riOus disease the Piles, with consequent infamma.
ton of the stomach, bowels, and spine, weakness Of

tory diseases without pain or irritation, but will en-
sure an easy time, safe delivery, and sound con-
stituton in the offspring.

tains no mineral medicine; no aloes, colocynth gam
boge, or other powerful and irritating purgative.

change in diet necessary. If taken according to
the directions, a cure for life may be secured.

BRANDRETH'S PILLS.

BE UNPREJUDlCED.-L no foolish per-
sons be so prejudced against this now truly cell
ebrated medicine as TO despise this advice; let
ii be used Immediately on pain being feL no
matter where it may be, whether in the head or
feet, whether it be in the neck or abdomen, whe-
ther arising from external or internal cause, use
the Brandrelh's Pills, and rely upon it, that the
pain will 90, the body will be restored TO health
as soon as nature has received sufficient asSls.
tance from their effect
The quantity of impure humours discharged
from the body by the action of the Brandreth's
Pills, is replaced in the course of few hours
with new and pure blood, by the digestion of a
moderate meal. By purging the body with this
medicine the whole mass of blood becomes en-
Grely purified and regenerated.
That blood is the life of the body, presume
is undsputed, therefore | shall say that it being
the SEAT of LIFE, it must also be the scat OF dis
ease. If disease be in the blood we should alb
s,ract the disease only, not the blood. 1t is the
impurities which must be removed by purgatlor
to secure our health, in all states of the wealth
er, in all situations and in all climates. The
blood, like good spirit is always trying to ben
eft the body by its struggles TO expol impurities
But it is not capable to effect its own purlfcatloI
at all times TO do this it must often have assis
tance. When the blood is loaded with impuri
ties, especially in this climate, the consequen
ces may be fatal, provided the blood is not Purl
! fed at once, and this is sure TO be effected
Brandreth's Pills are used.
