Tbey were tied to the months of loaded cannon and blown in mutilated fragments into eternity, while a thrill of horror went (hfmtrh the oiTilized world. Mistakes and broken laws involve an awful penalty, and the moat vindictive men are not more cruel than Nature herself can be when her laws are violated. Every day we see man and women suffering al most the torment of the condemned as a penalty for breaking Nature's simplest laws. Mistakes and carelessness count as crimes before Nature's stern tribunal. Nature never forgives a mistake. Irregular habits, wrong food, over-work, worry, late hours, lack or proper exercise, negiecr 01 little precautions, are punished by the pangs of dyspepsia, shattered nerves and a wrecked and wasted constitution. But this misery and hopelessness are not forever fastened on those who are willing to come back and obey the laws which Nature has laid down. Her penalties are severe and inevitable, but her rewards are generous. She seldom pronounces a death sentence. Thousands of broken down men and women, who could not find either en couragement or cure in the medicaments of ordinary doctors have obtained a perfect restoration to health and strength by the use of Dr. Pierce's Oolden Medical Dis covery, simply because it put their entire physical being into perfect accord with Na- ) ture's law and brought them ner rewaras. This estraorainary uiscovery oegins its restorative and building up process in the human system at the same point that Nature begins her own work, that is, with the digestive and blood-making organs. It gives the entire nutritive organism power to appropriate the essential life -creating elements of the food that is eaten, and con vert them into healthy nutriment, firm muscular flesh and active vital force. Many little warnings are usually gives by Nature long before her most terrible punishments are visitea upon tuose woo disregard her regulations. When a man feels that something in his way of living has put him "out of sorts," even though hot seriously ill, he must know that he is to some extent a trespasser. If he has headaches or bilious turns ana periods When he doesn't feel like lifting a band or foot about his business, something is certainly wrong. It ought to, and can be set right lmmeaiaieiy oy me yoiucn Medical Discovery's " wonoenui tonic ana alterative properties. it clartnea icacancnn wiwu, the lethargic liver to rid the circulation of excessive bile : purges the system of the scrofulous and muddy impurities which render the skin unwholesome and un sightly; makes every nerve and muscle tingle with vivacity and life. The permanent strength -making quali ties of the " Golden Medical Discovery " are vastly superior to the temporary stimu lus of malt extracts. It is far preferable to nauseous emulsions. It does not aid the accretion of flabby fat; but eliminates inert useless tissue from the system, mak ing the flesh firm and wholesome, and bringing the weight to the normal standard of perfect health. Mrs. John Crorier, Box , Morristown, Bel moot Co., Ohio, writes : " My face was a solid mass of pimples or led spots and very sore. I commenced using Dr. Plerce'a Golden Medical tHscovery about the 3d of April ; I also uned his Pellets.' I was Just nearly crazy when I wrote to you. In from ten to twelve days my face was well. Dr. Pierce's medicines are worth more than their weight in gold, to me. My entire aytem is built up by them. My face fot well so fast that people came to ask what did."

It la perhaps impoieible by further discussion to settle tbe much disputed question as to the beginning of tbe 20tb ceolory, yet I desire to state the case on behalf of the 190i,er." that a jast bear iag may be had. Tb dispute biogC4 00 whether J699 years already have been completed, a oar opponents believe, or whether as the "190rers" believe, 1899 years will not be completed until tbe close of tbe pres ent year. II the latter is a true view. iLen 19 centuries aiii not be completed until the close of tbe Tear 1900. and the 20th century wi.l begin with the year iwi. 1 his wouid seem to be tbe logical view of the case. since tbe first 12 months of the Christtau era would be designated year 1, and one year would te completed ttta tbe close of vear one. two years would be completed with the close of year 2, three years with the close of year 3, and 1900 years or nineteen cen turies with tbe close of the vest ISrjO and the 20; h century would begin with 1901. h. 1901 CaASK. Tbe trouble aitb tbisreasordog is that it makes tbe start wtong. Tbe time be fore Christ is reckoned B C. therefore Christ was born 1 year after 1 BC. which would be 0, of course. If a per son was born Jao 1, IS00 bis time won Id date from thtn not from the completion of his first year on Jaa 1. 1801. Jan 1, 1900 will be 1900 fail years after Christ's birth tbe same aa it will be 100 eomo'et- ed years after tbe birth of tbe person nora Jan I, lfw, therefore tbe end of tbe nineteenth and the beginning of tbe 0U century.
