TWYHESE Pills have long been known
e and appreciated for their extraordi-
nary and immediate powers Of restoring
perfect health to persons suffering under
nearly every Kind Of disease to which the
human family is liable.
They are particularly recommended to
all those persons who are afflicted with
any kind ola chronic or lingering disease
as there is no medicine before the public
which has SO natural and happy effect up
on the system in correcting the stomach
and liver, and to the formation Of healthy
chyle, and thereby purifying the blood
They arc acknowledged by the hun
dreds and thousands who are using them
to be not only the most mild and pleasant
in their operation, but the most perfectly
innocent, safe and efficient medicine ever
offered to the public. Those who once
made trial of these pills, never after
wards feel willing to be without them and
call again and again for more, which is
sufficient proof Of their good qualities.
Headache, Sick ana Nervous Those
who have suffered and are weary Of suf-
fering with this Distressing complaint twill
find Spencer's Vegetable Pills remedy

One single dose of Pills, taken as soon
as the headache is felt coming on, will
cure it in one half hour entirely.
As a remedy in Summer ant BoDR
complaints, they display their wonderful
powers to admiration and are far superior
to any thing in use for these complaints.
In DyspeDSia and LiUer Comylai,ats,
they stand unrivaled. Many have been
cured in few weeks, after having suffer-
ed under the dreadr ,omplantfor years.
In Habaaay CoSa eness, thew are de-
cidedly superior to any Vegetable Pill
ever brought before the public; and one
25 cent box will establish their surprising
virtues, and place them beyond the reach
of doubt in the estimation of every ind-
vidual. a. la
They are invaluable in nervous and hy-
pocondriacal affections, loss of appetite,
and all complaints to which females alone
are subject. They are mild in their ac-
ton, and convey almost immediate CON
yiction Of their utility from the first dose.
They may be taken by persons of any
age; the feeble, tile inlrm, the nervous
