Time anil again we see voiine men Just arriviiiR at their legal majority, or having oarely passed it, suiidcnly stopped in a career full of promise. Disease has laid its hand on the limp I He who never took a thought (or him self must be careful now. He must lie careful about food and drink, careful about Ills clothing and his exercise. No more late hours or night air. No more athletics. His lungs are "weak." He has nn ominous cough, He has fallen away in flesh. When that cloud of consumption falls on a young man's life it darkens every- thing. The words of lore tile unsjMken 011 his lips. He CAtihot speak jow to the girl be hoped would shurt. ids ftilure. Middle ngctl men that have been under that cloud remember it still with a shiver. Hut the important fact is tl'.v.t there arc men who were once in danger from "weak" lungs who have grown strong again, married and brotnjlit up healthy families. HOW IT HAl'l'ltNlil). Tk ere is no chance about such cures. If only n few persons had been benefited, it might be said that they had exagger ated their danger or had only been suf fering from some common ailment. Hut when the cured are tiumbered by thou sands ; when the doctor's diagnosis was consumption ; when every symptom bore out that diagnosis weakness, emacia tion, bleeding of the lungs and these sufferers were perfectly nnd permanently cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, it must lie concluded that these cures are not of chance, but due to the healing power of .1 great remedy, for coughs, weak lungs, bron chitis, and like diseases, which if neg lected or unskillftilly treated, find a fatal termination in consumption. "I beg to state that I have used three liottlcs of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery since my correspondence with you," writes Mr. A. lf. Novotny, of New YorkN. Y. (Ilox 1437). "I feel that I am in need of no more medical assist ance. When I started to take yonr medi cine I had a regular consumptive cough, of which I was afraid, iintl everybody cautioned and warned me concerning it I was losing weight rapidly, was very pale and had no appetite whatever. Now my condition is changed entirely. I do not cough nt all, have gained eight pounds in weight, have recovered my healthy color, and my appetite is enor mous.

I'.RATITUDH WILL OUT. Gratitude, like murder, will out. You can't stillc it. To that is due the fact that there is so gte.it a m.is of tett tnotiy to the remarkable ctir.es effected by "Golden Medical Discovery." It is testimony which no one can" gainsay ; testimony indisputable and iniAM.ti'i.iUe. It conies from people of all classes and conditions, but in many cases fioni those who have found n cure in the use of "Discovery" when other medicines have failed to help, nnd often when physicians had pronounced the sufferer incurable. "1 took n severe cold which settled in the bronchial tubes," writes Rev. I'ratik Hav, of Nortouville, Jeftcmm Co., Knns. "After trying medicines labeled 'Sure Cure,' almost without number, I was led to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. I took two bottles and was cuicd, and have fcl J staved cured, "When I think of the great, iiuiu 1 uiiu 10 cnuuic, and the terrible cough I had, it seems almost a miracle that I was so soon relieved " That God may spare voit many years ami abund antly bless you is the prayer of vour grateful friend." I'here 13 ouctriking evi dence in almost all these testimonials, both to the actual diseased condition and its positive cure. That evidence is found in the loss nf Ilcnh, marking the wasting character of the disease, mid in the gain of flesh which marks the cure ' by the ur of "Golden Med ical Discovery." OA1NISU 39 POUNDS. "While living in Char lotte, N. C, your medicine cured me of asthma am? nasal catarrh of ten years' standing," w rites J. L. I.umsden. Ksq., of 22 1 Whitehall Street, Atlanta, Ga. "At that time life sas a burden to me, and nfter spending hundreds of dollars under numerous doc tors I was dying by inches. I weighed only 131 pounds. In twenty days after I commenced your treatment I was well of both troubles, and in tlx months I weighed 170 pounds antl was in perfect health. 1 have never felt the slightest symptom of either since. Am now sixty five years oid and in perfect health, nnd weigh 160 pounds. No money could re pay you for what you ditl for inc. I would not return to the condition I was In, in October, 1872, for Rockefeller's wealth." There is no alcohol in "Golden Med ical Discovery," anil it is free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics, Accept no substitute for the "Discov ery." Speaking by the record of the medicine, there is nothing else "just as good" for those who cough or have weak lungs, Persons who are suffering from disease in chronic form are invited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, free. All corre spondence is 'held as strictly private. Address Dr. K. V. Pierce, Iluffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce is chief consulting phy sician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Iluffalo, N. Y. He is assisted by a staff of nearly a score of experi enced physicians, and the success of his methods may be gathered from the fact that in a practise of over thirty years, and the treatment of hundreds of thousands of sick men and women, 98 per cent, have been perfectly and permanently cured.
