T,ppr has long existed public demand for an

sye trial of its virtues has coneusivey shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose designed

make the best of all pills one which should have
none of the objections but all the advantages, OF
every other. This has been attempted here, ana
with what success we would respectfully submit to
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate Tor
the patient hitherto that almost every purgatlve
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow

vegetable no harm can arise from their use IN any
quantity but it is better that any medicine sh0uld
be taken iudciously. Minute directions for then
use in the several diseases to which they are ap-

as every purgative medicine reduces the strength,
