certain remedy for all diseases of delicate
character, known TO the world. Adapted to
every stage of the disease, sex and constitu-

The Greatest Because the Best Fam

| ATlVE PILLS, they have succeeded in
curing some of the worst cases, of disease
ever recorded, and are daily accomplishing
the restoration of persons after having tried
IN vain 10 obtain relief from any other
source: One of the Proprietors is regular
physician OF extensive experience, who de-
votes his time exclusively to their prepera-
ton. For FEVER& AGUE, they have new
or yet failed. AT least one thousand cases
in the neighborhood of Philadelphia, have
been cured since the first of Sept, last. In
Dyspepsia, rheumatism, Liver Complaint,
Scrofula, for Worms, and all other diseases
OF children, they are unequalled by anything
ever prepared for the purpose, while for the
various diseases OF Females there is no me-
dicine can compare with them. There is
more OF them sold-they are in greater de-
mand than any other pill-and when once
introduced IN family, they need no other
medicine. Each box containing Fifty Pills,
renders them the cheapest, while they are
decidedly the best, as we'll as the mildest in
action, of any now in the market
The Editor of Mc'"City Hem," thus
speaks of them:
20 READER, you are suffering from fever
and ague, and you have never tried Wors-
dePs Vegetable Restorative Pills. Shake no
more. There is still hope for you-you may
yet be cured Co. or send at once to A.
Weeks g. Co., 10 North Eighth street., and
procure box of these unrivaled pills, which
are sovereign antidote for this distressing
complaint.

road to public favor. In the removal of the
every day ills that flesh is heir to, we know
of no better compound. We heard the 9TH
er day of desperate case of scrofulous O.
ruptions of the head and face being nirely
cured by them.
Du Sole Of the "Times," says:
tY- The great popularity Of Worsdelps
Vegetable Pills, is attributed to the just mer-
it which they really possess. They have

The means usually employed TO give eclat
to new remedies have not been adopted by
the proprietors. They have been content y
let their medicine speak for itself. 1t is now
doing it in every section of the country.

9uence OF preaching O great deal in my and

by the Bronchitis, which became so severe as
to require an immediate suspension Of my pastoral

trded, and my Bronchitis became worse, also did
my Dyspepsia and Rheumatic afecton-thus evincng
that these disorders connected with each other
through the medium of the Nervous System. In the

agent which could reach and recuperae my Nervous
