THERE has long existed 4 public demand for an
effective purgative pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
sivc trial of its virtues has conclrsivcly shown with
what success it accornplishes the purpose designed.
1t is easy to make a physical pill. but not easy to
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, and
with what success we would respectfully submit to
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate for
!ae patient hitherto that almost every purgative
-nedicinc is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
f.ipilg pain and reyuision III the system rs TO more
IAN Cnunterbalance the good to be derived from
i1clc. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
'alass it arise from u previously existing obstruc-
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable. no harm can arise from their use in any
quantity bat it is better that any medicine should
be taken iudiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are APP
p!icsbie are given on the box. Among the rom
rl,?!ts Shich have been speedily cured by them, we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
of JaundiCs, Indigestion, Lauguor and Loss of APP
petite, Listlessness, lrritability, Bilious Headache,
lsiious Fever. Fever and .Ague. Pain in the Side
aud l.o:ns; for, in truth. all these are but the con-
sequence OF diseased action in the liver. As an
spersnt, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
ti,e:l-ss, Piles, Collie, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof-
ufk ana Scuryy, Colds with soreness of the body,
Ulcers and ialpuri.y OF the blood in short, any
AMI every case where q ~purg.tivc is required.
They have also produced some singularly sue
cSSsiul cures III 1tneullatlsnl, SOut, i'fOnSN, bTaNel,
Ervs;rel.s, Palpitntion Of tire Heart, Pains i'll the
Sack, Stomach, aud Side. They should be freely
t4kcn in the spring of the year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system fer the change of seasons.
An occasional desc stimulates the stomach aud
bowels into healthy action. and restores the appe-
lite and vigor. They purify the blcod, and, by their
stimuiant action on tie circuiatory system, reno
vate the strength Of the body, and restore TIE
wasted or diseased energies Of the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is adran tageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but I'M
necessary, dosing should never he carried too far,
as every pursstiye medicine reduces the strength,
when taken TO excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required canuot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves 10 the reason of every
BODY: End it is confidently believed this Pill viii
answer Il better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When taeir
virtues c:e cuce known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need Of y
cathartic nsdicine. Being sugnr-wrapped they are
pleasant to tAke, and being purely vegetable, no
harm can arise from their use i'll any quantity.
