Marvelous Resiilts.
From a letter written by Rev. J.
Gunderman, of Diamondale, Mich.,
we are permitted to make this ex
tract: I
There are a great
many -wrong ways
of treating disease.
It is easy to make
mistakes. Doctors
make mistakes just
tne same as any
body else. The
doctors -who mak
the fewest mistakes
are specialists.
They do one thing
over and over and
over, so that thet
know all that thert
is to know about itk.
In the 30 years that Dr Pierce's Pleasanr
Pellets have been sold, hundreds of thou
sands of people have taken them, and hav
been cured by tLem. There is no longei
any possible question of their efScacy
They are the product of experience, triec
by time. They are intended to cure ecu
stipation. They are good for men, wo
men and children. They are-tiny, sugar
coated granules, very easy to take, very
o4uick in their action. One " Pellet " is a
gentle laxative, two "Pellets" a mild
cathartic. A great many people make
the mistake of "sandbagging" their di
gestive onrans. Thev take sotne strcr.v;
and violent medicine, - -which create j
worse troubles than it cures. Strong
purgatives shock the system unnecessar
Ay, and they do not cure constipation
Constipation is a thing that makes peo
pie listless, and , languid; makes theii
breath bad; wakes them up with foul
taste in their mouths; .puts black spoti
before their eves; makes them dizzy
causes headache; makes them bilious,
produces pimples and blotches runs intt
all sorts of serious consequences. All thii
is cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
cured absolutely, perfectly, permanently.
