It's sometimes said patent medicines
are for the ignorant. The doctors
foster this idea. '"The taeople," we're
told, "are mostly ignorant when it
comes to medical science." Suppose
they are ! What a sick man needs is
not knowledge, but a cure, and the
medicine that cures is the medicine for
the sick. Dr. Pierre's Golden Medical
Discovery cures the. "do believes" and
the "don't believes." There's ere's no
hesitance about it,no "if" or "possibly.'
It says—"I can cure you, only do as I
direct." Perhaps it tails occasionally,
The makers hear of it when it does,
because they never keep the money
when the medicine fails to do good.
Suppose the doctors went on that
principle. (We beg the doctor's par -
den. It wouldn't do !)
