COOKLE'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS,

affect the action of the kidneys : thus, by removing ti e causes
productive of so much discomfort they restore the energies
both of body and mind. To those who indulge In the luxuries
of the table, these pills will prove highly useful, occasioning
no pain in their action unless they meet with an unusual
quantity of acrid Idle and acid matter in the stomach and
bowels. To Europeans on their arrival in India or China they
are recommended as a presemative against the fatal disorders
peculiar to tropical climates. Their occasional use, if osubined
with the strictest &Routh's, to diet, will be frequently found to
remove at once, by their influence over the secretions, that
congestive and unhealthy condition of the liver which Is so
often the earliest antecedent of severe febrile and constitutional
disturbance.

It must be understood that Ouse pills are not recommended
as containing any new ,dall;rel,tlSly active ingredients ;on
the contrary, they arc characterised by a remarkable simplicity
of combination, and whatever merit they may be found to
possum depends as much InKM the selection of pure drugs, and
be unusual labour and attention bestowed upon their subse-
quent preparation, as upon the acknowledged peculiarity of
their composition. . . . .
