A NEW and singularly successful remedy for the
n cure of all Bilious diseases Costyeness, 1ndi-
gestion, Jaundice, Dropsy, rheumatism, Feyers,
Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Initability lnfamma-
lions, Headache, Pains in the Breast, Side, Back,
and Limbs, Female Complaints, &C., &c. Indeed,
very few are the diseases in which Purgatiye Medi-
cine is not more or less required and much sick
ness and suffering might be prevented, if a harm
less but effectual Cathartc were more freely used.
No person can feel well while a costvc habit Of
body prevails besides it soon generates serious and
often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided
by the timely and judcious use OF good purgative
This is alike true Of Colds Feverish symptoms, and
Bilious arrangements. They all tend to become or
produce the deep seated and formidable distempers
which load the hearses all over the land. Hence a
reliable family physic is of the first importance to
the public health, and this Pill has been perfected
with consummate skill to meet that demand An
extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians Profess
sors, and Patients, has shown results surprising
any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures
have been effected beyond belief they not sub
stantiated by persons of such exalted position and
character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
p Among the many eminent gentlemen who have
testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention:
DIR. A. A. HAYES, Anal ytical Chemist, of Boston,
and State Assayor of Massachusetts,, whose high
professional character is endorsed by the
Hon. EDWARD EVERETT, Senator of the U. S.
ROBERT c. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the House
Uf Representatives.
ABBOTT LAWRENCE, Minister Plen. to England.
T JOHN B. .FITzPATRIcK, Cath. Bishop of Boston.
Also, DR.. J. II. Chiffon, Practical Chemist, of
New York City, endorsed by
Hon. w. l.. MARCY, Secretary of State.
WM. b. AsToR, the richest man in America
s. LELAND 4 Co., Propr's Of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and others.
Did space permit, we could give many hundred
certificates, from all parts where the Pills have
been used, but evidence even more convincing than
the experience Of eminent public men is found
in their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and
study, are offered to the public as the best and
most complete which the present state of medical
science can afford. They are compounded not of
the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical
process in state of purity and combined together
in such to insure the best results. This
system of composition for medicines has been found
in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a
more efficient remedy than had hitherto been OBJ
tanned by any process. The reason is perfectly OBJ
vious. While by the old mode of composition, ey-
cry medicine is burdened with more or less of acri-
monious and injurious qualities, by this each indi
vidual virtue only that is desired for the curative
effect is present All the inert and obnoxious quail
tiles of each substance employed left behind the
curative virtues only being retained Hence it is
self-eyident the effects should prove they have
proved moro purely remedial, and the Pills sdrer,
more powerful antidote to disease than any other
medicine known to the world.
As il is frequently expedient that my medicine
should be taken under the counsel of an attending
Physician, and as he could not properly judge of
remedy without knowing its composition, have
supplied the accurate Formula by which both my
Pectoral and Pills made to the whole body Of
Practitioners in the United States and British Amer
lean Provinces. II however there should be any
one who has not received them, they will be
promptly forwarded by mail to his address.
OF all the Patent Medicines that are offered how
few would be taken if their composition was known
Their life consists in their mystery. l have no
mysteries. ....
The composition of my preparations is laid open
to all men, and all who are competent to judge
the subject freely acknowledge their convictions
of their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was
pronounced by Scientific men to be a wonderful
medicine before its effects were known. Many en-
inent Physicians have declared the same thing Of
my Pills, and even more confidently, and are will
ing to certify that their anticipations were moro
than realized by their effects upon trial.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal vscera to purify the blood and stimulate it
into healthy action remove the distractions of
the stomach, bowels liver, and other organs of the
body restoring their irregular action to health, and
by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange-
ments are the first origin of disease.
Being sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take,
and being purely vegetable, harm can arise from
their use in any quantity.
