HERALD DOT THE TIMES.


WNT IIEREAS, il il now an absolute and well
/ Wv known fact. that every disease, whether
il be in tho head or feet, in the brain or meanesl
member, whether il be nn outward ulcer or an
inward abscess. are all. though arising from many
causes. reducible TO this one grand effect namely,
impurity Of the blood. For on the healthy or un-
healthy condition Of the Stomach and bowels en-
lirely depends the rure or impure state OF the
blood. and consequently the healthy or unhealthy
state Of the body.
\ II hath been clearly proved in former ADVERTISE
ments that the stomach, and bowels are the sover-
eisns Of the body. and that by them life or death
is propelled to lis renotest eAiremiles, the head
with lis master organ, the brain, being in no wise
more distinguished than the foot in this particular
How can we then deny the grent and lending
truth, that there is reciprocal influence between
mind and body! Tho fact is evident-wheiher

social and domestic happiness depends upon the
state of our biliury and digestive organs-and the
management and cure Of the disorders Of the mind

all our domestic animals, whose habits can be
noticed, wander through the fields when coslive,

those which govern the human economy. Purga-

and periodical purifiers Of the ocean, Are not
the tenpests and tornadoes the purgatives and

condition Of the stomach aud bowels becomes

TEN, and such a one is-Brandeth's Vegetable
Universal Pills, which in England and America
have stood The test Of trial. and have performed
cures upon thousands Of helpless persons, after the
usual scientific skill Of physicians had consolod
them with the assurance that they could do no
more. Their properties az an ambitious and
alerient medicine are unrivalled all who use,
recommend them their virtues surpass all eulo-
gy, and must be used to be appreciated. The
weak aud delicate will be strengthened by their
use, not by bracing, but by removing the cause
Of weakness, the gross and corrupt humors Of the
body. They require no change in diet or care Of
any kind. Plain directions accompany each box,
so tina, every one is his own competent physician.
