TESTED BY THOUSANDS,
WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE
PILLS,

fLlC.
LIVERY day is ibis celebrated medi-
Ia enc extending the sphere of its use
%fuIness, and every year adding to the long
catalogue of its triumphs.
MILLION OFBOXES are distribu-
ted annually without fully meeting the
demand! For some time past, the sales
have been limited, solely for want of taciI-
tiles of supply. TrnIv this is a universal
remedy! Unheralded, these Pills have
found their way into the remotest corners
of the Union, every where proving their
title as THE POOR MANS FRIEND
SICK MANS HOPE-THE MAR
VEL AND BLESSING OF THE
AGE. For a tritiiny sum-, every indivi-
dual and every family may have Health
Insured to them for an indefinite period;
and what is life without healtIi but a mis-
cradle existence.
1t is too precious a boon to be tamper-
ed with, by trying all sorts of experiments
upon it. The sick should use those me
dicines only which experience has shown
to be the best.

DIR. Notwithstanding since your a.

be in great demand lately for the cure of
Fever and Ague. Mr.. James Boyd has
a son who has been laid up with fever and
ague, and had tried various other reme-
dies, all of which proved of no avail
He determined to try your Indian Vege>
table Pills, and by using one box he is
now we'll. Mr.. T. Spencer had a daugh-
ter, Mr.. Hugh Groves a son, and MIR. C.
Nichols and three of his family were all
down at the same time with fever and
ague, and had also tried various other re-
needles without effect. Your Indian We
getable Pills soon restored them to perfect
health. / can assure you, from what |
have seen, your Indian Vegetable Pills
may be relied or for a permanent cure
of fever and ague. Yours, respectfully,

FEVERS,

Fevers, like every other form ofdisease
are only an EFFORT OF NATURE to
expel from the body something that is OPP
posed to health; it is merely a struggle be-
tween the good and bad humors for sup
remacy, and the commotion which ensues
is called Fever. The usual symptoms
of a fever are heaviness, langonr, anxiety,
signing and %yawning, with alternate fits of
heat and cold. After which the patient
complains of pain in the head and back,
thirst, difficulty of breathing, pain in the
limbs, a sense of fulness about the region
of the stomach, nausea and sickness, with
sometimes vomiting of bilious matter.
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will be
found peculiarly adapted to the cure of
all kinds of Fever, because they not only
thoroughly cleanse the stomach and bow
els from all bilious humors, but they
open those excretory vessels which empty
into the bowels; and consequently the i'm
purity contained in the circulation (which
is the cause of all disordered motions of
the blood called Fevers) is thrown into
the bowels, from whence it is carried off
by the regular alvine discharges.
In using Wright's Indian Vegetable
Pills for Feyers, the only care necessary
is to have the medicine operate copiously
by the bowels. If the symptoms are ur-
gent, from four to eight pills should be
taken night and morning until the fever
has subsidized, after which smaller doses,
once in t%wenty-four hours, will be sufi-
cient to restore the body to a state of sound
health. -
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITs.
TRemember, that the original and
only genuine pills have the written slgna-
ture Of Wm. Wright on the top label of
each box. GThe genuine Wright's In
dian Vegetable Pills is never sold in Drug
