IHERE has long existed public demand for an effective purgatve pill which could be relied on as sure and perfectly safe in its operation This has hccu prepared to meet that demand. and exten- Si,c trial of its virtues has concuSvelv shown with what success it accomplshcs the purpose designed
 lt is easy to make physical piU, 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. It has been unfortunate for the patient hitherto that almost every purgative medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow els. This is not. Many of them produce so much gripis pain and reyulson in the system as to more than oounterhalance the good to be derived from them. These pills produce no irritation pain, unless lt arise from previously existing obstruc- ton or Arrangement in the bowels. Being purely vegetable. no harm can arise from ther use i'll any quantity; but 1t Is better that any medicine should he taken judiciously. Minute directions for their in the eyeral diseases to which they are ap- phcablc are given on the box Among the com plaints which have been speedily cured by them we may mention Liver Complaint. in its various forms ot JandlCe, Indigestion, l.anguor and Loss of Ap- petite. llstlessncSs. lritabilty, Bilious Headache, Bilious Fever. Fever and Ague. Pain in the Side and LoinS; for in truth all these are but the con sequence of diseased action in the liver. As an aperient they afford prompt and relief in Cos 1NencsS. Piles, Coic. Dysentery, Humors. Scrofua and Scurvy. Colds with of the body Ulcers and impuritv of the blood, Irregularities in short, "'' ''o c'NiH '"9t "IIeit pulgdtlNt lS lcuuueu
 They have also produced some singularly suc- cessfal cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy Gravel, trysIpelas, 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 and bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe- tie and vigor They purify the blood, and. by their stinu ant action on the circuatory system, reno vate the strength of the body, and restore the wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even though no serious Arrangement exists; but un- necessary dosing should never be carried too far, as every purgative medicine reduces the strength, when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but they suggest themselves to the reason of every body and it is confidently believed this pill will answer better purpose than any thing 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. Bemg sugar-wrapped, they pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, DO harm arise from their in any quantity
