regard to your pills l am firmly persuaded that

clined TO give them. Six months ago they were
scarcely known here, and yet at present there is
no other medicine that can compare with them IN

rangement OF the BllIary organs, and obstinate
constipation of the bowels, know of no aperient
more prompt and etficacious and have had con-
siderable experience in all these complaints

for weekly individuals and that they may be civ

those injurious consequences which SO frequently

the whole consider your Vegetable Pills an In

The principle Of purifying the body by purg-
ing with uegetable phySic is becoming more and
more understood as the only sensible method by
which sound health can be established. Hun
dreds of individuals have become convinced of
this doctrine, and are daily acknowledging the
practice to be the best ever discovered. Now
is the unhealthy season when our bodies are
liable 10 be affected with disease; and now is
the time the state Of the stomach and bowels
should be attended to, because on the healthy
state of those organs depends the healthy state
of the general system; and every one will see at
once, if the general health be bad while that re-
mains, local disease cannot be cured.
All the medicine that is requisite 10 restore
the body 10 state Of health is Br0ndretHS Veg
etable UniUerSal Pills, which have performed
cures upon thousands of helpless and hopeless
persons. after the usual scientific skill of ply
scians have consoled them with the assurance
that they could do no more. The properties of
these Pills as ahti-biious and aperient medicine
are unrivaIled; all who use them recommend
them, their virtues surpass all euogy, and must
be used TO be appreciated. The weak and DEL
icate 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 that every one is his own competent physi-
clan. Remember, none are genuine sold by
druggists

ing.) our own immortal banking institutions, or
the far-famed Pennsylvania humbug, the Bank
of the United States. Misrepresentation, false
hood, and other fashionable practices have been
extensively resorted to by the officers of their

vile, it appears, has been in the habit of making
false reports to the board in relation to the con-
