SARS1PARfLLA BLOOD PILLS
tRtHOULD receive preference over all Pills now
~ in existence:
First-Beceuse they ore composed of Vegetable
extracts free from minerals and may be taken at
all times with perfect safety by young and old, with
out restraint from occupation, temperate living, q
fear Of taking cold.
Sccond-Because they are composed Of such
medicinal extracts, as have been employed by all
the most celebrated and respectable Physicians for
more than century past, in purifying the Blood
and Animal fluid Of the body
Third-Because they may be employed as
nild active purgative, according to the quantity
tsken and their operation will not be attended with
gripping of the bowels, sickness OF the stomach,
prostration of the system, &c, are produced by
other pills.
Fourth--Because they possess combined action,
not possessed by any oher pills, mixture or prepar-
alton whatever. Their first effect is in correcting
all impurities with which the blood and fluids OF
the body may be affected aud by their gently opera
tive effect removing such impurities from the sys-
TEN.
Fifth-Because they are the terror of Quacks
and lmposters, for most persons obliged TO take
She Sarsaparlla Blood Pills, after taking their vile
and DESTRUCTIVE nostrums to counteract and prevent
their mischevons and baneful effects.
Sixth-Because they are the only pills In which
Physicians have sufficient confidence to recommend
10 their patients and employ in their practice, as
they know they are Anti Quack, Anti Mercura
Anti Bilious as well good and safe purgatlye
and purifier of the Blood and Animal Fluids.
Seventh and last-But not the least important
be because they are prepared by regular Apothe-
cary and Physician, attested by Drs Physic, Hor.
ner, Chapman, Dewees, James, Gibson, Jackson
Coke, Hare, &C., &c, which alone is sufficient tc
entitle them to great confidence.

the public, as certified to by Physicians and others
Let none condemn them until they have tried
them, and then we are certain they will not.
1t is now settled point with all who have used
the Vegetable Persian Pills that they are pre-emi-
nently the best and most elicacious Family Medi-
cine that has yet been used in America, Ii every
family could become acquainted with their Sover
eign power over disease, they would keep them and
be prepared with a remedy TO apply on the frs
appearance of disease and then how much distress
would be avoided and money saved, as well as the
lives of thousands who are hurried out Of time by
negecting disease in its first stages, or by nQtbeing
in possession of remedy which they can place de-
pendence upon.
The Resurrection, or Persian Pills.
The name of these pills originated from the cir
cumstance of the medicine being found only in the
cemeteries of Persia. This vegetable production
being of peculiar kind, led to experiments as to
| ta medicinal qualities and virtues. in half CEN
tury it became an established medicine fr the dis
eases Of that country. The extract of this singu-
lar production was introduced into some parts Of Eu-
rope in the year 1888, and used by many celebrated
Physicians in curing certain diseases, where all 9th
| er medicine has been used in vain. Early in the
| year 1892, the extract was combined with certain
vegetable medicine imported from Dura Baca ir
the East Indies, and formed into Pills. The admir-
able effect of this compound upon the human sys
TEN, led physicians and families into its genera
use. Their long established character their univer
sal and healing virtues the detergent and cleansing
qualities of their specific action upon the gandula
part Of the system, such will sustain their re
putation and general use in the American Rcpub
lie.
