80! PILLS.
FOR ALL THE PuRPosEs OF A
FAMILY PHYSIC

THERE has long existed a pubic demand for an
effective ~purgatiye pill which could be relied on 40
sure and perfectly safe In its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extcn-
siye trial Of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what success IL accomplishcs the purpose designed.
II is easy to make a physical pill, but not easy to
make the best Of all pill ote which should have
every other. This has been attempted here, and
with what success We wotld respectfully submit 70
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate for
the patient hitherto that almost every ~purgativs
medicine Is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many Of them produce so much
gripping pain and revulsion in the system Ms to more
than counterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless it 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 il 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 cured by them, we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
Of J%aundice, Indigestion, LSnguoI and Loss Of Ap-
Bilious Fever, Fever md Ague, Pain in the Side
and Loins; for, in truth, all these are but the con-
sequence Of diseased action in the liver. As an
aperient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
tiveness, Piles, Collie, Dysentery, Humors, ScrofS
ua and Scurvy, Colds with soreness Of the body;
Ulcers and impurity Of the blood In short, any
and every case where a purgative is required:
They have also produced some singularly sue
eessful cures in Rheumatism. Govt, Dropsy, Gravel;
Frysipelas, Palpitation Of the Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken in the spring Of me 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-
tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno
vate the strength Of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies Of the whole organism.
Hence IN occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but I'M
dosing should never be carried too far
As every ~purgatiye medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason Of ever,
body; and it is confidently believed this PIN viii
answer a better purpose than any thing which hA6
hitherto been available to mankind. When thsn,
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need OF .
cathartic medicine. Being sugar-wrapped they arc
pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no
harm can arise from their use in any quantity.
