Habit-forming Medicines. Whatever may be the fact at to many of the so-calJra patent medicines con taining Injurious imrredieritii as broadly published In some journals of more or leas influence, this publicity has certainly been of great benefit In arousing needed Attention to this subject. It has, in a considerable measure, resulted Id the most Intelligent people avoiding suet foods and medicines as may be fairly sus pected of containing the injurious Ingre dients complained of. Recognizing tlilf act some time ago, Dr. Tierce, of buffalo, I. Y., "took time by the forelock," as it were, and published hrosdcaxt all the ingredients of which his popular medi cines are composed. Thus ha has com pletely forestalled all harping critics and aJl opposition that might otherwise be Brged against his medicines, because they are now of known composition. Fur thermore, from the formula printed on very bottle wrapper. It will be seen that these medicines contain no alcohol or ther habit-forming drugs. Neither do they contain any narcotics or injurious gents, their Ingredient being purely vegetable, eitraeted from the roots of medicinal plants found growing in the depths of our American forests and of well recognised curative virtues. Instead of alcohol, which even In small portions long continued, as In obstinate eases of diseases, becomes highly objec tionable from It tendency to produce a ravrog for stimulant, Dr. Pierce sm ployi chemically pure, triple -refined glycerine, which of itself Is a valuable remedy In many cases of chronic diseases, being a superior demulcent, antiseptic, rntlferment and ingaiorting nutritive, t enhances the curative action of the Golden 8eal root, Htone root, Black Cherrybark and Wood root, contained In Golden Medical Discovery," In all bron chial, throat and lung affections attended with severe coughs. As will be seen from the writings of the eminent Drs. Grover Cos, of New York; Bartholow, of Jeffer son Medical College. Phila.; Scuddor, of ClnelnnaU: Elllngwood, of Chicago: Bala, of Chicago, and others, who stand a leaders In their several schools of practice, the, foregoing agent are tht very bat Ingredient that Dr. Pierce could have chosen to raaka up his fa mous "Discovery" for the cure of not only bronchial, throat and lung affec tions, but also of chronic catarrh la all Its various forms wherever located.
