The more complicated your disease has become, the greater the number and diversity of symp toms. No matter what stage it has reached. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Hledic«i Discovery will subdue it, if taken according to direc tions for a reasonable length of time. If not cured, complications multiply and Consump tion of the Lungs. Skin Diseases, Heart Disease, Rheumatism, Kidney Disease, or other grave maladies are quite liable to set in and, sooner or later, induce a fatal termination. Dr. Pierce’s Golden medical Dis covery nets powerfully upon the Liver, and through that great blood-purifting organ, cleanses the system of all blood-taints and im purities, from whatever cause arising. It is equally efficacious in acting upon the Kid neys. and other excretory organs, cleansing, strengthening, and healing their diseases. As an appetizing, restorative tonic, it jiromotes digestion ana nutrition, thereby budding rp both flesh and strength. In malarial districts, this wonderful medicine has gained great celebrity iu curing Fever and Ague, Chills and Fever, Dumb Ague, and kindred diseases. Dr. Pierce’s Golden medical Dis covery CURES ALL HUMORS, from a common Blotch, or Eruption, to the worst Scrofula.

CONSUMPTION, which is Scrofula of the LnngR, is arrested and cured by this remedy, if taken in tlie earlier stages of the disease. From its mar velous power over this terribly fatal disease, when first offering this now world-famed rem edy to the public. Dr. Pierce thought seriously of calling- it his “Consumption Cure,” but abandoned that name as too restrictive for a medicine which, from its wonderful com bination of tonic, or strengthening, alterative, or blood-cleansing, anti-bilious, pectoral, and nutritive properties, is unequaled, not only as a remedy for Consumption, but for All Chrouic diseases of the Liver, Blood, and Lungs. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, Short ness of Breath, Chronic Nasal Catarrh, Bron chitis, Asthma, Severe Coughs, and kindred affections, it is an efficient- remedy.
