When Con sumption fastens its hold upon a victim the whole physical structure com mences its decay. At such a period before the disease is too far advanced. Dr. Pierce's Goldon Medical Discovery will arrest and cun it sn .i. in stamps for a book (160 pages) on I Consumption and Its cure. Address! worms Dispensary Medical Associa tion, ijunaio, N. Y. Once used, Dr. Pierce's Pellets are al ways in favor. Specific for constipa tions, piles, biliousness and headaches. Dr. Conan Doyle arrived home to find hlrrsrlf roundly scored by the Lon don Medical Magazine for having re corded false and fictitious medical ex periences in "Round the Red Lamp" A scandalous breach of professional honor Is charged. THE KEYSTONE OF XHE ARCH In the edifice of health Is vigor, which means not merely muscular energy, but an active discharge of the various func tions, such as indigestion, secretion of the bile, the action of the bowels, the curculatlon of the Wood. Nothing more actively and thoroughly contrib utes to the united performance of these functions than the renowned tonic and regulator, Hostetter"s Stomach Bitters. The result of its use is a speedy gain in strength, together with the agree able consciousness that the tenure of life is being strengthened that one is laying up a store of vitality against the unavoidable draughts which old age makes upon the system. The forti fying influence of the Bitters constitute it a reliable safeguard against malaria, rheumatism and kidney trouble. Appe tite and sleep improve through Its use, and it protects the system from the ef fects of cold and damp. Colonel Seward Cary, the Buffalo mil lionalre and amateur whip who bought' me coaon Vivid, exhibited at the worlds fair, has arranged to run it between Buffalo and Niagara Falls next summer as a public coach. FOUR BIG SUCCESSES. Having the needed merit to more than make good all the advertising claimed for them, the following four remedies have reached a phenomenal sale. Dr. King's New Discovery, for Consumption, Cougns and Colds, each bottle guaranteed Electric Bitters, the great remedy for stomach, liver, and kidneys. Bucklen's Arnica Salve, the best In the world, and Dr. King's New Life Pills, which are a perfect pill. All these remedies are guaranteed to do just what is claimed for them, and the dealer whose name is attached here with, will be glad to tell you more of them. Sold at Chas. Rogeis' Drug Store.

HOPE CRUSHED TO EARTH Will rise again in the bosom of a dys peptic wise enough to substitute for the pseudo-tonics, which has bamboozled him out of his belief in 'the possibility of cure, the reail invigonanit and stomachic, HoeteCter's Stomach Bitters. The bil ious, the nervous, the dyspeptic, the rheumatic alike derive speetiy benefit from this healthful botanic medidne. .Persons suffering from Indigestion will gain no positive, permanent good from the fiery, unmedioaited diiimtulamts of commerce, too often used recklessly. The Bitters is immeasureably to bo preferred to these as a tomic, since Its Dure basis is modified by the con Junotion wtsh it of vegetable inerredi ents of the highest remedial excellence. Malaria is prevented and remedied by tt, and it infuses vigor into the weak and sickly. A wlneglassful three times a day is the average dose.

Calllouette, Druggist, Beavers ville, 111., says: "To Dr. King's New Discovery I owe my life. Was taken with La Grippe and tried all the phy sicians for miles around, but of no avail, and was given up and told I could not live. Having Dr. King's New Discovery In my store I sent for a bot tle, and began to use It, and from the first dose began to get better, and after using three bottles was up and about, again.

THE UNEXPECTED DISCHARGE OF A CANNON Close by would not have a more dis turbing effect upon the nerves which are vigorous, than an ordinary noise upon tlhosA which are weak and un strung. As a nervine, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Is unrivalled. By pro moting digestion and assimilation they overcome that gastric disorder, which Is the most prolific cause of nervous debility, and WbTcn, so long as it exists, defeats In & large measure the action of sedatives and opiates. Such reme. dies, moreover, necessitate the use of increasing doses, and finally cease to act altogether, except in dangerous quantities. They never reach the foun tain head of the trouble, and quiet the nerves only by eeml-piaralyzing them. Equally objectionable are fiery unmedl- cated alcoholic stimulants. Kidney, bladder and liver trouble, malaria, con stipation, and rheumatism are relieved by the Bitters, which also promotes appetite and nightly repore. We are so vain as to set the highest value upon those things to which na ture has assigned the lowest place. Seneca. ALL FREE.

Rochefoucauld. THE INFLUENCES OF CLIMATE ON, HEALTH. It cannot be denied that Influence of climate upon health is great, and it is in recognition of this fact that physi cians send patients suffering with pul monary diseases to great distances for "change of air." But when the sufferer happens to be too poor to act uoon the advice his lot is hard indeed. But Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery can be had at any medicine store, and to it thousands whose cases were con sldered desperate owe their lives. Up to a certain point in, the progress of consumption, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a positive remedy. But delay is dangerous with consump tion. In all the conditions that lead to it, the "Discovery" Is the remedy. With severe lingering coughs of weak lungs nothing acts so promplty. Every di sease that can be reached through the blood yields to this medicine. The scrofulous affections of the lungs that's called consumption Is one of them. For this, and for every other form of scrof ula, for all blood-taints and disorders, and all chronic bronchial, throat, and lung affections, the "Discovery" Is the only remedy so certain that, once used. It is always in favor. Can anything else be "Just as good" ror you to buy? Don't you believe It, Make thy recreation servant to thy business, lest thou become a slave to thy recreation. Queries.
