VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL PILLS


The only kaocn medicine that at The same time pur-
ges, purJfes, and strengthens the system.
DR LIE ROY'S Pills are new medicine
IP which has just appeared, and is fast taking
the places of all others of the class. These
pills composed of many ingredients, but the
two principal ones are Sarsaparlla and Wild Cher
ry, united that they together; the one through
its admixture with other substances, purifying and
purgng, while the othor is strengthening the sys~
tenn. Thus those pills are at the same time tonic
and opening; desideratum long and eagerly
sought for by medicinal men, but never before dis
covered In other words they do the work of the
two medicines, and do it much better than any
two we know of; for they remove nothing from the
system but the impurities so that while they purge
they strengthen and hence they cause no debili-
tation, and are followed by no reaction. DIR. LIE
Rows Pills have a wonderful irfluence on the
blood they not only purify without weakening it,
but they remove all noxlous PARTICLES from the
chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus
makes impure blood an utter impossibility. AS
there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea
or sickness attending the Operations of this most
excellent of medicines, which never strains or
tortures the digestive functions, but causes them
to work in perfectly natural manner; and hence
persons taking them do not become pale and
emaciated but the contrary; for while it is the
property of the Sarsaparila, united as it IS with
other ingredients to all that is foreign and
impure it is equally the property ofthe Wild Cher
to retain all that is natural and sound; and hence
robost state of health is the certain result of their
united operations.

rgyHE GREAT PREVENTIVE E MEDICINE!

TEyHE GREAT PREV ENTITY E MEDICINE!
Il Though Wrteht'S Indian Vegetable Pills have
achieved triumph upon triumph, III the cure of OBJ
stinate cases of disease, after they had been
entirely given up, and after all other remedies had
failed, yet their power Of preUenion may be justly
esteemed their
GROWING GLORY!
Storms it is said, purify the air, but storms do
mischief also, and so far an evil. Were it
within human power to maintain the
ELECTRICAL EQUILIBRIUM
between the earth and air, there would he occa-
sion for storms, for the air would always be pure.
So Of the human body. II kept free from NOR
bid humors, the action is regular and healthy. But
if those humors are allowed to accumulate a cri-
sis, or, in other words, storm, will arise, which
is always more or less dangerous.
wRIGHT's INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS
are equally well calculated to preUent the Storm
or to allay it when it comes. But
PREVENTION is BETTER THAN CURE,
besides being cheaper and less troublesome. The
delay of day in the commencement of sickness
has often proved fatal and always renders the case
more difficult TO manage.
Let the sickness be caused by
CHANGES OF WEATHER,
high living, want of exercise, close confinement
functional arrangement, or anything else, the eff
feet upon the body is much the same-ls equally

superior to
wRlGHT's INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS.
Costiveness, that prolific mother of disease, is
caused by torpid state of the liver, which these
Pills effectualy cures By striking at the root OF
disease, Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills prevent
all and cure all. They can hardly ever be taken
