They sip the strength, destroy energy and Impoverish the blood. Ass result cl these sllments, the system gradu ally becomes disordered and the con stitution weikened so tint the body loses vitality and Is unfit to stand the strain of hard or continuous labor; thus, the victim offers a shining maik for kidney disease, lung trouble or the life-crushing malarial fever. An easy and certain means of warding off this condition ts within the reach of every one. PRICKLY ASH BITTERS the System Regulator, Is the remedy! A few doses whenever the digestion Is disturbed, or when the bowels fail to move regularly, will remove the diffc culty and stimulate the vital organs to better and more complete ftf foimance of their duties.

Its aching bones, Intlamed eyes, painful back and fever. Huts Its after iffects are perhaps even more to bo dreaded thnn the misery nttendent on nn attack of the disease Itself. Tho person who comes safely through an attack of the grip, man, woman or child, Is left In a condition of peculiar debility nnd prostra tion from which It Is difficult to rally. A slight cold or cough may find speedy termi nation lu lung dlseasd. Ordinary exposure results In pneumonia. The disease seems to deplete the vitality, undermine tho strength and effect tho balance of tho mind. It U ono of tho sad experiences of tho grip, thnt tho convalescent supposed to he rally ing well, has been found in n condition of cbmplcte collapse. As n result of tho grip tho lungs, nnd other organs of respiration seem peculiarly llablo to bo nffected ond consumption may easily bo tho after consequence of tho mnl ndy. It needs no argument therefore to urge tho building up of tho system weak ened by grip to ennblo It to resist and throw off these sequent diseases which so fre quently provo fatal In actual test Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has proved Itself peculiarly val uable not only In the quick euro of tho dl Bease. but also In rebuilding the body which grip haB undermined nnd In curing diseases which aro nrono to fasten on tho enfeebled system. It strengthens the Btnmach, heals the lungs, nnd purifies the blood. It puts th wholo body on n piano of sound and vig orous health. A VICTIM OF GRIP. "Two ycara ago this month I had an at tack of grip which left niy throat and lungB In bad condition," writes Mrs. M. E. Stew art, of Center, Chickasaw Nation, Ind Tor. "Tho doctor said I had dlseaso of tho bron chial tubes, but confessed to my husband (unknown to mo), that I had consumption In the first Btago and could never bo cured; but thankB to God and tp Dr. Pierce, today I feel well, and am better now than I havo been for many years. I can do as much work now as any woman of my age, which ts forty-sevon. Ono of my neighbor women advised mo to get Dr. Tierce's Ooldon Med ical Discovery, so I Bent and got It, and then I was not satisfied with It alone, hardly believing It would cure wo, so I wrote to Dr. Pierce nnd gave him my symptoms. He re plied that I had catarrh of tho head, ex tending to my lungs, and told what would cure me. I took his advice never neglect ed It for nnythlng. I have taken soveon teen bottles of 'Golden Medical Discovery,' eight vials of Dr. Pierce's Pellets, and ten packages of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.

HOW STRENGTH IS RESTORED. What makes me strong? Ask yourself that qu stlnn nnd you will find (hut the an swer will be, I nut mnde strong by food. How docs food make us strong? Ily pasting through the process of digestion and being converted into nutrition, which lu the form of blood, nourishes tho body. So that while blood Is the life of tho body, food Is tho life of tho blood. Every red vein and artery of the body leads like .a scarlet cluo back tu the stomach. If the body Is weak, therefore, we must look to the stomach first for tho cause of weakness, and then to tho blood. The same result of physical weakness will fol low tho opening of nn artery, or starvation. You may bleed to death or stnrvo to doath, This Ib so well understood lu tnedlcat prnctlco that tho first consideration of the physician In Investigating disease In tho condi tion of tho stomach, If tho stomach ts weak tho body ean' I bo strong. If the stom ach Is weak, thnt weakness will surely llnd nn echo In somo other organ dependent on tho stomach for Its nu trition such ns heart, llvur, lungB, kidneys, etc. If you starve n mother, you ntnrvo tho child nt her breast. If you starve tho stomach, you starve tho organs It feeds. Hut starvation of the body ran be accomplished even where food Is plentifully supplied because of the stomach nnd other arRnus of digestion nnd nutri tion uro diseased, then the food will not bo converted Into nutrition or only partly so, nnd tho body inadequately nourished will begin to grow weak. The first attempt, then, In dealing with n weak body Is to nourish It Into strength. Tho general method of this ntU-mpt Is to try nnd bring tho food down to the level of n wenk stom ach. This Is done by the use of prepared foods, cod liver oil, mid Its emulsions. Dut this doesn't euro the disease of the stom ach or put the organs of nutrition into a condition to build up the body. Dr. Plerco's Golden Medical Discovery deals directly with tho stomach nnd blocd. It seeks to bring tho stomach up to thn level of strong henlthful food. When this g jono t,0 i)0,iy K,ins In strength, puts on flesh, throws off dlscnsu and enterH on a new life. That these results follow th uso of 'Golden Medical Discovery' ts proved by tho testimony of thousands of weak run down men and women, and by their cure, by tho uso of 'Discovery,' of dscases of lungs, heart, kidneys, liver, etc., which originated In tho disease of tho stomach nnd Its allied organs of digestion nnd nu trition. "Three years ngo I had tho grip," writes Mrs. Tllllo Llnncy, of Gravel Switch, Ma rlon Co., Ky. "It settled on my lungs nnd tho doctor said I hod consumption. I took six' bottles of 'Golden Medical Discovery,' and am thankful to say I am entirely well." Sick peoplo nro invltod lo consult Dr. Pierce by letter, FREE.
