has concusively shown with what success it accom-
plshes the purpose designed. It is easy 70 make
physical Pill but not easy to make the best OF all
but all the advantages Of every other This has been
attempted here and with what success we would re-
spectlly submit to the public decision. It has been
unfortunate for the patient hitherto that almost every
purgative medicine is acrimonious and irritating to
the bowels This is not. Many Of them produce SO
much gripping pain and revulsion in the system as to
more than counterbaance the good to be derived from
them. These Pills produce no irritation or pain, un-
less it arises from previously existing obstruction
or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely vege-
table, no harm arise from their use in any guam
hty; but 1t is better that any medicine should be
taken judiciously. Minute directions for their use IN
the several diseases to which they applicable are
given on the box. Among the complaints which
have been speedily cured by them we may mention
Liver Complaint, in its various forms OF Jaundice,
Indigestion, Languor, and Loss Of Appetite, Lstlees
ness Irritability, Bilious Headache, Bilious Fever,
Fever and Ague pain in the Side and Loins, for in
truth, all these but the consequence of diseased
action of the liver. As aperient they afford prompt
and sure relief in Costiveness Piles Cohc Dysentery,
Humors, Scrofua, and Scurvy, Colds, with soreness
of the body, Ulcers and impurity Of the blood. In
short, any and every case where purgatve Is re-
quired.
They have also produced some singularly success
full cures in Rheumatism Govt Dropsy, Gravel, Fry
spelas, Palpitaton of the Heart Pains in the 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 into healthy action, and
restores the appetite and vigor They purify the
blood and, by their stmulant action on the circula
tory system renovate the strength of the body and
restore the wasted diseased energies of the whole
organism. Hence occasional dose is advantageous
even though no serious arrangement exists but un
necessary dosing should be carried too far, as
every purgave medicine reduces the strength, when
taken TO excess. The thousand cases In which
physc is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the Of every body
and it is confidently believed this pill will answer
better purpose than anything which has hitherto been
available to mankind. When their virtues once
known the public will no longer doubt what remedy
to employ when in need Of cathartic medicine.
Being sugar-wrapped they pleasant to take, and
being purely vegetable no harm can arise from their
use in any quantity.
For minute directions, see the wrapper on the Box.

His power and skill who formed our myriad host;

The heavy-aden bee doth murmuring mum,
"Not TO myself alone, from How'r 70 aow'r,

And TO the hive at evening weary come;
For man. for man, the luscious food pile
With busy care,
Content if he repay my cheerless toll
With scanty share"
"Not TO myself alone"
The soaring bird with lusty pinion sings,
"Not to myself alone ! raise my song;

And bear the mourne T on my yewless Wings.

The streamlet whispers on its pebbly way,
Not to myself alone sparkling glide;
scatter health and life on every side,
And strew the fields with herb and fowret gay;

My gladstone tune;

ebrated physicians Time and money have

Rheumatism arises from different causes,
but most generally proceeds from colds, expo
