Common snse teaches that a man should B3t over woiii or ovu woiiy: that he should tidce ample time fur his mcaK for resting and for recreation and deep; that he should not neglect the little ills of life, because Ihey are the precursors of serious and fatal n afadies. Chemistry has enabled men to make combinations of drugs that were im possible in the days of the alchemists. Medical science has taught when, how and why these combinations of drugs should be used. Dr Pierce s Golden Medical Dis covery is the most valuable of all health restoring medicines, and the most effective. Its t.t work is upon the fountain head of life the stomach. A man who has a weak and impaiied stomach and who does not ! properly digest his food will soon find that his oiiHKi nas Decome weak ana nni.over- lsnea, ana mat ins whole uody is improp erly and insufficiently nourished. This medicine makes the stomach strong, facil itates the flow of digestive juices, restores the lost appetite, makes assimilation per fect, invigorates the liver and purifies and emiebea the blood. It is the great blood maker, flesli-builder and nerve tonic. It mates men stron? in bod v. active in mind and cool in judgment. 1 JLtr "lumkt flrbby fat',bu.t,lid. i muscular flesh, nerve force and vital tn- ergy. All medicine dealers sell it.
