to the discoverer and have withstood the tests OF
the bes! chemists in Europe, but the principal in
gradients are sarsaparitla and Wild Cherry, each
concentrated 10 powerful essence, for succeed
ing in which he received the prize offered by the
college of Pharmacy in Paris
The difficulty with purgatives has arisen from
their debilitating influence on the digestive Or

ing again necessary each counteracting the other.
The Vegetable Universal Pills at once tone and
strengthen the system, open the pores, act upon
the liuer and discharge the stomach, removing
only impurities and leave the system free from
disease, SarsaparlHa as the best purifier of the
BLOOD, which is the life, while as tonic Wild
Cherry, is without rival, DR.. LA Roy has so
united them as to avoid all evil effects and have
nothing but their virtues action.
These pills differ in their operations from all
other medicines, which may be tested by single
dose, ne weakness or nauses is produced butthey

BILIOUS PILLS.

For the cure OF hillary distractions
Bilious Diarrhee, Cholic, Dyspep.
sia, Costiueness, Sick Headache
Flatulency, &c.
TeHESE Pills have now been before tho public
Il for four years, and many have testified to
their efficacy from personal experience.
The idea generally prevails that cathartic, to
do good must be very powerful in lis effects upon
the bowels. These Pills, while they evacuate the
contents ofthe alimentary canal with very little
if any pain, that also operate upon the secretions
in purifying the blood exciting insenslbIe perspi-
ra tion, and promoting the secretions of the kid
neys. These Pills are very important to be TAX
on in connection with my Sarsaparilla, as they
cooperate with it in removing those affective dis
eases. 1t is necessary that ono or two doses
should be taken weekly while the patient is under
4 course ofthe Sarsaparilla.
They Gun also be safely relied on in cases of
worms in childrin. GT Price 25 cents per Box. IN

difficulty in breathing. These symptoms in

that fearful stage where the cold night sweats

of the spirit from the body. At this time he com

single bottle, he restored to complete health,

sweats, by the of Eastman's concentrated

A Cow exposed to the severity of the weather
in cold winter days, from morning Till night,
without shelter will take little exercise but stand
shivering with cold, not being able to lie down
comfortably on the cold, melting snow. 1t is a
mistaken notion that cattle and sheep should be
much exposed to render them hardy Some
farmers say that they leave their cattle out be-
cause their business calls them from home, this
is poor excuse. 1t would be much better to
turn their cattle out for water only once each
day, and tie them up Immediately after drinking,
than to leave them all day exposed to the open
air
