CATHARTIC PILLS

OPERATE by their powerful influence on the
internal viscera to purify the blood and stimu-
late il into healthy action. They remove the
distractions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other
organs of the body, and, by restoring their irregular
action to health, correct, wherever they exist, such
arrangements as are the first causes OF disease.
An extensive trial Of their virtues, by Professors,
Physicians, and Patients, has shown cures OF dam
gerous diseases almost beyond belief, were they not
substantiatod by persons of euch exalted position
and character as to forbid the suspicion Of untruth.
Their certificates are published in my American
Almanac, which the Agents below named are
pleased to furnish free to all inquiring..
Annexed we give Directions for their use in the
complaints winch they have been found to cure.
For COsTIvENEss.- Take one or two Pills, or
such quantity as to gently move the bowels. Cos
tveness is frequently the aggravatinR cause Of
Piles, and the cure of one complaint is the cure
of both. No person can feel well while under a
costive habit Of body. Hence it should be, as it
can be, promptly relieved.
FoR DYSPEPSIA, which is sometimes the cause
of COStiUefieSs, and always uncomfortable, take mild
doses - from one to four - to stimulate the stomach
and liver into healthy action. They will do it, and
the heartburn, ~bodybinn, and s%ottlburn of dyspepsia
will rapidly disappear. When it has gone, don't
forget what cured you.
For a Foul STOMACH or Morbid Tndction Of the
Bo,oels, which produces general depression OF the
spirits and bad health, take from four to eight Pills
at first, and small II doses afterwards, until activity
and strength is restored t. the system.
For NERVOUSNESS, SICK HEADACHE, NAUSEA,
Pam in The Stomach, Back, or Side, take from four
to eight pills on going 10 bed. IL tney 10 not Oper-
ate sufficiently, take more the next day until they
do. These complaints will be swept out from the
system. Don't wear these and their kindred dis
orders because your stomach is foul.
FoR SCRoFULA, ERYsIPRLAs, and all Dtsseses
ofthe Skin, take the Pills freely and frequently, TO
Keep the bowels open. The eruptiOns Will gener-
ally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many
dreadful ulcers and sores have been healed up by
the purging and purifying effect Of these Pills, and
some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturatc
the whole system have completely yielded to their
influence, leaving the sufferer in perfect health.
Patients your duty TO society fOrbids that you
should parade Yourself around the world covered
with pimples, blotches, ulcers, sores, and all or any
of the unclean diseases of the skin, because your
system wants cleansing.
To PURIFY THE BLOOD, they arc the best medi.
cine ever discovered. They should be taken freely
and frequently, and the impurities which SOW the
seeds of incuraDle diseases will be swept out OF tho
system like chat before the wind. By this property
they do rs much good in preventing sickness as by
the remarkable cures which they are making every
where.
LIVER COMPLAINT, JAuNpIoR, ard all Biiou
Affections arise from some arrangement either
t%6rpidity, congestion, or distinctions of the Liver.
Torpidity and congestion vitiate the bile and render
it unfit for digestion. This is disastrous to the
health, and the constitution is frequently under
mined by no other cause. Indigestion is the symp-
tom. Obstruction Of the duct which empties the
bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow
into the blood. This produces Jaundice, with a
long and dangerous train of evils. Costiveness, or
alternately costivencss and diarrhua, prevails.
Feverish symptoms, languor, low spirits, WEAKNESS,
rcstlessness, and melancholy, with sometimes in
ability to sleep, and sometimes great drowsiness;
sometimes there is seyeie pain in the side the skin
and the white of the eyes become a groenish yellow
the stomach acid the bowels sore to the touch
the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever,
which may turn to bilious fever, bilious cole, bilious
diarrhna, d~yscntery, &c. A medium dose of three
or four Pills taken at night, followed by two or three
in the mon ing, and repeated a few days, will remove
the cause OF all these troubles. ltis wicked to suffer
such pains when You can cure them for % cents.
R~HEUMATIsM, GOUT, and all ~hlf1mmdtOry Fe
rers are rapidly cured by the purifying effects Of
these Pills upon the blood and the stimulus which
they afford to the vital principle Of Life. For these
and all kindred complaints they should be taken in
mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freely.
As a DINNRR PILL, this is both agreeable and
useful. No Pill can be made more pleasant to take,
and certainly none has been made more ~efectual to
the purpose for which a dinner pill is employed
