The startling drawback on ne arly all Medical
Agents has ever been that in their process of
purgation and publication they have also.
DEBILlTATED THE SYSTEM. Hence.
purgatiye medicines have alw avs been regar.
ded at best as a necessary euil, patients resort
ing to them for the relief of ole disease at
the expense Of another. To obviate this ply.
sicians have long sought for an Agent that
would at the same time PURGE, PURIFY &
STRENGTHEN, but their { forts were near
~ fruitless, and they had almost despaired of
success when the labols of science and re.
search were re wsrded by discovery which
fully realised the fondest desires of the med
ical faculty. This important desideratum is
named
Dr.. LIE 0y's Vegetable Universal Pills,
which purify the blood and remove all corrupt
and uifiated hum0rs and unhe0M aceunuIo-
tons from the body in a manner Eever before
rvsled. and which yet produce no veakness
or hssitude whatever. but onthe contrary tone
the stomach and iIvigorate the constitution
during the progress of their operations DR.
lie Roy's Pills in fact unite those heretofore
;rreconclable but most desirable qualities,
Evacuation and Mrigoration, for they are at
the same time Strengthening Purgative and
a Purifying Tonic. The two principal ingrs-
dients in lie Roy's Pills are
Wi'd Cherry and Sarsoporilla, ~
so prepared that each promotes the beneficial
effect of the other, the fermer Strengthening
while the latter, through its union with vaii-
Gus vegetable ingredients, evacuates and pu-
lIhes; and hence their operations are attend
ed by no reaction or subs, quent oostyeness.
DIR lie Roy Pills are the most active and
searching medicine existence. They not
only operate on the blood, but also on the
chyle. (which the blood is formed, and this
secures good blood from the fountain head,
moreover they produce neither nausea, grip
ing Or debility, and as family medicine they
have no rival.
