HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.

A PATIENT IN A DYIN9. STATE, CURED OF A DIP-

ORDER IN THE aIEST.

Extract of a Letter from Mr. Robert Calvert, Chemist, Stokes-
ly, dated January 29th, 1847.
SIR,—Mr. Thom izz,son, National Schoolmaster of this Town
desires me to send you the particulars respecting a Son of his,
who had been seriously ill for three years and a half, and who
has derived the greatest benefit from the use of your medicines,
after trying all ordinary resources without effect. The Boy is
eight years of age, of strumous or scrofulous constitution. He
seems to have had a Pleurizy which ended in a large collection
of matter in the Chest, which eventually formed a passage
through the wales of the Chest, which ended in three fistulons
sores, which continued to discharge large quantities of pus up
to May, when he was induced to try your medicines; at this
date he was in an apparent dying condition, and in the highest
degree of Marasmus or Consumption. He had severe hectic
fever, the urine depositing large quantities of sediment—con-
stant distressing cough—no appetite—and the Stomach reject-
ing nearly every thing he took, both food and medicine, he be-
gan by taking tive of your Pills night and morning, which were
gradually increased to ten, which in a short time had the effect
of completely curing the Cough, the Stomach affections, and
restoring the urine to its natural state. His strength and flesh
are also restored, and his appetite keen and digestion good.
(Signed) ROBERT CALVERT.

thanking you before this time for your politeness in sending
me your pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of sena-
ing you an order for the amount, nod, at the same time, to add

to ]rave another Box and a Pot of the Ointment, in case any
of my family should ever require either.

ON THE ATTAINMENT OF HEALTH, AND
THE BEST MEANS FOR ITS PRESERVATION.

" Health is a blessing dropt from heaven,
Which money cannot buy ;
The life of life; the body's peace—
And pleasant harmony."

Notwithstanding the revolutions medicine has undergone as
a science, despite the theories which have alternately reigned de-
spotic in her schools, and tne controversies which have divided
her most distinguished ornaments, her ultimate aim has ever
been the alleviation of human suffering; for should either the
enthuSiasm of her followers or the warmth of their discussions
surprise us when we consider the priceless object—health; the
attainment and preservation of which are so ardently sought
by all that a single exception would be a paradox in the history
of society. But the aid of the physician is too frequently soli-
cited to restore lost health, insead of enforcing the study of
Nature's easy. lesson to
.preserve it; indeed, the Goddess de-
mands but simple offerings, and that the possession of her
boon requires us but to refrain from excesses against her laws
has been thus elegantly illustrated by the philosophic Dr.
Thomas Brown—" Between satiety on the one hand, and want
on the other, the stream of health flows tranquilly along,
which, but for these boundaries, would speedily waste itself and
disappear, as the most magnificent river, which, if eispersed
over a boundless plain, would flow almost into nothing, owes
its abundance and majestic beauty to the very banks which
seem to confine its waters within too narrow a channel." This
beautiful truism embodies the creed of the ablest physicians—
that simplicity and moderation with regard to diet, and a faith-
ful discharge of the functions of the digestive organs, will be
the best guarantee for the maintenance of health, as it is by
their conjoined agency the body derives its support and strength,
and which Noon languish and decline when they become en-
feebled and oppressed. To palliate this latter state, to equalize
the secretion of the liver, and to restore the digestive functions
to their original and natural action; Mr. COCKLE'S COMPOUND
ANTIBILIOUS PILLS are cznfidently recommended.
Prepared by JAMES COCKLE, Surgeon and Apothecary,
IS, New Ormond-street, London ; and may be had of all re-
spectable Medicine Vendors, in Boxes, at Is. 10., 2s. 9d., and
4s. 6d.

Dr. Collier's Testimonial in favour of COCKLE'S Pit.Ls, must
be admitted to be highly satisfactory, and will be read with
much interest.

The following is an extract from the second edition (page
189) of the translation of the New Pharmacopoeia of the Royal
College of Physicians of London, by Dr. G. F. COLLIER, pub-
lished by Longman and Co. :
" It is no small defect in this compilation (speaking of the
Naw PHARP4ACOPCEIA) that we have no purgative medicines
but what contains aloes ; yet we know that Inemorrhoidal per-
sons cannot bear aloes, EXCEPT it be in the form of Cockle's
Pills, which chiefly consist of aloes, scammony, and colocynth,
which I think are formed into a sort of compound extract, the
acridity of which is obviated, I suspect, by an alkaline process,
and by a fourth ingredient (unknown to me) of an aromatic
tonic nature. I think no better and no worse o! it for its being
a patent medicine. I look at it as an article of commerce and
domestic convenience, and do not Hesitate to say, it is the best
made pill in the kingdom; a muscular purge, a mucous purge,
and a hydrogogue purge combined, and their effects properly
controlled by a dirigent and corrigent. That it does not com-
monly produce limmorrhoids, like most aloetic pills, I attribute
to its being thoroughly soluble, so that no unnissolved particles
adhere to the mucous membrane of the rectum."

NOTE.—Purchasers of Cockle's Pills ought particularly to
examine the Government stamp affixed to each box, and to see
that the words " JAMES COCKLE, APOTHECARY," are en-
graved upon it in white letters, as without this mark of authen-
ticity none can possibly be genuine.

Observe that the Signature of the proprietor, "G. C. Serjeant,"
is written on the Government Stamp.

NICOLL'S PALETOT, OF LLAMA CLOTH, REG.'D
6 AND 7 Vie., CAP. 65.—Messrs Nicoll, Court Tailors, of
Regent-street and Cosuhill, London, have the honour re-
spectfully to announce that MESSRS. DAWBARN AND
SON, of 110, Bold-street, Liverpool, will continue to be
their sole agents for that town, and will have the exclu-
sive sale of this fashionable Coat. Messrs. Nicoll can
most cheerfully recommend this establishment to any of
their patrons residing in its neighbourhood who may re-
quire, with the Paletot Coats, either Dress or Frock,
Trousers, Waistcoats, &c., MESSRS. DAWBARN AND
SON being constantly supplied from London with every
improvement in taste and fashion, and more particularly
as the same principles of business for which their own
firm is now well known are maintained by Messrs. Daw-
barn, viz., very moderate prices, combined with every ex-
cellence of material for prompt cash payments. Messrs.
N. are well aware that there Are some fashions which have
so little of the enduring principle in them that they sel-
dom survive the fluctuations of a single season; others,
which from their intrinsic merit, acquire a firm footing in
public esteem and enjoy a more extensive vogue in pro-
portion as they become known to the public. To the lat-
ter order the Paletot has an undoubted claim, as by its
unassuming, yet gentlemanly appearance may be ascribed
the constant patronage of H. R. H. Prince Albert, Prince
George of Cambridge, His Grace the Duke of Wellington.
and the principal members of the senate, the pulpit, and
the bar. Price of Paletot, rich silk lining, two guineas
and a half; not silk, two guineas. The Paletot D'Ete,
only weighing a few ounces, one guinea. 110, Bold-
street, Liverpool.

The Earl of Clarendon is to arrive in Dublin on Satur-
day next, July 3rd. His Excellency has appointed the
Hon. Gerald Ponsonby to the office of assistant private
secretary.
