckling and impossible situations, have not disturbed the equa nimity of the real live, Hesh and blood drama as exemplified in "The Old Homestead." Time and varying condi tioos of dramatic taste have been una ble to interrupt its successful vogue and from reports the capacity of tne thea tres everywhere is the rule for this fine old play.

WICK BUILDING. MODERN MISERS. Hen Who Starve Themselves to Accumulate Money. There is a certain fearful fascination about the stories of the misers of the past. The money they accumulated was of no more practical value to them than the trinkets stolen and secreted by some magpie or jackdaw. They hid it from the sight and use of men and in silence and secret gloated over the useless wealth. To gather it they litfed on crusts or offal, grudged clothes to cover them and fire to warm them, lived ktarved lives and in not a few cases died of starvation. That was the old-time miser. The modern miser resembles this man of the past in the particular that he frequently dies of starvation. In his eagerness to gather money he pays small heed to the claims of health. He eats anything, anyhow, anywhen, and anywhere. He doesn't eat crusts by any means nor spare his purse to fill his stomach. The mistake he makes is in thinking that when a man has filled his stomach, that is the end of the bnsi ness of feeding. Instead of being the end of feeding it's only the beginning. There is no value in food unless it is digested, converted into nutrition and assimilated. These processes depend upon the healthfulness of the stomach and the other organs of digestion and nutrition. When these organs are dis eased they cannot extract the nutrition from the food received into the stomach and the body becomes weak through lack of nourishment. One day this "weakness" begins to find a special de velopment in some chief organ, heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, etc., to which the man succumbs. The doctor's certificate reads "heart disease," "kidney disease," as the case may be. But the real reading of the certificate should be: STARVED TO DEATH. The truth of this statement is appar ent The body is sustained by food digested and assimilated. But the body is made up of its parts and organs, and when the stomach is «weak," digestion imperfect, and the nutrition extracted from food inadequate to the needs of the body, tht result is shared by every part and organ of the body. For this reason no man is stronger than his stomach, and no organ sustained by the stomach can be stronger than the stomach. Therefore when we hear of "weak" stomach we are pretty sure we are going to hear in time of " weak " heart, " weak" lungs, "weak" kidneys, or weakness of some other organ of the body dependent on the stomach and its associated organs of digestion and nutrition. Now these things being true whe« a man has heart " trouble," liver "trouble," Subscribe for the CITIZEN. kidney "trouble," etc., where is the fiiM place to look for the cause of the dis ease? Why. where else can it be but the stomach ? The most probable causa of these forms of " weakness " is defici ent nutrition resulting from the "weak* condition of the stomach and othet organs of digestion and nutrition. And if these diseases of heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, etc., begin in the stomach they must be cured through the stomach. IT'S AN EVERY DAY AFFAIR to receive letters reporting the curt of diseased kidneys, weak heart, torpid liver, or lung " trouble " through the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Di»- covery. But one may say, "'Golden Medical Discovery ' is a medicine for the atom* ach and blood, in particular." Exactly so. And that is why it cures diseases repiote from the 6tomach but which have their origin in disease of the stomach and other organs of digestioa and nutrition. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov ery cures diseases of the stomach .and digestive and nutritiv* systems. The food taken into the body is then con verted into nutrition which is supplied to heart, lungs, kidneys, and other organs which ar« made strong by nutrition. Disease is thrown off. New strength comes to every tissue and fiber at the body. "I Buffered for fou* years with pain in my stomach so that at times I couldn't work nor eat," writes Mr. Frank Snath, of Granite, Chaffee Co.,Calo. " I wrote to you about mjr sickness ana wms told to use your medicine, which I did with good results. I only used four bottles of your 'Golden Medical Discovery,' and must sav that I am entirely cured, and feel like a new man, and I can highly recom mend your medicine to any sufferer." " 1 was troubled with malarial fever of about three yean* standing and was under doctors' cars for quite a time," writes Mr. J. F. Kidd, of Parmleysville, Wayne County, Ky. "They bad"almost given me up, and my suffering was very great. My pulse was weak, breath short and I had severe pajns in back, head and legs. Had palpitation of heart, and from June ist, 1895, to May ist, 1898, I was not able to do a day's work. I purchased five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and before I had finished taking the first two bottles I was very much better of my disease of three years' standing. I continued taking the medicine, ana by the time the fifth bottle was gone I was a well man. I can cheerfully recom mend Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery to any similar sufferer." "In 1898, one of my daughters was suffering on accottat of a severe cough, hectic fever, wasting of flesh and other symptoms of diseased lungs," writes Rev. Joseph H. Fesperman, of Barium Springs, Iredell Co., N. C. "I promptly gave her Dr. R. V. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery with gratifying success, and she now enjoys excellent health. This ex perience caused me to recommend Dr. Pierce's medicines to my neighbors, who, without exception, need them with fa vorable results. This being'tnie, I here by heartily endorse your medicines." SIMPLY GRAND. "Your book, the 'People's Common Sense Medical Adviser,' is all that one could wish," writes Mrs. S. J. Simpson, of 151 South Fourth Street, 9an Jose, California, " and more than could be ex pected in one volume. It is simply grand, and should be in every home."
