Peculiar People.

Old bachelors who never smoke. People who will suffer from chronic indigestion, constipation, and torpid liver, or “ biliousness,” when Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and Pleasant Purgative Pellets are known to be reliable and speedy remedies for these diseases. Old maids who do not love cats. People who have catarrh, annoying and disgusting every one around them, when Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy is known to be a potent remedy for this disease. Women who do not love babies. Women who will suffer from all those painful diseases to which the sex is heir, when Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is admitted by every lady who uses it to be an efficient remedy for these maladies. People who believe their progenitors were apes. People who will read about “Helen’s Babies,” and “That Husband of Mine,” and “That Wife of Mine/’ and “ That Mother-in-law of Mine,” and “That Son-in-law of Mine,” and yet fail to read about themselves in “The People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser.” Christians quarreling with each other on their way to heaven. People who will seek health at fashionable watering places, smothering at Saratoga or Long Branch,. or sacrificing themselves to “ Graham diet ” at Water Cures and Health Institutes, when the magnificent Invalids’ Hotel, at Buffalo, offers all the elegant oomforts of the finest hotels, combined with the best sanitary advantages—Russian, Turkish, and plunge baths, gymnasium, etc.—and is situated in and near some of the finest natural scenery in the Empire State. The most peculiar of all are the people who read these paragraphs and fail to profit by them.
