IT OW TO PROLONG LIFE AND ENJOY IT.-
xi. THE GREAT PURIFYING AND STRENGTHENING
MEDICINE.

What though the sun in beauty shine,
And you have countless hoards of wea7th ;
What though the world—all, all was thine,
If you but want the blessing, Health.
Dr. DE ROOS' PILULE VITIE, or VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS.
A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages, concocted
solely from the VEGETABLE 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 bealthyjuvenile bloom to the Complexion.
Ladies, however delicate,. will rind them particularly beneficial
both before and after confinement. For Elderly People they are
the most comfortable Medicine that can be 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 Pilulae
Vitae a very pleasant medicine in removing headache.,• '—Maent-
wrog, Tan-y-Bwlch, North Wales: "Mr. Warner's compliments
to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so much good
as his PilulE Vitae."
