Natural Selection.

Investigators of natural science have demonstrated beyond controversy, that throughout the animal kingdom the “survival of the fittest” is the only law that vouchsafes thrift and perpetuity. Does not the same principle govern the commercial prosperity of man? An inferior cannot supersede a superior article. Illustrative of this principle are the family medicines of B. Y. Pierce, M. D., of Buffalo, N. Y. -By roason of superior merit, they have outrivaled all other medicines. Their salo in the United States alone exceeds one million dollars per annum, while the amount exported foots up to several hundred thousand more. No business could grew to such gigantic proportions and rest upon any other basis than that of merit. It is safe to say that no medioine or combination of medicines' yet discovered equals or can compare with Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, for the euro of ooughs, colds, and all pulmonary and blood affections. If the bowels be constipated and liver sluggish, his Pleasant Purgative Pellets will give prompt relief; while his Favorite Prescription will positively, perfectly, and permanently, cure those weaknesses and “dragging-down” sensations peculiar to females. In the People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser, an illustrated work of nearly one thousand pages, the Doctor has fully discussed the principles that underlie health and sickness. Price $1.50, post-paid. Adapted to old and young, single and married. Address B. V. Pierce, M. D., World's Dispensary and Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y,
