u kmw nr «rpmmiir.» The grim monitor, Death, wu stealthily approaching. I'couid almoat feel hla hot, «ery breath upon my forehead. My fajtbleaa goddess, Hygtia, bad utterly deserted me: Only now and then would Morpheus befriend, me, but on tbla auaplcl»ua day, ha had deigned to moisten my eyullda with heavenly ambrosia, and 1 slept. Aa 1 alept, behold, I had a d ream! I thought that 1 waa roaming upon foreign toll whither my physician had eent me to recover my health. I waa In a great metropolis—one of the grand marta of the world. In one of my atrolla I chanced to meet a man who had In hia hand a handsomely-bound volume, entitled “The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser,” and who said that he was an agent for the tale of the book. The title waa such a novel one that I waa Impelled to give the work a casual notice. Aa I hastily glanced over Its pages, I observed that It contained treatlsee not commonly found In medical works. But 1 had too many times been hoaxed by appearances, and I determined that I* would have nothing to do with It A voice within me, like a faithful mentor, whispered, “ Know thy opportunity; In that book Is thy salvation!” I began reasoning with myself. Although doubtful und distrustful, yet I put forth my hand to take the book, and, lot the agent was gone! I was miserable. In my agony I awoke. Great drop* of perspire*), tlon were upon my brow. By my bedside Sr as a friend who had called during my slumber to see me. Said my friend, “I have brought with me a book, Just published, which I thought might interest you." One glonco at the werk, and I was assured that it waa “ The People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser,” by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. T. Surely thU was the vet! table book which I had seen in my dreams. My friend loaned mu the work, and every day, aa my strength . permitted, I perused Its pages. Although ft contained very Interesting treatises on Biology. Cerebral Physiology, Human Temper, aments, Nursing of the Sick, etc., yet, being an invalid, I was most Interested in the subject of Diseases and Remedies. I believed that I had a liver affection, and yet more than one medical attendant had pro nounced my disease Consumption, and that I would fall with the autumn leaves. In that book I found my symptoms perfectly portrayed. I was then confident that I had not-decclvcd myself. I reasoned thus: “ Any man who can so truthfully depict my feel ings, and apparently understands my constitutional tendencies, must know just what my physical system demands. I will trust my case with Dr. Pleroe. I will take his Golden Medical Discovery as recommended for my disease.” The result is, that after having perseverlngly followed his prescribed treatment, I once again enjoy the blessings of health. Therefore, I would say to the afflicted, “Know tliy opportunity,” and take Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. - Quia.
