FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A

THERE has long existed a public demand for an
effective ~purgatiye pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
sive trial of its virtues has conclusiycly shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose designed.
1t is easy TO make a physical pill but not easy to
make the best Of al pills one which should have
none of the objeo ansss, bat all the advantages, OF
every other. This has been attempted here, and
with what success We would respectfully submit to
the public decision. IL has been unfortunate for
the patient hitherto that almost every purgative
medicine IS acrimonious and irritating 70 the bow
els. This is rot. Many of them produce so much
griping ppin and revulsion IN the system rs TO more
than eounterbalanoe thg good to be derived from
them. These 1,Hs produce no irNtatlon or pain,
unless il arise from a 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
use in the several diseases to which they are APP
plicable are given on the box, Among the COM
plants which have been speedily c,Tsdby them, we
may menescn liver, Complaint, in lbs various forms

They have also produced some singularly sue
cessfui cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitation Of the Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They. should be freely
takO in the spring oGtise year, to purify the beod
and prepare the systera for the change Of seasons:
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action. and restores the appee-
tte and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action ON the circulatUy system, reno
vata, the strength Of the body, and restore the
wastod.or diseased ,~energies of the whole organism
Hence an occasional dose. is, adyantsgeOns, even
though no serious derangsnent exists; but an-
necessary dssirs. sSeaad never be carried too iarr
as every pusaatiye medicine reduces the strength,
when takente excsss. The thousand cases in which
a. physic is regssed cannot be enumerated here, but
tney suggest. themselves 10 the reason Of every
body and it is confidently believed this pill will
answer a better purpose than any thing which has
hitnorto bean available to mankind. When their
virtues ae once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need OF a
cathartic medicine. Being sugar-wrapped they are
pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no
harm can arise from their use in any quantity.
