they had done. In one family. four cases re-
suited IN death. in the short space oi four DAYS;
n some cases three ioar DAYS after the extlbl-
ton OF calomel, great prostration, tympanitic
condition OF the abdomen, and perioraiion OF the
bowels were the result oi this heroic treatment,
and 10 prove i, so 20 their weeping friends pos,

In this dilemma and universal CONSERVATION,

cheerfnlly abandoned their calomcl ard lancet,

Letters similar to the above and certificates OF
the numerous cases in which these pills have
acted like mnIsiering angel o the suffering in
all the diseases peculiar to this country, are al
most daily received. Were we to publish one-
halfthe remarkable cures that these pills are said
| to have performed, they would not be believed
except by those who have witnessed their happy
effects, in their subdaing and controlling intlu-
ence over disease. In Aqne and Fever, and all
the different varieties Of Bilious fevers, they net
like chnrm-rcs'orng the patient TO perfect
health in few days, without debilitating the
system, as do most preparations for these disca-
ses They need but one trial to convince any
one that they are the very best medicines ever
offered TO the public, in all the diseases for which
they nre recommended.
