FOR ALL THE PURPOSES or A

THERE has long existed a public demand for an
effective purgative pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. Ihls has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
siye trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what success it accomplishes 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
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
griping pain and revulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless it arise from Il previously existing obstruc-
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from then use In any
quantity but it is better that any medicine should
be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are ap-
plicable are given on the box. Among the COM
plants which have been speedily cured by them, we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
of J~aundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss OF APP

sequence of diseased action in the liver. As an

An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe-
tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno
vate the strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism.

when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but

answer a better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When their
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need of q
