practicing in the Hospital in Paris under the immediate
observation Of the renowned RECORD, of Paris and AC
TON, of London
These Pills are invariably certain regulate the female
system, and can be taken without hazard They are
known by hundreds of females in this country be the
only preparation discovered that has proved nyar
ably certain in all cases.
Suppsssions, Irregularities, &c.
One trial will convince the most skeptica and never
after will they be induced to take any other Ladies who
have often been deceived by purchasing Pills and Drops
and nostrums from
Male and Female InlPosters,
under the pretence of eecting cure medicines which in
nineteen cases out of twenty have injurious effect upon
the system, without producing the desired result or any
sign Of it, should shun Il bpeds and none but the
genuine
FRENCH PERIODICAL PILLS AND DROPS
The efficacy of which have been tested in hundred
cases. and never failed to effect speedy without any
bad result. The Pills and Drops the result of
tensive practice and not discovered by accident To euo
gse their virtues would not add to their merit We would
only say, try them. They will be sent TO any part of the
country secure from observation, by addr ssng post paid
