THE WONDER OF WONDERS ! ! !
HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.
ASTONISHING CURE OF DROPSY.
Copy of a Letter from Mr. David Simpson, of CoHingham, dated
4th Sept. 1854.
To Professor Holloway,—Sir,—it is with great pleasure I have
to inform you of a most wonderful cure of that dreadful malady,
the dropsy, effected on my daughter by the vise of your invalu-
able pills. She had been under medical treatment for a long
time without deriving any benefit, although she was tapped
twice, and fourteen pounds of water taken from her each time.
After suffering very severely for some time, she finally had re-
course to your pills, and in four weeks was completely cured, after
every other remedy failed to do her the slightest good. I there-
fore feel bound to make this statement public for the benefit of
similar sulTerers.—l remain, sir, yours obediently,
(Signed) DAVID SIMPSON.
WONIMRFUL CURE OF ASTHMA.

Copy of a Letter from Mr. Joseph \\ of Hyde, Cheshire,

dated the sth of August, 1854.
To Professor Holloway, Sir, Mrs. Newton (a lady well
known in this town, residing in Hanover street) was afflicted
for years with a severe attack of asthma ; difficulty of breathing,
and a most violent cough, causinc, severe pains in her side, parti-
cularly when she took cold; she tried many remedies, and con-
sulted different individuals, without deriving any benefit. At last
she came to me, and I advised her to take your pills and use
your ointment ; after a few weeks, by perseverance with your
remedies, she was considerably better, anti, by continuing the
same, in three months she was perfectly cured.—l remain, yours,
&c. (Signed) Jos. WILD.
INDIGESTION AND BILIOUSNESS l EXTRAORDINARY

CURE! 1!
Copy of a Letter from Mr. James Henshall, of Ashton-under-

Lyne, dated 2Sth June, 1854.
To Professor Holloway,—Sir,-1 was seriously afflicted with
indigestion, attended with frequent sickness, loss Of appetite
giddiness, headache, drowsiness, and dimness of sight, an op-
pression at the pit of the stomach, and the other attendant evils
of a generally disorganised constitution. Although I tried a
variety of reputed remedies, I was not benefited, and finally I be-
came so bad that life was almost insupportable to me. At this
period I commenced using your pills, and in gratitude am bound
to confess, that after a few doses I felt considerably better, and
in six weeks was radically cured by this medicine alone, after
every other remedy had fa►led to afford me the slightest relief.
(Signed) JAS. HENSHALL.

Dr. DE ROOS' PILULA: VIT.E, or VEGETABLE LIEF. PILLS.
A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages, concocted
solely from the VEOETABLR kingdom; they may be administered
to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate Invalid, by merely
regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the per-
son. They remove all Disorders and Pains in the Stomach and
Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache,
Fulness after Meals, Indigestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of
the Bowels, Listlessness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance;
and while they act thus salutarily, they must of necessity increase
the strength of the Patient. Headache, Giddiness, Singing in the
Ears, Fluttering of the Sight, and other Heavy Drowsy Sensations
—the forerunners of many fatal diseases,—as Apoplexy, Paralytic
Strokes, Epilepsy, &c., are effectually warded off by a few doses
of these Pills. They also produce sound refreshing Sleep, a keen
Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy in invigorating the
system, and imparting a pleasing serenity of mind. They are
unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few instances, where occa-
sionally employed in Families and Schools, will other assistance
be needed.

For Females they are truly excellent, removing Headaches,
Depression of Spirits, Dizziness of Sight, Nervousness, Dimples,
Sallowness, and giving a healtbyjuveni le bloom to the Complexion.
Ladies, however delicate, will find them particularly beneficial
both before and after confinement. For Elderly People they are
the most comfortable Medicine that can he taken.

.-..-...
Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot store more
important articles of health than the above, which, by regulating
the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the Nervous System,
will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent abroad; as also Sea
Sickness and other complaints incidental to long voyages and
irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can be properly furnished
without them, for when far removed from medical aid, they will
find in these Pills a never-failing restorative.
Mr. Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not once
required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied this
would be the case generally, if people were not so much governed
by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Sleaford, near Melton Mowbray :
Having read your advertisement, I felt assured your Pills would
be of use to some of my poorer neighbours. I have had 12 boxes,
and they have derived great benefit from taking them. I shall
continue to recommend your valuable Pills to all my friends."—
Mr. Edwin Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax: "I find your
