ANTI-DYSPEPTIC PILLS!

0tF NO MERCURY go
1T is wen known that diseases often arise from
a foul and disordered state Of the stomach and
bowels; and If this condition is promptly attended
to and relieved, that health will be Immediately
restored. And nothing more efeetual can be re-
sorted to than two or three good active doses OF
puTgative medicine; and there is nothing more
suitable than piIls of a proper character. The
public have in these vegetable pills the article pre-
scented to them, which possesses the qualities cal-
culated to render the most important service in
cleansing the alimentary canal; they will operate
with sufficient force. and still with safety
there is no Ingredient in them that will render
them dangerous as TO taking cold or cause any
particular care in diet necessary. They have been
used by the proprietor with abundant success in
an extensive medical practice for many years
He can therefore confidently recommend them
to the public patronage. It Is not vainly pretend
ed that they will cure all diseases, but they viii
answer the purposes for which they are offered p
well as any puFgntive medicine that can be PEo4u
ced; and 81 being taken when that description o.
medicine is needed, may save person from tnrea'
tened disease &C q very small expense and Wlthou
loss Of time. A person can take them witkou
any interruption Of his customary employment.
