1.1.-THE GREAT PURIFYING AND STRENGTH-

ENING MEDICINE.
What though the sun in beauty shine,
And you have countless hoards of wea'th;
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 person. They remove all Disorders and
Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms,
Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache, Fulness after Meals, Indi-
gestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of the Bowels, Listless-
ness, 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 Sensa-
tions,—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 refresh-
ing Sleep, a.keen Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy
ininvigorating the system, and imparting a pleasing serenity
of mind. They are unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few
instances, where occasionally 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, Dim-
ples, Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the
Complexion. Ladies, however delicate, will find them parti-
cularly beneficial both before and after confinement. For
Elderly People they are the most comfortable Medicine that
can be taken.
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 recom-
mend your valuable Pills to all my friends."— Mr. Edwin
Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax : " I find your Pilulie Vitae
a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent-
wrog, Tan-y-Bwlch, North Wales: "Mr. Warner's compli-
ments to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so
much good as his Pilulte Vitae."
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.

bl PORTA ST.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for
Dr. DE ROOS' Pills, have attempted to foist upon the Pur-
chaser other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding,
from which they obtain a larger profit. The GENUINE have
the words" WALTER DE ROOS, LONDON," in white let-
ters on the red ground printed in the stamp, affixed to each
Box, by special direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Com-
missioners, to protect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate
which is Felony.
May be obtained through all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lad.,
2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., 118., and 335. per Box, with Directions for
Use, &c., or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr.
DE ROOS, 35, Ely-place, Holborn-hill, London, they will be
sent per return.

Sold by Jones, 5, Paradise-street, and 78, London-road ;
Mottram, 24, Waterloo-road; and Priestley, 52, Lord-street,

Wigan. Clarke, Gazette-office, Lancaster. Westmacot, No.
4, Market-street, Manchester; and all Medicine Vendors.
N.B.—Respectable persons in country places, who will be
allowed a liberal commission, may make a handsome addi-
tion to their income, by selling these Pills, which are very
justly becoming a favourite Medicine with the 'Public.
