PODOPHYLLIN PILLS.

THERE has long existed public de-
mand for an effective Purgativc Pill, which
could be relied on as sure and safe in its
operation. This has been prepared to
meet that demand, and an extensive trial
of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose
designed The witnesses for the truth Of
this can be produced at any time if neces-
sary.
1t is complete substitute for Calomel
or Mereury, possessing the good proper
ties of these powerful Minerals, without
any of its dangerous qualities.
The following extracts from Medical
Works will show in what estimation the
Podophyllin is held.
