DR., Spencer'Ss VegetabIe Pills

ARE the cheapest and most approved
family medicines ever offered to the public.
They are extremely mild in their operation,
neither causing sickness of the stomach, nor
any unpleasant sensation in the system, as
is too frequently the case with medicines
given to act upon the bowels; hence multi
tudes, who have been unable to take other
pills or prepal ations Of medicine, on account
of their nauseating effects, use these pills
without the slightest disagreeable feelings.
All that is asked cf those who have never
yet become acquainted with them, is to pro-
cure one box, and the Proprietor's word for
it, they will never call for any other kind of
purgative medicine so long as Spencer's Veg
etable Pills can be obtained.
Price 20 cents per boz,

Every day new evidences Of the value of
this popular medicine reaches the ears of the
public. A friend of the Editors, contrac-
tor on the Pacific Rail Road, told him the
other day that he would not be without it on
his section on any account, whatever. He
finds constant use for it among his hands.
The great value of this article has induced
many worthless limitations under different,
but similar names; but the persons who once
use Bragg & Co.'s Liniment will not be de-
ceiyed by any vile and rascally cheat who
would palm off spurious preparation on

The whole animal creation are subject to
disease-but few die from sickness where
instinct is their only physician. The benef-
cent Creator has given the various plants
and roots for the cure of disease; and it is
upon this great truth that Dr.. Hampton ba-
ses the many wonderful cures Of his celebra-
ted Tincture.
Truth is mighty. We appeal to our own
citizens. Wherever fairly tried the same
success attends its use in chills and fevers,
diseases of the liver, stomach and bowels.
AS CHOLERA preventive, it has been
truly successful. Coughs, dyspepsia, rheu-
