Company for the whole term of life, when they have acquired an
adequate value.

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—
"For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province,
of Winchmore-hill, Middlesex) 1 have experienced the efficacy of
this excellent medicine, and I have the happiness of saying that
I never had a better state of heath, which I attribute to Friunp-
ton's pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general
use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it."
For females these pills are truly excellent, removing all ob.
structions, the distressing headache so very prevalent with the
sex, depression of spirits, dulness of sight, nervous affections,
blotches, pimples, and sallowness of the sitin,and gives a healthy
juvenile bloom to the complexion.
