PURELY VEGETABLE.

These Pills act as IN Expcctorant, Tonic
and Apcrient. One 25 cent box possesses
three times more power to cure diseases than
a one dollar bottle Of any of the Syrups,
BalSams, or Sarsaparilas that was ever made,
and a simple trial of only one box will prove
this important truth. :...
They promote Expectoration, loosen the
Phlcgm, and Clear the Lungs and other Sc
cretory Organs of all morbid matter, and
there is not another remedy in the whole
Mutcria Medica capable of imparting such
hea,ing properties TO the Lungs and Vital
Organs as these Pills. They cure Costive-
ness, produce good, regular Appetite. and
Strengthen the System.
Price 25 cents per box, containing 25 doses
of Medicine.
Call on the Agents who sell the PILLS,
and get the Planters Almanac gratis, giving
full particulars and certificates of cures.
