DR.. Hunts Botanical Pills.

q N the midst Of general and in many instances
I'M not unfounded prejudice against many of the
medical remedies Of the day, DIR. HUNT's PILLS
have the envlable distinction of universal appro-
baton. They are perhaps the only medicine pub.
llciy advertised that has the full and unreserved
testimony Of medical men in its favor, if not the
only one which gives full satisfaction to its pur-
chasers. DR.. Hunt has the satisfaction OF knowing
that his Pills are not only recommended and pre-
scribed by the most experienced physicians in their
daily practice, but also taken by those gentlemen
themselves, whenever they feel the symptoms
those diseases in which they well know them 10 be
eihcacious.
These Pills, are confidently recommended for
the following complaints, and directions for use
accompany them dyspepsia, lin all its forms bilious

The Blood has hitherto been considered by En-
pricks and others, as the great regulator OF the
human system, and such is the devotedness of the
adherents TO that erroneous doctrine, that they
content themselves with the simple possession OF
this alacious opinion, without enquirlng into the
primary sources from whence Life, Health, and
vgor emanate, and, rice uerSd, pain, sickness dis
ease and death. Not so with DR.. HUNT (whose
extensive research and practical experience so en-
nent Iy qualify him for the profession Of which he
has been one Of the most useful members, He
contends-and moments reflection will convince
any reasoning mind of the correctness of his views
that the stomach, liver and the ociaed organs

that the blood in very many instances is dependent
on these organs, and that unless medicine reaches
THE ROOT OF THE DISEASE, the superb
cai anodynes usually prescribed serve but foils
to cover the ravages of deep.rooled maadies-
Under these convictions, at the expense of wears
OF close application the doctor has discovered a
medicine whose searching powers are irresistible,
and in prescribing, it is with a knowledge of its
being radical cure in the various diseases al

proofs within the knowledge Of hundreds, he is

remedy has been given up,
HUNTS BOTANIC PILLS
have never been known to fail in efecting two We
ry gratifying results that of raising from the bed of
sickness and disease those who have tested their
efficacy, and thus amply rewarding DR.. Hunt for

woMAN,s SMILE.

Obi what a dreary waste would be
This Joyous word of ours,
II happy hearts, the gay, the free,
Had lost their witching powers;
Or where's the charm, however bright,
That could our souls beguile,
With half so sweet, so soft light,
AS that of woman's smile?
Oh! life would be joyless dream
Of hopelessness and woe,
IL 'twere not for the sunny beam
Of beautcous eyes below;
And an earth's flowers, so taT, so sweet
Would flourish but while,
IF IN return they could not meet
The light of woman's smile!
Then if our hopes of bliss depend
On such bright forms of love,
Which softly with our spirits blend
Dear thoughts of bliss above;
Who on this earth could love to rest,
(E'en in this aowery isle,)
If that existence be unblest
With Woman's heavenly smile
