Yet the hot is fancy and th tferra is a fact. If the germ could be magnified to a size equal to its terrors it would appear more terrible than any fire-breathind dragon. Germs can't be avoided. They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink. The germ can only prosper when the condition of the system gives it free scope to establish it self and develop. When there is a deficiency of vital force, languor, restlessness, a sallow cheek, a hollow eye, when the appetite is poor and the sleep is broken, it is time to guard against the germ. You can fortify the body against all germs by the use of Dr. Pierce's Gold en Medical Discovery. It increases the vital power, cleanses the system of clogging impurities, enriches the blood, puts the stom ach and organs of digestion and nutrition in working condition, no that (he germ finds no weak or tainted spot in which to breed "Golden Medical Discovery" contains, no alcohol, "hiskv or habit-forming drugs.
