CANADIAN MAIL.—The Canadian mail steamship

the Canadian mails, besides which she also took out a fair
extent of cargo, and had about 40 cabin passengers.
[AuvEnTlsEsiENT.]—Holloway's Pills.—Heat and )118t.
—These are both trying to the health—the former by
lowering the nervous tone, the latter by poisoning the cir-
culation at its fountain—the lungs. Holloway's pills are
invaluable for correcting these sources of ill-health. They
purify the blood, brace the nerves, strengthen the stomach,
improve the appetite, act mildly on the bowels, and invigo-
rate the whole system. Thus these pills prevent headache,
heartburn, biliousness, nausea, and a host of other annoy-
ing symptoms which, when neglected, are almost certain
to be the forerunners of disease.
