Come Now and Let Us Beason Together.
Why do people so frequently say to Dr. Pierce, “I suppose your Golden Medical Discovery cures everything?” Because it has been the practice of knavish charlatans to manufa-ture worthless nostrums and attempt to dupe the ignorant and credulous by recommending them to cure every form of disease. To such an extent has this been practiced that it is no wonder that many have acquired prejudices against aH advertised remedies. But Dr. Pierce does not advertise his standard preparations as “curealls,” does not claim that they will perform miracles, but simply publishes the fact that they have been developed as specifics for certain forms of disease for which he recommends them, after haying tested their efficacy in many hundred cases with the most gratifying success. It is a fact known to every well infoi med physician that many single remedies possess several diflbrent properties. Quinine, for instance, has a tonic quality, which suggests its use in cases of debility; an anti-periodic, by which it is efficacious in ague; and a febrifuge property, which renders it efficacious in c 'scs of fever. The result of its administration will also vary with the quantity given and the circumstances under which it is employed. So, likewise, the Golden Medical Discovery possesse bothpectoraJ and alterative, or blood-cleansing properties of the highest order. By reason of these two prominent properties itenres two classes of diseases. First, those of the respiratory organs, as throat, bronchial and lung affections, chronic coughs and asthma, and second, diseases of the blood and glandular system, in which affections all akfi ful physicians employ alteratives, as In cases of blotches, eruptions, ulcers, swellings tifmors, abscesses and in torpor of the liver or “ biliousness.” While its use is. by .Ks combination of properties, sugge ted in cases of pulmonary consumption, yet you need not take it expecting it will cure you if your lungs are half consumed, nor. because it is recommended as a blood medicine would its proprietor advise you to take it expecting it to cure cancer. It will not perform miracles, but it will cure many grave forms of disease. Everything about Sanford’s Radical, Curb fob Catarrh Invites confidence.
