THlRn has long existed public demand for an
Elective purgative pill which could be relied
sure and perfectly safe in its.operaton. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
sivs trial Of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what success Il accomplishes the purpose designed
II IL cosy to make physical psH, but not easy to
make che best Of all pils - one which should have
none Of the objections, bat all the advantages, Of
with what success We would respectfully submit 70
the public decision. II has been unfortunate fH
the patient hitherto that almost every purgative
medicine IL acrimonious and irritating TO the bow
els. This is not. Many Of them produce so'much
gripng pain and revulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalapce the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless Il arise nom previously existing obstrus-
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable no harm can arise from thor use in any
auantity but II Is better that any medicine should
DO taken judiciously. Minute directions for thor
use in the several diseases to which they are ap-
plicsble 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 taundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of APP
petite, Listessness Irritability, Bilious Headashs,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side
and Loins; for, in truth, all these but the con-
sequence Of diseased action in the liver. As an
aperisnt, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
hveness, Piles, Collie, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof-
Via and Scurvy, 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 singularly sue-
ies:!t.. cures in Rheumatism, Gout Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in tho
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-
tits 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 an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but un-
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgatyc medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason Of eyoxy
body; and it is confidently believed this pill will
answer better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mapkind. When their
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need OF
eethartic medicine. Being suSar-wrapped they are
pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable. NO
harm can arise from their use in any quantity.
