45!R PILLS.
FOB ALL THE PuRPos4s 0HA
FAMILY PHYSIC.

Tnxsa has long existed public demand for an
effective purgatiye pill which could be relied on a.
sure and perfectly safe In its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and nm extern
sive trial Of it, virtues has conclusively shown with
what success il accomplshes the purpose designed.
II il easy to make physical pill, but not easy to
make the best Of all pile one which should have
none Of the objections, but all the advantages Of
every other This has been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully submit to
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate fot
the patient hitherto that almost every purgative
medicine Is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els This is not. Many Of them produce so much
gripping pain and rcyulsiOn in the system as to more
than countcrbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless it arise from previously existing obstruc-
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any
quantity; but it is better that any medicine should
be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
plicablc arc given on the box. Among the com.
plants which have been speedily cured by them, we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
Of taundicc, Indigestion, Languor and Loss Of APP
petite, Listlcssness, lrrtability, Bilious Headache,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Agnc, Pain in the Side
and Iins; for in truth, all these are but the con.
sequence Of diseased action in the liver. As an
apcrient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
t;vcness, Piles, Collie, Dyscntcry, Humors, Scrof.
MA and ScuSvy, Colds with soreness of the body
Ulcers and impurity Of the blood; in short, any
and every case where purgative is required.
They have also produced some singuary sue
cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy. Gravel
Eryspclas, Palpitation Of the Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change of seasons
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action and restores the appe'
.tc and vigor. They purify the blood, and by their
stinulant action on the circulatory system. reno
rate the strength of the body. and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but un.
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces the strength.
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
physc is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason Of every
body; and it is confidently believed this pill will
answer better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When their
virtues arc once known the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need Of a
cathartic medicine.
