Union Meeting Being Held at the First Baptist Chuich. , This week, the first of the new year, the Baptists the world over, are observ ing as week of prayer for the purpose of advancing mission work.

"The square peg in the round hole* figuratively expresses the use of means unsuited to the desired end. A great many people who have been cured of dyspepsia and other diseases of the stom ach and its allied organs of digestion and nutrition by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery say: "We tried many medicines with only temporary benefit. It was not until we began the use of ‘ Golden Medical Discovery ’ that we found a complete and lasting cure.” It is undoubtedly true that Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery holds the rec ord for the perfect and permanent cure of indigestion and other diseases of the stomach and associated organs of diges tion and nutrition. It is not a palliative. It cures the cause of disease and builds up the body with solid healthy flesh, not flabby fat. "It is v.ith pleasure that I tell you what Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and ' Pellets’ have done for me,” writes Mrs. T. M. Palmer, of Peede, Kaufman Co., Texas. "Two years ayo I was taken with stomach and bowel trouble. Everything I ate would put me in distress. I lived two weeks on milk and even that gave me pain. I felt as though I would starve to death.. Three doctors attended me one said I had dys pepsia, two said catarrh of the stomach and bowels. They attended me (one at a time) for one vear. I stopped taking their medicine and tried other patent medicine; got no better, and I grew so weak and nervous my heart would flutter. I could not do any kind of work. Now I can do my house work very well; am gaming in Jirrh arid strength , and can eat anything I want.” Accept no substitute for Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery.
