Gentlemen—Before taking the "Discovery" I would have four or five bad coughing spells every day and would cough up mouthfuls of solid white froth, and before I took one bottle it stopped it. I could not walk across the room with the pain in my back and sides; but soon the pain was all gone, and I could sleep well at night. My general health is much better since I have taken the "Golden Medical Discovery" although I have been obliged to work hard on a farm.

Gentlemen—I had pain in lungs and across the chest; had been spitting blood for the past six years. Menstruation was scant and caused great prostration. Suffered from constipation; cutting pains about the stomach and rumbling in the bowels; exceedingly nervous; indigestion. She writes as follows: "I wish to inform you that I am well. I never can praise you or your ways of treatment enough. I shall bring you all the patients that I can. I feel so rich to get my health back. I can eat well and sleep well, and work all day. I suppose you will think it took a long time to pull me up, but I was very low, much worse than I ever told you of at the time. I was not able even to feed myself any more. My husband had to undress me. I could not wash my own face, or stand alone. I did not lie down to sleep for eleven months; I always had to sit up, because I would choke if I laid my head down.I have not raised a drop of blood since your treatment, and I did it always for five years before. Our minister said this spring that he had never thought I could live, and says that he advises every one that is sick to go to you. He was so surprised to see how strong and well I was. My relatives all think that you ought to write my case up for the papers in Chicago. I can never repay you for what you have done for me. A thousand thanks is but empty words. My husband was telling a man just last week, "do not spend all your money in Chicago, as we did, and then write to Buffalo, but go and write now, and your wife will soon be well." My father was saying that he wished the doctors that gave me up could see me now. I think they could not believe their own eyes. I am astonished when I think back how I was six years ago; I could not walk across the room alone for three years, and after taking your treatment for eighteen months, I amcompletelywell. I can hardly believe it myself when I read over those letters that I received from you. I work hard every day. There is never a day that you are not remembered. I hope that you may live many years to do for others what you have done for me. I had this taken so that you might have my picture as I am now; I wish you could have seen me as I was then, and I wish to thank you for those little notes of inquiry that you used to send to find out how I was getting along, which showed that I was remembered not only while the money lasted, but that you cared for me after that."

Gentlemen—Last August I was taken sick of a fever and was confined to bed for nearly six months. I had four doctors to see me, but it just seemed to me that they could relieve me for only a short while. I had a bad cough and all thought I was going into consumption. After being sick for so long, my nerves were nearly exhausted and my stomach, liver and bowels refused to act, in fact, my whole system was completely wrecked. I could not rest nor sleep, unless influenced by some drug and at last, mother concluded to try your medicines on me. She had taken them about a year before and had been greatly benefited by their use, so she said I will try the last resort—for I had been given up to die.

I began taking your "Golden Medical Discovery" and "Pleasant Pellets." I improved rapidly—was soon able to be up in my room, and to my surprise, I could eat a little of nearly everything I desired. Before I began the use of your medicines, I could eat nothing in peace; I would almost cramp to death, even when I took a little cold water.

But after the use of four and a half bottles of your "Golden Medical Discovery," and two vials of "Pellets," with God's help, I have almost risen from the dead.

I will cheerfully recommend your remedies to my afflicted friends, for I am to-day, well and strong as ever. You can use this among your testimonials, if you choose, with my greatest approval.

Gentlemen—I had bronchitis for twenty years and over, and I could not work without coughing so hard as to take all my strength away. I took five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and give you my word and honor that I can do any work that there is to do on my "ranch" without coughing. Sometimes in the winter when exposed to the change in the weather, I have a slight attack of coughing. Remember, I have not taken any of the "Golden Medical Discovery" for a year.

Gentlemen—I was troubled with bronchitis for over two years, had severe cough and great difficulty in breathing; appetite was poor and suffered from indigestion, became very weak and despondent. My age (I am now 71) was against me. I was treated by two physicians but they did me no good. I then used four bottles of your "Golden Medical Discovery" and was entirely cured, for which I am very thankful.

Gentlemen—Something over a year ago I wrote to you about my lungs. I used Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery besides using Iodine and mustard paste.

That pain in my lung entirely left me, and I have not felt it at all since last August. The doctor who lives here and who has always treated me thinks it is a great cure. Words cannot express my gratitude to you. I am now able to do a good day's work.

I had chronic sore throat, hoarseness, sore chest, rheumatism in my arms, and was very much run down. The doctor here at home said one lung was affected and that I had symptoms of consumption.

Gentlemen—When I commenced taking your "Discovery" I was very low with a cough, and at times spit up much blood. I was not able to do the least work, but most of the time was in bed. I was all run-down, very weak, my head was dizzy, and I was extremely despondent. The first bottle I took did not seem to do me much good, but I had faith in it and continued using it until I had taken fifteen bottles, and now I do not look nor feel like the same man I was one year ago. People are astonished, and say, "well, last year this time I would not have thought that you would be living now." I can thankfully say I am entirely cured of a disease which, but for your wonderful "Discovery," would have resulted in my death.

Gentlemen—Three years ago I was so sick I could not eat, sleep or walk, for I coughed all day and night. My weight was reduced from 150 to 127 pounds. The first night that I slept four hours at one time, was after I had taken three doses of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. The offensive matter expectorated grew less every day and when I had taken the whole of one bottle I could sleep all night without coughing, and have been well ever since and weigh 178 pounds.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

Gentlemen—Some twenty-five years since I was feeling very miserable all summer; I was very bilious; sometimes my bowels would not move once in sixty or seventy hours, and then almost impossible. I would take some bitters, which would help to move the matter, but as soon as the bitters were gone, I had to buy more or I would be as bad as before, and sometimes worse; but none of them appeared to do me any good except to move the bowels, until thirty years since a druggist called my attention to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and before I had taken half a bottle of the "Golden Medical Discovery" I felt much better and by the time I had taken all, I could eat three hearty meals per day and had not felt so well for a long time. Soon after I was called to do a job some miles from home, and one night the old lady there was speaking about her daughter, (Mrs. Brooks) who had been under the doctor's care for five months and did not get any better, and I learned by asking a few questions that she had no appetite, and no ambition to do anything. Then I told her what the "Golden Medical Discovery" had done for me. The next day the old lady drove down to her daughter's, and got Mr. Brooks to send to Rutland—ten miles away—for two bottles of the "Golden Medical Discovery," and the next day the doctor came, and when about to take leave, Mr. Brooks told the doctor he did not want him any more at present and would send for him if necessary. I saw the old lady about ten days later and her daughter was improving, and Mr. Brooks had great faith in the "Golden MedicalDiscovery," and had not sent for the doctor, but had gone to Rutland for more of the "G.M.D."

When I commenced taking the "Golden Medical Discovery." I thought I was going into consumption as had a cough for three years or more and my weight decreasing. My weight before taking the "G.M.D." was 133 pounds; last March it was 147 pounds, and I give the credit to the "Discovery."

Gentlemen—I had complicated chronic disease for several years—throat and lung and other affections, which almost resulted in consumption. Our doctors could do me no good. I happened to get hold of some of Doctor Pierce's books, and was induced to try his treatment. To the surprise of myself and family, I was, in a short time, changed almost to a new person—from pale sallow complexion to the bloom of health again. Many thanks for restoring me from an untimely grave. I will say to the public it is not always necessary to go to the Institute; I was treated at home with success. I cannot speak in too high praise of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, "Pellets" and "Favorite Prescription." I think they will do all that is claimed for them.

Gentlemen—For some time I have been troubled with a severe lung and bronchial disease, following a severe attack of pneumonia. Was raising a great amount of pus, had severe night-sweats and was very much prostrated, when I was induced to visit Dr. Pierce's Invalid's Hotel and Surgical Institute for examination. After having a full statement of my case, I paid for one month's treatment in the Sanitarium and during that time was fully restored to health. I can not speak too highly of the physicians, and this famous Institution.

I take great pleasure in making my cure public and in highly recommending this Institution to all afflicted. The Staff of Physicians and Surgeons is skillful and of large experience, and I feel confident that all the benefit that can possibly be obtained from medical treatment, can be obtained at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute.

Will you please accept a few lines from me thanking you for your skill in preparing your medicines and placing them within reach of the suffering. I have a daughter, Miss M.H. Snead, who has been very low, was almost given up by two physicians, who treated her with their best skill, and did not receive much benefit. She was first attacked with pneumonia and pleurisy in very bad form and was then taken with a very bad cough, which kept growing worse and worse, until finally it seemed as though she had consumption very bad. The physicians prescribed Cod liver oil, but to no benefit. Mrs. Miller, a neighbor of ours, recommended Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to me with very strong faith, as she had been in the same condition and was cured by its use. I procured two bottles and she grew better. She hasn't felt any return of lung disease in over twelve months. She was nothing but a skeleton when she took the first dose, and to-day she weighs 135 pounds. I thought it my duty to write to you in regard to her case, as so many other medicines had failed, and it has acted like a charm.

Gentlemen—I am happy to inform you that after consulting you by letter and two months' trial of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, I am enjoying a better state of health than I have for some time. I have had weak lungs for several years—at times spit up blood. In January, 1893, I took a severe cold, which settled on my lungs—had a very bad cough, it seemed as if my lungs were swollen; could not expectorate much at a time, very hard to get up; suffered much with pains in my chest; was reduced in flesh and became very weak.

Physicians prescribed for me but I found no relief until I consulted you. It seemed I was going into consumption very fast. I have as good health now as could be expected. I am fifty-seven years of age and able to work on my farm, and feel under many obligations for your kind advice. Also my stomach was out of order, suffered with burning in my stomach and chest. I have no burning nor pains in my stomach and chest now.

Dr. PIERCE:—I will say this to you, that Consumption is hereditary in my wife's family; some have already died with the disease. My wife has a sister, Mrs. E.A. Cleary, that was taken with consumption. She used your "Golden Medical Discovery," and, to the surprise of her many friends, she got well. My wife has also had hemorrhages from the lungs, and her sister insisted on her using the 'Golden Medical Discovery." I consented to her using it, and it relieved her. She has had no symptoms of consumption for the past six years. People having this disease can take no better remedy.

Gentlemen—About seven years ago I was taken with sore throat and tried some home remedies, and it grew worse; and then I went to a doctor here in town, and after trying his remedies for three or four months, which did me no good, then I tried Dr. —— remedies; and still I grew worse for two years when I wrote you about it. You advised me to take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and his "Pellets," according to directions, and they would cure me, and so they did after taking eight bottles of the "Discovery," and the "Pellets" to keep my bowels regular. We now take the "Discovery" and "Pellets" for all our aches and pains, and think there are no medicines half so good. We use no other.

Dropsy, Sick Headache, Dyspepsia and Bloody Piles.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

Illustration: Mrs. Knavel.Mrs. Knavel.

Gentlemen—In the winter of 1881, I became irregular in my monthly courses. Of course at first I paid but little attention to it, hoping it would amount to nothing and probably wear away. But I slowly but surely grew worse, and at last resolved to apply to the doctors for help. My water came often, and in small quantities, and with great pain, and with red brick-dust deposit. I was attacked with severe womb trouble, bloody piles and dropsy of the ovary. I was treated by five different doctors. I was compelled to wear an inside support for a year, but it still seemed impossible for me to get well and I began to feel exceedingly alarmed and very uneasy, not knowing what course to pursue, or what the consequences might be. I had heard of Dr. Pierce, and concluded to make one more trial, so I sat down and wrote a letter to him, stating matters as near as I could, and in due time I received a favorable reply; then I commenced with his medicine. I commenced somewhere in February 1891 with the "Golden Medical Discovery" and "Favorite Prescription," in alternate doses. A strange occurrence followed. My limbs felt like what we call "asleep," and I felt as if I were in a strange land and wondered what was going to take place. I kept on till I took nine bottles. The first relief I felt was from sick headache, which I had been troubled with for many years; I was also cured of a very bad cough which I had been troubled with for many years, and of dyspepsia of long standing. I was entirely cured of a very singular and severe itching on my back, between my shoulders, which our doctor's called winter itch and which they pronounced incurable. I had suffered with this for twenty years; it would come in the winter and go away in the summer. I was also cured of the worst form of bloody piles and of womb disease. At present I feel like a new person.

When I first commenced with Dr. Pierce's medicines, I could not walk halfa mile without a pain. The other day I walked to Mercersburgh post-office, a distance of twelve miles, and the next day walked back again, and felt no bad results from the Journey. I am now 51 years old.

Mrs. Knavel further writes, that "To any person desiring to know more concerning my case and its wonderful cure, and who will enclose to me a return self-addressed and stamped envelope for reply, I will be pleased to write further information."

Gentlemen—I was very low—almost given up by two physicians who treated me with their very best skill and did not receive much benefit. I was attacked with "La Grippe" in December, 1891, and pleurisy, and was taken with a very bad cough, which kept growing worse. The physicians prescribed Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil, but no benefit. In June, 1892, I bled from the lungs; everybody thought I would die. A friend told me to try Dr. Pierce's medicines. I did so, and after taking six months' home-treatment I was cured. When I commenced taking his treatment I only weighed 130 pounds, now I weigh 175, and can do as good a day's work as I ever could.

From Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Spinal Disease—Nervous Prostration.

WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Buffalo, N.Y.:

Illustration: C.M. Niles, Esq.C.M. Niles, Esq.

Gentlemen—I wish to express my heartfelt thanks to you for the wonderful cure that your special remedies performed in my case. In the Spring of 1891, I had a severe attack of La Grippe, which left me in bad shape. I consulted as good a physician as there was in the county, and he told me that I was suffering from enlargement of the heart and that I must be very careful about taking: any violent exercise, and I must not allow myself to get excited, as excitement of any kind might prove fatal. He gave me remedies for my trouble which made me feel some better; but being a farmer I was obliged to work hard and soon began to run down. I began to have spells of a terribly deathly sinking feeling at my stomach and a terrible pressure at the heart—in the region of the heart, and sometimes I would fall prostrate and although I was conscious all the time I could not speak aloud.

The last of October, 1891, while doing my chores in the morning, I had one of those bad spells and upset my lantern, which resulted in my losing my buildings by fire.

My wife was out of health at that time—she, too, was suffering from the effects of La Grippe. Having lost everything eatable for ourselves and stock, I was forced to work very hard to get through the winter. The next February, 1892, we had another attack of La Grippe, which resulted in the death of my beloved wife. The next May, this terrible affliction together with hard work completely broke me down and although I was doctoring all the time I kept steadily growing worse. I got so bad that I could not sleep more than two or three hours any night and very often I would go all night without closing my eyes at all.

The last of September, I had to give up work almost entirely. I got so that Icould not walk one-fourth of a mile without being completely exhausted. One physician whom I consulted said I was suffering with nervous prostration and gave me medicine for it, but I got no better. My food distressed me terribly and after eating, it would sour and I would have to vomit up the most that I had eaten. At last, I got so I had to live on bread made of wheat middlings and for about three months I could not eat anything else, although it seemed as though I should starve to death. I thought I would give anything if I could eat a hearty meal of anything that I wanted, but did not dare to because every kind of food distressed me so. My bowels became badly constipated and for three months I did not have a natural operation of the bowels; and I suffered very much with catarrh, and there was such a pressure across my forehead that it seemed sometimes as though it would burst. I became very despondent. I did not want to go anywhere, neither did I want to see any one, everything looked dark and gloomy to me. When well, I was naturally or a lively disposition and a great hand to joke with my friends, but no one could say anything funny enough to get a smile out of me then. I was always very fond of music too, but I could not bear to hear a bit of music, neither vocal nor instrumental. About the first of February, 1893, some of my friends prevailed upon me to consult a physician who made a specialty of treating chronic nervous troubles; he said I had no organic trouble of the heart and that it was caused by my stomach being out of order; he said that I had a bad kidney trouble and that my spine was affected, and that unless I got help it would end in "Locomotor Ataxia." He said he could help me but it would probably take a year to cure me. He let me have a month's treatment and gave me advice in regard to diet, etc. I thought for awhile that it was helping me but soon I began to go down hill again, and as a last resort I began to take some of the cure-alls (patent) with which the country is flooded; but I soon became disgusted with them and made up my mind there was no help for me. I had to use about all the strength I had to walk; I could not lift my left foot up to step over anything—had to draw it after me; I could hardly sleep; neither could I transact any business, in fact I did not take any interest in any of my affairs. It seemed to me as though I did not have a friend on earth, and I longed for death to come to put me out of my misery.

My son, with whom I was living, had been trying for a long time to get me to send to you for treatment, but I had paid out so much money and received no benefit from it, that I did not believe there was any help for me.

At last I thought I would write you what I could of my symptoms, and get your opinion of my case, but it took me about two days to write the letter. My head felt so bad that I could not collect myself enough to describe my feelings. You wrote me that my trouble was caused by indigestion, dyspepsia, catarrh, and spinal affection, and that you could cure me, and in fact, make a new man of me if I would send for your special treatment and follow your advice. My son sent for the medicine for me. I took it and followed your directions as near as Icould; the first week I could not see much of any change—the second week I could see that I was improving some, the third week I could look back and see that I had gained considerable. I could sleep better; the bloating in my bowels did not trouble me so bad; my stomach did not distress me so much and I could eat different kinds of food and my digestion seemed to be improving fast; and by using your Special Catarrh Remedy my nose began to run (it had been nearly six months that my nose was perfectly dry) and one day it felt as though something gave way in my head—it seemed to be back, in behind my eyes, and I blowed a large amount of filth out of my head that looked like the yolk of an egg, and it was nearly as thick as jelly; after that my head began to improve rapidly and I began to gain in flesh and strength, and the best of all is, I have kept right on gaining until at the present timeI feel as well as I ever did in my life. Sleep well, can eat three hearty meals every day and digest them too, and eat anything I want, and seven days in a week.

To look back now I don't see why I did not apply to you when I was first taken sick. For about ten years ago. I had treatment of you for catarrh, liver and kidney trouble, and you helped me then; also, about eight years ago my wife had two months' treatment from you which helped her of the troubles from which she was suffering at that time. All the reasons that I can give, is, that owing to financial troubles and having to pay out so much for sickness, I could not seem to get the money (that I could spare) to pay for the treatment.

Gentlemen, I wish I could express my thanks to you for what you have done for me, but I cannot do it. I am a poor hand to express myself, but I consider my restoration to health almost a miracle, and I firmly believe that I owe my life to you, for I do not believe that I should have lived till the present time had it not been for your Special Treatment. Now, if there is any part of this letter that you would wish to publish, you are at liberty to do so: and if it would be the means of directing any suffering fellow being to a place where they can get relief, I shall be very thankful.

Respectfully,C.M. NILES,East New Portland, Somerset Co., Maine.

Gentlemen—For a long time I was suffering from indigestion, catarrh and nervousness. I was so run down that I could not go to school, and, as the various remedies I tried did me no good, I applied to you, and was advised to try a course of special treatment. After taking only two months' medicines from your noble institution, I feel perfectly restored to health. I have, moreover, recovered my lost flesh, and I am pleased to say need no further medicines.

Gentlemen—My daughter had for many months severe nasal catarrh with sores forming on the inside of nose; if not attended promptly the sores would come out on bridge of nose and also in the corner of nose and upper lip. We had several physicians attending her, but they gave her only temporary relief. We were advised by a friend who had used your remedies to try them. After using thirteen bottles of Doctor Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and at the same time two bottles of Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery my daughter was completely cured of the dreaded disease and in the past three years has had no symptoms of the disease ever coming back. I am satisfied the above medicines will cure any kind of catarrh.

Dear Sir—Without solicitation from you, I feel it my duty to suffering humanity, to make known the virtues of your medicine in curing catarrh. About ten years ago, I first began to realize that I was the victim of nasal catarrh; I tried every known remedy, but gradually grew worse. My ears would gather and break; nights of restlessness would succeed days of agony. The disease finally attacked my left lung, and I despaired of obtaining relief. About six years since I began the use of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, in connection with the "Golden Medical Discovery," and by the persistent use of the above remedies I feel that I am completely cured of this loathsome disease.

For attacks of biliousness, coughs and colds, I think there is nothing equal to the "Discovery," and I bless the day that I first began the use of your remedies.

Very respectfully,HOWARD J. CONVERSE,Civil Engineer,Plain City, Madison Co., Ohio.

Gentlemen—I suffered for two years with catarrh in the head, having very severe pains in the top of my head. A hunch came on the side and back of my head—my whole head and face were so sore and sensitive that a pillow of down felt hard, and I was obliged to change my position often. I could not breathe through my nose at all and was obliged to keep my bed fully one half of the time, and could not collect my thoughts to think steadily on any subject—I was really afraid of losing my reason. I got all run-down and was "out of sorts" in general; then I commenced using Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. To-day my health is good and I have no catarrh.

Gentlemen—Being an invalid for many years and trying home physicians without benefit, I went to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, and can most highly recommend this place to all sufferers. I had a severe attack of catarrh and general debility, and after a short stay at this Institute, my whole system was toned up and I was soon enjoying perfect health.

I can truthfully say that this institution fully merits all the praise that could be given it. I never lose an opportunity to recommend all my suffering friends to the Faculty of this Association, for I believe it is in advance of its kind in the world. The physicians and surgeons are skillful and of wide experience, the nurses kind and thoughtful, the rooms large and pleasant, and everything is done to make the visit of any one pleasant as well as beneficial in the highest degree.

I do not hesitate to urge all invalids, no matter what their trouble, to place themselves under the care of the eminent physicians of this institution, being confident that they can give them all the relief that possibly can be obtained from medical treatment and skill.

Dear Sirs—After suffering for several years with nasal catarrh and liver complaint, and having become greatly reduced in health, as a last resort I placed myself in your hands for treatment My improvement began almost immediately after entering your institution. I was enabled to leave at the end of one month, having experienced great benefit. The treatment was continued at home for a few months, after which my cure was complete. At the present time, I am able for office work, and feel that I am completely cured of the catarrh and have but little if any trouble with my liver. I shall lose no opportunity to recommend your institution or your medicines to the afflicted. I do most unhesitatingly recommend chronic sufferers to visit your institution or take your remedies at home.

Gentlemen—For ten years I was greatly afflicted with Catarrh, Bronchitis, Liver Complaint, and Dyspepsia. I tried many doctors and remedies to see if I could not obtain relief, but I grew constantly worse instead of better.

I heard much concerning the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo. I concluded to go there and try and obtain some benefit. I staid a month in this famous Institution, and during that time made fine improvement, and when I left felt like another man.

I can truthfully recommend this world-renowned Institution to all the afflicted. The Institution itself, in all its appointments, is far in advance of the age. It is more like a home than a hospital; the rooms are large and pleasant; the table the very best; the nurses kind and considerate, and the doctors skillful and of wide experience. While there I saw and talked with a great number of people who had come to this Institution as a last resort, and they were all unanimous in their praise.

I cannot say too much in favor of the World's Dispensary Medical Association and its Staff of skilled attendants, nor can I too strongly urge all sufferers to go there, being confident that all within the power of medical science and skill can be done for them there. Would send you my photograph as requested, but there is not a photograph gallery within a hundred miles of here. Yours truly,

Gentlemen—I was troubled for several years with bronchial disease, having a severe cough a good share of the time. Some of my friends thought I had consumption; I got so weak I could scarcely walk across the floor, and raised a good deal. I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and my cough soon got better, and I have not been troubled with it since. That was four years ago; I took only three bottles. I would recommend it to all having throat or lung trouble. I have also used Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy with equally good results. I believe that no one need suffer long with chronic catarrh who is within reach of this remedy.

Gentlemen—Five years since my family physician pronounced my case Pulmonary Consumption. Since that time I nave taken various treatments, some of which have given relief. One treatment that was administered for nasal catarrh, from which I continued to be affected, caused erosion of the mucous membrane, and destruction of the bony septum which separates the two nostrils. Took cold quite easily, suffered from considerable nasal catarrh, with discharges passing posteriorly dropping into the throat; occasional cough with some shortness of breath on exertion. A deep inspiration caused a dizzy sensation in the head; eyesight was impaired as well as the memory. After sitting for a time, and then quickly rising I suffered from blindness as well as a dizzy feeling in the head. I never felt that I was entirely cured of my lung trouble, having many of the symptoms which are common to those in the incipient stage of consumption. I also suffered from indigestion, torpidity of the liver, and constipation of the bowels.

Upon consulting at your Institution, was advised at once to begin the course of specially prepared medicines as indicated in my case. In all, I have only taken two months' special treatment, and it has now been six months since I have required any medicine; all symptoms of disease have entirely disappeared, and I desire to thank you for the interest you have taken in my case, and the treatment prescribed. I have no objection to your publishing my testimony, if by so doing others may be induced to place themselves under your care for treatment at your Institution, or have medicines sent to their homes.

Dear Sir—It is now eight years since I took Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. I had a very bad cough, also night-sweats, and was almost in my grave, as we thought, with consumption, when a friend of mine who died with consumption came to me in a dream and told me to take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and, thank the Lord, I did so. By the time I had taken half of the first bottle I felt so much better, I kept on till I had taken three bottles, that was all I needed. I got well and strong again.

Dear Sir—I had been troubled with chronic nasal catarrh for a year; could not sleep at night or rest in the day, because I could not breathe through my nose. I tried everything I was told of, and all failed to cure. I read about Dr. Pierce's remedies and thought I would try them. I used three bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, four of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and I was relieved within two weeks. I continued these medicines for four weeks, and am perfectly cured. I would advise any one who is troubled with catarrh to use Dr. Pierce's medicines. I am very thankful for the remedies.

Gentlemen—Twenty years ago I was nearly dead with nasal catarrh. I had it several years before I knew what it was, then I read Dr. Pierce's description of catarrh. I felt as he described. No one else had ever been able to tell me anything of the symptoms he described. I simply concluded that if he could so minutely describe, he could also relieve, and I immediately placed myself under his treatment—by correspondence. In a few months I was entirely relieved and have not suffered from it since.

At the time I placed myself under his care I could not breathe with my mouth closed. My friends thought I could live only a few months more. I have had no return of catarrh and enjoy good health. I believe Dr. Pierce's treatment will cure any case of catarrh.

Nine years ago I was under Dr. Pierce's treatment (by correspondence) for dyspepsia. After a few months' treatment I was entirely cured of that terrible disease.

I commenced using Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, at the same time using the "Golden Medical Discovery"; I used one package and one bottle of "Golden Medical Discovery" and I found great relief; after using the second I thought all was right, but I began to feel the effects of it again, so I got the third and fourth packages, and I am satisfied I am rid of it. Since I commenced using your medicines, I have taken six bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

Gentlemen—I had been a great sufferer from nasal catarrh for a number of years which greatly debilitated my system, and in consequence, have been in poor health for the last five years.

Slight exposure would cause bronchial trouble, but kept up under it until a little more than two years ago when I was taken with "La Grippe," which greatly aggravated my other troubles; and for more than six months before consulting you was scarcely able to do anything;could not breathe through my nostrilsonly a little while at a time either day or night; I suffereddreadfully, having at timesterrible pains in my headbeing unable to sleep some nights more than two hours and then not without dreaming, and when I awoke my head felt worse then when I retired. Had indigestion, chronic constipation and stomach trouble.

A little more than a year ago, while reading in one of your Memorandum Books I decided to try your Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, "Favorite Prescription" and "Pellets;" and after using several bottles, I began to get better and to get some strength, but my catarrh remained about the same until I consulted you by letter and the remedy prescribed proved effectual; after three months' treatment, I am able to do most of my house work.

It gives me great pleasure to testify to the merits of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. I can say honestly and candidly that it is the grandest medicine ever compounded for catarrh. I suffered terribly with that dreadful disease and thought my case a hopeless one. I have expended on my case about forty dollars for different remedies guaranteed to cure catarrh in its worst form, but received no benefit therefrom. I also received treatment from two physicians, but they did me no good. Having read a great deal about Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, I concluded to try it. The first bottle gave the most pleasing results, and the second bottle completely cured my case, which I considered hopeless. I most heartily recommend Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy to all suffering from catarrh, with the assurance that it will surely cure. It is a great boon to suffering humanity. Hoping that this humble testimony may be the means of leading many sufferers to try your most valuable medicine with the same happy results as I experienced, and wishing you the best of success, I am,

Gentlemen—I have been using Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and have been taking "Golden Medical Discovery" since I last wrote to you. I am well pleased with the result. I feel better than I have for years. The "Golden Medical Discovery" caused a very unpleasant sensation to pass through my body at first but I do not feel it much now. I have recommended it to others and the only complaint I hear now is that our druggist cannot keep a supply on hand.

I take pleasure in reporting my case to you, and I feel that the interest you have taken in my case has been a blessing unto me.

My mother has suffered with bad legs for over twenty years and last fall they got so bad she was unable to walk. She has taken "Golden Medical Discovery" all winter and is now able to walk a little. She says she feels better in body than she has for years. She has spent the most of her life among the sick and speaks very highly of your medicines.

I have been teaching school since my health got better and last year I was able to travel and preach fifty-nine sermons, besides my work of teaching.

For four years I suffered with catarrh in my head, and impure blood, until my health was very feeble. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery I found to be the best blood-purifier I ever used.

But instead of that I am able to walk one and one-half miles and teach school every day.

Gentlemen—Some ten years ago I suffered untold agony from chronic nasal catarrh. My family physician gave me up as incurable, and said I must die. At this time I weighed 110 pounds. My case was such a bad one, that every day, towards sunset, my voice would become so hoarse I could barely speak above a whisper. In the morning my coughing and clearing of my throat would almost strangle me.

Gentlemen—The doctors said I had bronchitis, and I doctored with five different physicians before taking your medicines. My throat would bleed from three to five times a day—half a dozen mouthfuls perhaps—as fresh as if you had cut your finger, and I was in a generally weakened state although able to be about the house, but the least exertion would make me tremble. Finally I purchased one of Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Advisers, and read it a good deal, and so was induced to take your medicines. I took in all seven bottles of the "Golden Medical Discovery," one of the "Favorite Prescription," and one bottle of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and some of the "Pellets," and they did everything for me—more than anything else I ever tried. In about six months' time I was well. Now, my throat does not trouble me unless I take cold. It has been about six years since I took your medicines, and I think they cured me.

I think there are no medicines equal to your medicines, and would recommend them to all suffering ones.

My nose would run, and stuff would fall into my throat whenever I would lie down, and at other times it seemed dry and crusty, and then my head would become stopped up and I would suffer again.

I used cubebs and glycerine for a long time; they only relieved me while I was using them. I used several other kinds of stuff, but I received no benefit from them. I had nearly given up in despair. At last I came across one of your advertisements of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy in one of your Memorandum Books, and I thought I would try it. It is the grandest thing on earth. I was thankful to God I found something at last to stop my suffering. May God bless you, dear friends, for saving my life.

I used your medicine about eight weeks: it only took two bottles to cure me sound and well after all the rest had failed.

Gentlemen—Seven years ago I was on the verge of the grave, with what the physician pronounced an abscess of the right lung. It lingered on for three years. During that time my side discharged large quantities of pus and I had a dreadful cough. I was so weak that I could not walk fifty yards without being completely exhausted. I had taken every kind of medicine that was recommended for similar maladies, such as cod liver oil, sarsaparillas, iron tonic and syrup of hypophosphites, without any relief. I was about discouraged when I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. I took six bottles and it completely restored me to health. The discharge stopped from my side, and the cough has ceased. I am now able to follow my profession, which is a teacher of penmanship. I can walk ten miles any day without the least worry. If any one doubts this statement they can write me and I will verify the above statement.
