DIR. SWAYNE'S
A.NIIB BILIOUS PILLS.

From the ten thousand culogcs past upOnthc
different kinds of Pills which are exposed in the
prints, and the absolute falsehoods WHICH are
told about the various diseases which they are to
cure, and mostly by those who have no knowl-
edge of the science Of medicine, either by theory
or by practice, TO cure all the various diseases TO
which the human family arc subjects too pre-
posterous for any thinking mind to believe; the
whole object OF the vcnder or quack must be TO
name all the various Ills III order to catch all, -
as none other would have the hardihood TO inn
pose such deception on Il crCdulous community
1t would be quite as laudable in me, Judging from
the virtues OF the above Pills in comparison with
others, that should say they would cure every
disease which exists un Ter the sun; but | cannot
viii not do it,-although believe their virtues
are quite equal to any, and superior to most and
| do know that our most popular physicians are
IN the constant use Of them, and that THEIR eX-
perichce AID NINE for series of years, whilst Ell
gagged in tic practice Of the profession, have pro
we'd their great virtues and beneficial effects, 0
all others is the best teacher and safest guide.
The above nan cd Pills are suitable in all cases
where Il gentle purgntivc is required TO exert
saluiary influence throughout the system. The
regular dose is fion to 4,-may be taken at
bed time if most convenient. As there is much
difference as to the amount of medicine required
to produce an'opcration, some might find one or
two sufficient where other individuals might re-
guirc double that number, and even the same
person may require more at ono time than at an
O.hcr. 1t is not necessary TO take them all the
tuc,--0nce or twi ice II week, less or more, rs re-
q1iIcd by the state fine bowels. They arc per-
lGctly safe.
No pills can have a better effect than these for
the monthly irregularities which occasionally
happen 10 women. They assist ut the COM
monccmcnt puberty, also when there $ check
from cold or mpropcr exposure, and even al the
time Of their entire cessation.

THE CAUSE OF CONSUMPTION.-Sim-
Pile as these Complaints are usually considered,

case Of this fatal and distressing disease 1t is
euindd a melancholy truth, that thousands fall

er cause than NEGLECTED COLDS. Yet we
complaints with the greatest indifference, aud
let them run on for weeks and even months
without thinking of the danger. At first ynn
have what YOU may consider slight COUGH
or COLD; you allow business, pleasure or care
lessncss to prevent you from giving it any attcn-
ton; it then settles upon your breast, you be-
come hoarsc, have pains in the side or chest ex-
pectorate large quantities of matter, perhaps
mixed with blood, difficulty Of breathing en-
sues, and then you find your own foolish ne
gleet has brought on this distressing complaint.
II then you value life or health, be warned in
time, and don't tritio with your COLD, or trust
to any 1udck nOStfum to cure you, but immedi-
ately procure bottle or two ut'that famous rem
cdy, the "BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, ;"
Which Is well known to he the most speedy cnrc

carries hundreds to the grave Every mother
should, therefore, knowits symptoms, watch
them closely, and always be prepared with a rem
edy to cure it, as many are daily sacrificed by
such neglect. AT first the little patient is selzed
with shivcrng, it grows restless, has iushes Of
heat, the eyes become red and swollen, it brcathes
with difficulty, and then comes that fearful
COUGH that will surely terminate in convul-
sors or death unless something is Immediately
riven to check it. In this complaint the "BAL-
SAM OF WILD CHERRY" is well known to
be the most speedy cure ever discovered. 1t is
indeed u precious remedy mild, safe and inno-
cent, and sure to give the little sufferer iumedi-
ate relief, and quickly restore it to safety and
health. Every mother who loves her children
should always keep it in the house and give it to
them early; by doing so you may often save oVl
lito Of one you iondly love. Remember this is
the famous remedy Of that distinguished physi-
clan, DIR. Wistar, which has cured thousands of
