4MFOKTAH3! DISCOVHBIES OF GOLD are |&O doubt of great value to society, especially at ft time like the present, when the money market is so tight and poverty so distressing. Stilt, however, there are some things m this world far more precious than gold, m spite of the immense influence it weilds over mankind. Health, for instance, cannot be purchased for money, but ib may be preserved and secured by the use of Hollo way's Pills. No family should be without them, aa they are equally good m their •ffeeti for cither old or young. No complaint can for long withstand their healing power. They drive out all impurities from the blood, strengthen the digestive organs, and cleanse the stomach.
