Take care of the stomach and the | health will take care of itself. If people only realised the soundness of that , statement the majority might' live to a . good old age like Moses, "the eye un- - dimmed, the natural force unabated." ! It ia in the stomach' that£the blood is ; made. It iB from the stomach that i nourishments dispensed to nerve and ! muscle. If the ^stomach is "weak" it j can't do its whole work for each part , of the body. If it is diseased the dis- I ease^will taint>the nourishment which 1 is distributed, and so spread (disease ' throughout the body. It was the reali- 1 , aation of thfe importance of the stom- i ach as the very center of health*and the j c common source of disease, which led j ' Dr. Pierce to prepare his "Golden j ( Medical Discovery." "Diseases which ' originated the stomach must be cured , ' through the stomach. " The soundness j 1 of this Jtheory is proved every day by I cures of diseased organs, 'heart, liver, j 1 lungs, blood— by the use of the "Die- ! covery" which is solely and singly a j { medicine for the blood and organs of j I digestion andfnutrition.
