WnEREAs, III. now a" absolute and well
w known fact, il,ut every disease, wbeihe'
il be in tho head or feet, ia the brain or u,eane-
member, whether il bs an outward nicer or a
inward abscess. are all. though arising from man,
causes, reducible 10 this grand effect namely
impurty of the blood. For on the healthy or un
healthy condition Of the Stomach aud bowels EN-
lirely depends the ruIe or impure state OF lh'
blood, and consequently the healthy or unl'eallh,
state Of The body.
Il hath been clearly proved in former advertise
ncn,s that the stomach aud bowels are the sover-
eig,,s of tho body, and that by them life or death
is propelled 10 lis renotest exlremities, the head
with lis master organ, the brain, being IN no wise
more distinguished than tho foot in this particular
How can we then deny the great and leading
truth, that there is reciprocal influence between
| mind and body! The fact is evldeDt-whethci
| the one il only modification Of The other will
| always continue IA mystery IN tins state oi exist
enco but our comfort, our repose, nay, even oui
social and domestic happiness depends upon the
state Of our hillary and digestive organs-and The
| management and cure Of the disorders Of the mind
must be made by application to the body.
II Were we content TO follow naiure, To assist hcI
| in her manifest struggles, what mighty results
might she not effect Every thing would arransr
itself in order, as it were OF course, and The whole
! work is half done soon IA II be once undertake
IN. purge out the old leaven that you ma,
become n new lump" is the language OF script
urea figure applied spiritually by some. but
how could il have any force unless sanctioned b,
practical experience in the body Of matter? In
stinct, a more uncrring guide than our much
boosted reasoning faculty, prompts the horse Ia
eat thoms, ihi.,les, SC &c. for the purpose OF
purg,ion. IN like manner, the dog, the cat, and
| all our domestic animals, whose habits can be
noticed, wander through the fields when costlre'
| making selections Of those herbs which suiia-
| BILE TO open their bowels aud purify their fluids
\ DO We not observe that the eathered tribe, whose
| s,ornachs act by mechanical force alone, without
the solvent fluid Of the gastric juice, require the
swallowing and retaining OF stony PARTICLES IN pro.
| portion to their bulk, to promote digestion and
produce healthy tone in their fluids, by evacua-

These animals Of tho brutal race, by thus as.
ssting nature, secure themselves from epidemic
ntagion--ibough they are under similar laws 10
| those hich govern the human economy. Purga-
/ ton, which is word Of equivalent value with
| publication. appears then to be fundamental
| principle of nature. Are not the tides the daily
| and periodical purifier. Of the ocean, Are no,
| the tempcsts and tornadoes tho purgatiyes and
! purifiers of the air. DO we not habitualy re-
| mark that if this principal Of commo,on ceases
\ for a time TO operate, both water and air become
stasnanl And if the circulation Of thy blood, q
/ Man, should become laDguid, should the humors

| not removed in tune, they will soon choke up the
veins, the arteries, and every passage OF health
| and vgOr.
Il From, such unIuestonable facts as these. the
all important necessity Of watching diligently the
condition Of the stomach, and bowels becomes
self evident aud also The infinite value Of me-
dicnc, which will carry on all obnoxious nccu-
mutations from them, without weakening the sys-
TEN, and such q one is-Brandeih's Vegetable
Universal Pills., which in England and America
have stood the test Of trial, aud have performed
cures upon thousands Of helpless persons, after the
usual scientific skill Of physicians had consolsd
them with the assurance that they could do no
more. Their properties as an antblous and
a Lerent medicine are unrival!ed (; all who use,
recommend them their virtues surpass all euo-
sy, and must he used to be appreciated. The
weak and delicate will be strengthened by their
use, not by bucing, hut by removing the cause
Of weakness, the gross and corrupt humors OF the
body. They require change in diet or care OF
| any kind. Plain directions accompany each box.
so that every one is his own competent physician.
