ards 10 reform them, and in answer to those
who charge her for the want Of the womanly
sympathy, quotes the passage-'<W HON the
Lord 3JVeth he chasteneth, and scourgeth

These pills were invented by the Royal College
of Pharmacy in London. They have been used
in the British Hospitals for the last fifteen years,
and by the Army aud Navy Surgeons in the Brit
ish East indies. 1t is several years since the
proprietors had their history from a member OF
the above named College, and from whom they
obtained recipe TO prepare them For the truth

years we have used these pills in our practice, we
have fonnd them TO be all thai we recommend
