' "Milk for babes but meat for men."
When a man can no more eat a man's
food, but exists on a milk and cracker
diet he is gone back to babyhood. Ke
ma}* be a big man but he has a baby's
stomach.
Cnwooc in 1if? 1arorp>1\r nn thp
... ."V- - ~
stomach. The man with the baby's
stomach finds himself also with a baby's
peevishness and perversity. He has the
baby's exaggerated personal sensitiveness
and jealousy. He is an annoyance
to his friends and an anxiety to his
family. No man can be stronger than
his stomach. A weak stomach argues a
weak man. And a "weak" stomach is
the common starting point of most of
the so-called " weaknesses " which affect
the great organs ? heart, lungs, liver,
kidneys, etc. How can it be otherwise
when the body and all its organs are
dependent on the stomach for their
nutrition? The "weak" stomach drags
the organs down with it, because being
weak it is unable to convert food into
nutrition, and the organs of the body
being starved, of necessity become weak,
as a consequence of starvation.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discover)''
cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion aud nutrition. It
makes the weak body strong in the only
way physical strength can be made,
which is by food, properly digested and
assimilated. The cures of " weak " lungs,
" weak " heart, " weak " or sluggish liver,
"weak" kidneys, etc., which follow the
use of "Golden Medical Discovery," are
all due to this perfect nutrition of the
body, the proof of which is the remarkable
gain 'of sound, solid flesh, which
invariably marks the cure.
"STOMACH TROUBLE."
"About ten years ago I began to have trouble
with ray stomach," writes Mr. Wm. Counollv,
of 535 Walnut Street. Lorain, Ohio. "It got so
bad that I had to lay off quite often two and
three da\rs in a week! my stomach would bloat,
and I would belch'up gas. and was in awful distress
at such times. *1 have employed and been
treated by the best doctors in this city but got
no help whatever. Some said I had cancer of
the stomucli, others catarrh, others dyspepsia,
I have bought and tried everything I saw advertised
for dj'spepsia and stomach trouble, but
continued to get worse all the time. About
twelve months ago I was in such a condition
that my friends had some fear about my recovering.
I called a doctor and lie found r.ie in a
very bad shape. Hands and limbs were cold
and dripping with cold sweat. He told me that
I had a very bad case of chronic indigestion. I
was uncier his treatment until ims spring (.1090;,
but did not improve any. By some way or
other I happened to get hold of a vial of your
' Pellets.' and I thought they helped me. It
was then I wrote to you for advice. You told
me that by my symptoms you thought I had
liver complaint and advised the use of your
'Golden Medical Discovery' and 'Pleasant*Pellets'
in connection. These medicines I have
taken as directed, and am very happy to state
that I commenced to get better from the start,
and have not lost a day this summer on account
of my stomach. I feel tip-top, and better than I
have for ten years.r
GAINED SIXTEEN POUNDS.
"It was twelve years ago that I derived so
much help from Dr. Pierce's medicines," writes
Mrs. Olive Stevens, of North Harvey, Cook Co.,
111. "I was afflicted with a scrofulous tumor in
the left side of my neck. It was fully as large
as a large sized walnut, and so painful that I
could get but little sleep at night. I doctored
with several physicians but received no benefit.
The tumor grew rapidly and became inflamed
and my general health became impaired.
"I grew very weak. One physician .said I
would be in consumption in a very short time.
Our home physician said I would have to have
the tumor removed, but afterward told my husband
that I had heart trouble and he would not
dare give me chloroform or ether, so he told me
to be very careful; gave me medicine but did
me 110 good. I went to Michigan, was there
three months, and while there took Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and used 'Lugol's
Solution,' as directed in your pamphlet. While
away I gained sixteen pounds, the tumor became
smaller, and less painful, and to-dav there
is not a sign of it. I feel confident I s'.*,ll never
be troubled with it again, vve think tiu-re is no
medicine like Dr. R. V. Tierce's, and we have
recommended it to a great many who have"
. taken it with very fa.vora.bU results.
"The 'Golden Medical Discover/' cured my
neck entirely."
