Your Neighbors Can Tell You No doubt, if you yourself don’t know, of many marvelous cures of Stomach, Liver, Blood and Skin affections that have been made by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, for it has a most successful record of over 40 years. These CURES embrace also many bad cases of Weak Lungs, lingering Coughs, Bronchial, Throat and Lung affections, some of which, no doubt, would have run into Consumption, had they been neglected or badly treated. We don’t mean to say that the “‘Golden Medical Discovery” will cure Consumption when fully seated, but it will strengthen weak lungs, improve digestion, and make pure, rich, red blood thereby overcoming and casting out disease-producing bacteria and giving robust, vigorous health.

The Inspiration of the Farm. A western newspaper which is conducting a country life boosting campaign has elicited this letter from Wm. J. Bryan: “T am very fond of country life. I lived upon the farm from the time I was six until I was twenty-three, al- though during the last six years of the period I was at school in the win- ter and on the farm only during vaca- tions. We now live about four miles for a winter home in Texas we chose road. While it is specially advan- tageous to children to have the out- door air and exercise that can be best enough in the quietude and whole- someness of country life to more thau compensate for the attractions of the ery, the electric car linet the good roads, the improved lighting systems, the bringing of water into the house turn the thought away from the city and toward the country.” A poll of men now prominently be- fore the public would show that easily a majority are either products of the farm or now own and for a portion of each year reside on a farm. Five of the nine cabinet advisers of President Taft were either born on farms or now have farm interests. Fully two-thirds of the United States belt represent their farmer constitu- ency, because they have had farming experience. The governors of most of the corn belt states are graduate farmers who know enough about practical agriculture to work in the field with the best of the help. - The fact of the matter is, the farm is a welcome haven of refuge to the man in public life. Tired of the stress and strenuousness of fighting for an existence wearied by the multitudin- ous cares of office, he lays down the burden, either temporarily or per- manently, and retires to the farm with a sigh of relief. There he finds rest and rebuilds wornout tissues. There he forgets for a time that there are things which once bothered him other than planting and reaping and that the world may be fed and cloth- clears and the problems which beset thought and a justness of conception which make toward the continued prosperity and righteousness of the nation. farm. statecraft, science, art and literature.

The greatest How Nature Provides, Our Beauty, Health and Happiness. Is it not possible, and altogether prob- able that elements necessary for the body-health are contained in the med- icinal roots found in the earth, digested in the plant laboratory of Nature and made ready for man or animal ? There is a get belief among scien- tists that the vegetable kingdom fur- | nishes us with the elements | for blood coeney | and to keep that deli- | cate balance of health that the human | animal is so apt to disturb by wrong | methods of living. Thus we know that we should get the phosphates from the | wheat in our bread—or some cereal foods, and iron from certain vegetables, | such as spinach ed yy If there is ill- then our best | method for recovering our standard | balance of health is to go to Nature's Laboratory—the plant which will | furnish the remedy. Buried deep in our forests isthe plant known as Golden Sage a the root of which Edwin M. Hale, M. D., Professor of Materia Medica at Habne- mann Medical College, Chicago, states "In relation to its general effects on the om, there is no medicine in use about which there is such general un- animity of —s It is universally rded as tonic useful in all de- bilitated states.” Dr. Hale continues: "Prof. John M. Scudder says, ‘It stim- ulates the digestive processes, and in- creases the assimilation of food. B these means the blood is enriched, an this blood feeds the muscular system.’ ‘I mention the muscular system because I believe it first feels the increased power imparted by the stimulation of increased nutrition. The consequent improvement on the nervous and glandular systems are natural results.’” Stillingia or Queen’s root is another root which has Wer been in repute as an alterative (blood purifier) and Prof. John King, M. D., says of it: “An alterative unsurpassed by few if any other of the known alteratives; most successful in skin and scrofulous affec- |tions. Beneficial in bronchial affections —permanently cures bronchitis—relieves irritation—an important cough remed: —coughe of years’ standing being cared, Aids in blood-making and nutrition, and may be taken without harm for | long periods.” early forty years ago, Dr, R. Y. | Pierce of Buffalo, N. Y., combined an extract of the two above roots, together with that of Stone root, Black Cherry- bark, Bloodroot, Mandrake and Glye- erine—into a prescription which he put up in a ready-to-use form, and called Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Tt was most successful in correcting and curing such ailments as were due to stomach and liver derangements, followed by impure blood. _In cases of weak stomach, indiges- tion, dyspepsia, ulceration of stomach or bowels, torpid liver, or biliousness, the “Golden Medical Discovery ” has never been excelled as a tonic and in- vigorator which pute the affected or- gans “in tune” and enables them to perform their proper functions. hee aleceuve and tonic is indicated when you have symptoms of headache, . in net ge all over.” ir appe e, tongue ad taste in mouths foul breath when you feel weak, tired, blue and discouraged, then is the time to take this natural restorative of Dr. Pierce.
