Dr. Pierce's [Classified ad]

The man who has lost a leg on the field of battle may find a fairly serviceable substitute in a crutch or a wooden leg, but the man whose lungs have been invaded by the deadly germs of consumption must act promptly or give up all hope.

There is no substitute for a destroyed lung, and there is no hope for lungs that are crippled, save in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Although sweet to the taste it contains no syrup or sugar, which so often disagrees with the dyspeptic stomach. It contains no alcohol to inebriate or create morbid craving for stimulants. It is the only known medicine that, acting through the blood, will build new and healthy lung tissues. It builds up the lungs because it builds up the whole body. It endows a man with the appetite of a football player. It puts strength and muscle into the stomach and intestines, and causes the digestive juices to flow freely. It fills the blood with the  elements that build up every organ and tissue of the body. It turns diseased lung tissue into healthy tissue by aiding nature in her own process of tearing down and  rebuilding. It cures bronchitis, weak lungs, bleeding from lungs and lingering coughs. It prevents consumption by curing the weakness that leads up to it. Honest druggists do not offer substitutes, and urge them upon you as "just as good." Below is one of the thousands who have testified to these facts.

Abram Freer, Esq., of Rockbridge, Greene Co., Ills., writes: "My wife had a severe attack of pleurisy and lung trouble; the doctors gave her up to die. She commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and she began to improve from the first dose. By the time she had taken eight or ten bottles she was cured, and it was the cause of a large amount being sold here. I think the 'Golden Medical Discovery' is the best medicine in the world for lung trouble. My wife is now using the 'Favorite Prescription' for 'turn of life.'"
