ON THE FARM.
There's many a successful business
man who sits in bis citv office and lets
his mind slirt hark to hi liovhnnri Hv
on the farm. How good It felt to live '
Whut an app- he had I How good
everything tastt I How sound his sleep
was I How eagerly he rose with the sun
and raced with him through the long
day. And now he's a successful man.
But he can t sleep, lie doesn't eniov
his food. His stomach is weak, hi'i
nerves are shaken, and he no more rises
with the sun to race eagerly against him.
His vitality is low ond now and again
his heart seems to plunge in his breast
as if it would break loose. That's the
price he has paid for success.
The mischief of the whole business if
that he buys "tablets" of one sort or
another to "aid" his digestion, and in
dulges in bromides and other nerve
stimulants, just to hold himself together,
and wonders why he seems to be getting
worse.
The whole trouble with such a man
generally lies in v. hut is called a "weak -stomach.
The food he eats does not
nourish him because it is only partially
digested aud assimilated. No man can
be stronger than his stomach, because it
is in the stomach and allied organs of
digestion and nutrition that strength is
made from the food which is eaten.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery cures diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
It restores the strength of the body in
the only way strength can be restored,
by food which is perfectly digested and
assimilated, when the diseased stomach
(with its allied organs) is cured of dis
ease. It is a blood making, body-building
medicine, inasmuch as blood is made
from food and the body it built up by
blood. It is not a stimulant, containing
neither alcohol or any other narcotic.
NO OTHER DOCTOR FOR ME.
" La pring-, early, I wrote you my feelings
and condition, "na.va Mr. A. J. Vandcrwatcr, 871
Wnt Division Klrcrt, Chicugo, III., "and you
advined me to take l)r Pierrc'a Golden Mnlicl
Iliacovcnr (a few hotllm), anil then writa yon
now I felt. I am happy to aay I am grlting to
feci fine. In all I have takeu t bottlra of the
' Discovery ' and four or five viala of the little
I-elleta.' They have don me worlda of good.
All my frienda lay : ' Vanderwater, how well
rou are looking. What in the world havevou
been doing I I tell them I have been doctoring
with Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. ' Why"
they aay, 'you haven't been there f No, I

wrought the great change in me. Frura a alow

nd aick all the time, and could do no work :
to man who can work, aleep. eat, and feet
fine, and that tired reeling ia all going awny.
I am very thankful that I wrote to Dr. pierce.
Hia 'Golden Medical Discovery' and hia little
liver 'Peileta' have almost made new man
of me. I feel young aa I did at thirty yeara.
No other doctor lor me, only Dr. Pierce.'

Every one has a hereditary right to a pure blood supply, which insures
a strong, healthy body ; but how many do we see who have inherited that
preatest of all misfortunes, Scrofula, and are struggling under a legacy of
disease and suffering? Scrofula is a constitutional trouble handed down
from parent to child, a curse from generation to generation as long as the
scrofulous matter is allowed to remain in the family blood. As the very
foundation of the blood is diseased we see this awful aflliclion manifested
in many ways, such as enlarged glands or tumors about the neck, which
often burst and become discharging ulcers, weak eyes, chronic Catarrh of the
head, skin diseases, etc. This blighting disease being so firmly intrenched
in the blood often attacks the bones, resulting In White Swelling, or hip
disease, while a pallid, waxey appearance of the skin, loss of strength, and
often lung affections show that the disease is entirely destroying the rich,
nutritive qualities of the blood. There is but one way to cure Scrofula nnd
that is to purify the blood and rid it of the germs of disease, and for this
purpose nothing equals S. S. S. Its purifying ond builtling-up properties
PURELY VEGETABLE medicine, mai!6 from roots, herbs and barkt
young or old. It So thoroughly removes the poison from the blood that no
aigns of it are ever seen again and posterity is blessed with a pure blood
