F-EERE is perhaps no medical obserya-
ton better established, none more gen-
orally confirmed by the experience otthe best
physicians Of all ages and countries, and none
Of more importance to the practitioner, than
the fact, that many Of the most difficult and
incurable complaints originate IN neglected
COLDS. La a climate lis variable as ours,
where the changes of the weather, are ire
quently sadden and unexpected, it requires
more care and attention, oguard against this
subtle and dangerous enemy of life, than
most people imagine, or are wiling to be-
stow. Hence the vast number of patients al
ficted with coughs, catarrhs, asthmas and
co~nsumptions. The many cases OF the kind
which fell under my observation, the dlsap-
pointment I experienced in practice, from
remedies highly recommended, and my W
p~re-disposition to pulmoRlc complaints, were
strong inducements for me to consider when
Their a compound, consisting of mild yegita-
BILE substances could not be invented, more
free from the well founded objections OF pra-
ticioners, and better calculated to avert the
threatening destruction OF the lungs.
| have the satisfaction to offer to the public
such aremedy, under the name of the We
GETABLE PULMONIC DETERGENT,
we'll adapted to various constitutions and ha-
bits, and to declare with the fullest confidence
that | found this composition far superior to
others intended to answer the same purpose.
| am perfectly satisfied, that practitioners,
who have frequently to combat the effects OF
suppressed persplratioD and do not neglect
he use Of the lancet and other excavations,
whenever they are indicated, Will place tins
medicine on the list of their most %faVorite re-
needles as it can in no Case do harm. ! will
bide by this motto
NO RELIEF NO PAY.
This motto may be deemed ostentatious by
some, and amounting to a positiyeness that
the medicine will invariably effect a cure In
any stage of a disease, like a miracle the
proprietor is far from believing that this me-
dicine will render mankind immortal but ne
is fully sensible If taken seasonably, and ac-
cording to the directions, it will either pre-
vent or cure, and if unscasonabiy, it will most
sensibly alleviate distress and pTolong lie
and having no desire to profit by the conf
ience of the sick and afflicted, induces me to
make the above overture should the contra
ry appear in any instance, as in some 1t pos
sibly may, the money for the medicine will
De cheerfully refunded By the person who
may yenG the same.

Lees Altl-blllous Pills,
Prepared by Richard Lee and Son.
Persons wishing to purchase this valuable
medicine, are requested to be particular In
enquiring Tor Lees Anti bilious Pills, put up
in wooden boxes, having on the outside wrap
per tie signature of Richard Lee and Son -
This Is necessary, as there are other pills OF
the same name.
The operation of these highly esteemed
pills is perfectly mild, and the experience OF
thousands has proved, they MAY be used In
eve,v situation In life without the least neon,
senience or danger.
They are admirably adapted to carry off
supernuous bile, and prevent its morbid Sc
cretions to restore the appetite, Produce a
YesAlar habit Of the body, promote free pers-
piration, and thereby prevent COLDS, so often
attended with fatal consequences to the lives
OF thousands, and seldom, if ever, fail to re-
move cold, if taken on It's first appearance.
Habitual costivencss, and its opposite, are
removed by their wholesome influence, az
I also those diseases arising from them, head
aches and sickness at the stomach.
1t is almost unnecessary to state, that on
the regular habis 81 the system. the health OF
mankind depends. To conduce to this all
important object, perhaps no medicine was
ever more generally successful than these
pills asey zeper do harm, and at least nine
times out OF ten afford relief to those who use
them for the purposes for which they were
intended.
With the most perfect confidence we re-
commend these pills TO the public, and will
only further add, that their operation Is al
ways pleasant, and that thsY leave nothing OF
that costiyencss behind them too often attend
ing medicines designed for similar purposes.

facts. during which We have had very ex-
tensive and constantly INCREASING sails Tor this
