DEBT COLLECTING AND LEGAL DEPARTMENT.
It is suprising (something grevious) every year to see the amount of money—good money, or ought to be—that
is lost to Creditors through their inability to follow up a Debtor (in consequence of being unable or unwilling to
aford the time to leave their business, or having tried (and most probably inefectually) to recover it, have become
thoroughly sick of the affair I) The Debtor, in most cases, knows and relies upon this and calculates that he will
eventually tire his Creditor out.
DEBT COLLECTING.—The system adopted by these Offiees is the most peremptory and saccessful ever
submitted to the Public. Immediate application to Debtor • prompt remittance to Creditor. Reports oa unpaid
debts every month. Statement with every remittance, so that Creditor can post direct to his Ledger.

Kidneys, and Bowels.
These Pills can be confidently recommended as the
most simple and certain remedy for all diseases affecting
the stomach, liver, and bowels. They do not distress
the system, or weaken the frame, but thoroughly invigo-
rate the digestive organs, gently excite the stomach and
liver, stimulate:the kidneys to perform their functions
efficiently, and act upon the bowels without griping or
any other annoyance.
Diseases peculiar to Women.
There is no medicine equal to Holloway's Pills for cor
recting the ailments peculiar to females. Their very
mild and painless action highly recommends them to
every household, as they may be taken with safety for
any irregularity of the system. Any mother, nurse, or

wonderful manner.
Biliousness, Loss of Appetite, and Lowness of
Spirits.
The Pills effect a wonderful change in persons subject
tobilious attack, as they create a healthy appetite, cor-
ract indigestion, remove excess of bile, and effectually
care jaundice, bilious remittents, and all the varieties of
disease generated by an unhealthy condition of the liver
