mnistration will prevent much pain and suf-
fering. and many valuable lives
These Pills were compounded by DR.. Cor
don after years of study and careful observa
ton upon the nature Of different medicines,
and the effect wi ich they produce upon diff
ferent constitutions IN various forms of dis
ease. They have been extensively used by
some of our most eminent Phys Clans, and by
many private families for several years; and
such has been the satisfaction which they
have given. that it is firmly believed that the
vegetable kingdom DOES not furnish any ma
terials for purgative medicine. which sur
passes for general use, those of which these
pills are composed. They do not contain
Calome, Mercury Or any mineral preparation;
but are composed Of concentrated vegetable
extracts, carefully prepared and SO combined
as to be Certain, Safe and Easy in their oper
alton ,-sho,.ld it be otherwise, the stomach
an,l bow els contain foul and acrid bilious mat

medicine.
These Pills do not require particular atten.
ton to diet Or drink; and may be taken at all
times when most convenient without the fear
of increased liability to take cold.
1t is asserted by many that Fevers, and in
fact, all diseases are caused by an impure
state of the Blood. The impurities which
sav pass of by the bowels and various 9th
err outlets. being retained in the blood, ren>
ders it unfit for the nourislment and support
of the different parts OF the body. This
produces disease-and tina: part of the sys-
TEN which is weakest is most easily affected
The Bowels being the principal channel
through which great portion Of the Impuri-
ties are dscharged,t is evident that whatever
acts benefcially on then must be conducive
to health. And AS the Bowels are the most
effectual, and in fact almost the only way by
which a general impression can be made up
on the system, it is perfectly reasonable to
suppose that nearly all diseases will be cured,
or at least, much benefited by judcous use
of purgative medicines. II a physician is
called TO a patient, what is the first thing
donel He prescrbes dose Of purgatve
medicines; and then, after day or two, il
the patient is no better, he gives him another
dose Of purgatve medicine, and so on; doing
some other little ,hings-bnt the main rel-
ance for cure is upon the effect produced
by purgative medicines. Therefore if you
are sick, delay not, but take few doses Of
DIR Gordon's Vegetable Family Pills, and be
again restored to health Price Is cents pei
