I ADVERTISEMENT. Holloway's Pills.— The Grand
Secret.—With the fogs and foul vapours of winter ill
health will creep in unless the blood from time to time be
purified, and noxious matters expelled from the body. In
this matter the^public may be its own physician. Hollo-
way's pills may be purchased at a trifling cost ; instruc-
tions for taking them will be furnished with the pills, and
a little attention, with a few restrictions, will enable per-
sons to keep themselves in health under very trying cir-
cumstances. These pills act as alteratives, tonics, and
aperients. Holloway's medicine should find a place in
every house and home, where it should be ready for in-
stant administration when the slightest symptom gives
warning of approaching indisposition.
