soon the trap snaps to; and he has some serious disease fastened on him.

The only sensible course is to keep away from the trap, and not-allow sickness to get any hold on you. It is a frightful mistake to trifle with indigestion and bilious troub- les in the belief that they will cure them- selves. On the contrary they drag the whole system down with them.

When the appetite and digestion are ir- regular it shows that the ‘machinery of the body is out of order and is not doing its proper work; the blood«circulation is poorly supplied and is being gradually debased by bilious poisons.

The proper alterative for this condition is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It acts directly upon the digestive functions and the liver; and enables the blood-mak- ing glands to ‘supply an abundance of pure bleed, rich with the nutritious vital ele- ments which build up healthy flesh and enduring strength.
