The Tenderfoot Farmer
It was one of these experimental farmer, who put green
spectacles on his cow and fed her shavings. His theory
was that it didn't matter what the oow ate so lonf as she
was fed. The questions of digestion and nourishment bad
not entered into his calculations.
It's only a "tenderfoot" farmer that would try such
n experiment with a cow. But manv a farmer fH.
self regardfoa of digestion and nutrition. He might almost as well eat hv
ings for all the good he gets out of his food. The result is that the stomach
grows "weak" the action of the organs of digestion and nutrition are impaired
and the man suffers the miseries of dyspepsia and the agonies o nervousness.
To strengthen the stomach, restore the metlvltr ot the or
tana ot digestion and nutrition and brace tin the nerves,
use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, it Is an aw
tailing remedy, and has the confidence ot physicians as
well as the praise ot thousands healed by Its use.
