Is the fruitful cause of diseases of -heart. lungs, liver and kidneys, ami these diseases originating in the stomach are cured through the stomach by the use of "Golden Medi cal Discovery. Tin proof of the sound ness of this theory lies iu the variety and multiplicity of tlie. cures of "Gol den Medical Discovery." and the fact that the whole,' physical tone Is at once elevated by Its healiug and strengthening power.
