"TRCTH HAS PREVAILED"


PETERS Vegetable Pills have now been ten
years before the public. During that period they
h.ve obtained celebrity unparalleled in the history
of the most popular medicines which preceded them
or have followed in theii track. The happy combi-
nation of vegetable ingredients, to which these Pills
owe their efficacy is the result Of years Of earnest
study and experience in the properties of medicinal
substances the pathology Of disease the nature and
modus operandi Of the various fluids which minister
to the support and sustenaEce OF the human body,
and the organization by which those fluids are pre-
pared, modified, and distributed. The triumph Of
skill, and patient experiment has been complete.
Throughout the length and breadth Of our land, in
British, America. England, the West Indiee, and on
the continent of Europe, the curative virtues of Pc
ters vegetable Pills, gratefully acknowledged
They may be termed the medicine par excellence Of
the Southern States. Their consumption south Of
the Potomac, is enormous, and continually on the in

n PETERS VEGETABLE PILLS.
Hay termed universal medicine, for there is
scarcely any arrangement or obstruction Of the or
gans and functions of the human machine which
they will not alleviate or remove. When admins
tered in the early stages of congestion of the stom.
ach OF bowels, they speedily relax those organs
duce the at.endent liver and restore the sufferer to
health. Containing no irritating or drastic sub
stances, their exhibition is never followed by that
prostration Of the bodily powers which characteristics
the operation of most other cathartics and they may
be administered without the slightest fear of proiu-
cling the local inflammation so frequently caused by
the pungent compositions vended by the quacks and
charlatans of the day. e
In almost all stages of disease Peters Vegetable
Pills will be founi of beneficial effect, hut they
should always be resorted to when the first symp-
tom makes its appearance. The conquest of the
complaint will be easy and immediate. In bilious

too rapid digestion, torpor of the bowels femaleo OBJ
structons ha5tual cositveness and all other disea
ses in which purgative medicine is proper Peters
Vegetable Pills will be found unrvaled in the speed
certainty and gentleness of their operation.
Isit asked upon what principle these extraordina-
ry effects are produced? We reply that Peters
Vegetable Pill acts as purified of the blood by pu-
rifyinp the chye and other fluids of which blood is
composed. Chyle is milky fluid deposited by the
dgested matter on the coats ofthe intestines, and
which when combined with the hillary secretion is
convened into the veins and becomes the principle,
of life. This medicine acts directly upon the chyle,
from which it expels all acid particles, and all hu-
mors dctrmentalto healthy circusation. 1t clean
ses the luises and fluids before the chemic change
takes place which fits them for the immediate pur-
poses of vitality This is beginning at the beginning
TO ifnbue the streams Of life with health, it is
.cessary to purify them at their sources.
Such is the radical mode in which this medicine
performs its cures. Testimonials which would fill
volumes (maLy of them from high scientific au-
hoty) are its vouchers and it is used in the prac
tice Of the Physicians here, and abroad.
In the early months Of Spring, when the animal
and Vegetable worlds are alike influenced by the
change Of season, aperient medicines especially
beneficial. One dose Of Peters Vegetable Pills ia
ken at this season, may save hundreds of dollars in
Doctors bills during the approaching heats of Sum-
mer. Be wise in time. "Preserve and regulate :"

in its fercest forms hereafter.
