Why Is It?

The truths of science and progressive thought have always been compelled to batter down the bulwarks of prejudice and disbelief, or remain forever unknown. Why is it that people are so reluctant to receive tacts that relate directly to the phenomena of their own existence! Astronomers, upon discovering a star, assign it a place at once, and it Is forever fixed. The rule by which a mathematical {iroblem is once solved becomes forever an nxom; but no matter how clearly the principles which govern health and sickness be demonstrated, some refuse to believe. Dr. Pierce’s Family Medicines, which arc now so generally used, and deservedly popular, were, in their early days, very reluctantly received by the people. To-day, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery lias outrivaled the old-time sarsaparilias, his pellets are in general use in place of the coarse, huge, drastic pills formerly so much employed, while the sales of his Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy and his Favorite Prescription are enormous. Where the skin is sallow and covered with blotches and pimples, or where there are scrofulous swellings and affections, a few bottles of his Golden Medical Discovery will effect an entire cure. If you feel dull, drowsy, debilitated, have sallow color of skin, or yellowish-brown spots on face or body, frequent headache or dizziness, bad taste in mouth, internal heat or chills alternated with hot flushes, low spirits and gloomy forebodings, irregular appetite, and tongue coated, you are suffering from Torpid Liver, or "-BiHoushcm." In many cases of "Liver Compiabd” only part of these symptoms are experienced. As a remedy for all such cases. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery has no equal, as it effects perfect cures, leaving the liver strengthened and healthy.
