-CATHARTIC PILLS

OPERATE by their powerful influence on the
" internal viscera to purify the blood and stimu-
late it into healthy action. They remove the
distractions of the stomach, bowels, iyer 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
gcrous diseases almost beyond belief, were they not

Their certificates are published in my American
Almanac, which the Agents below named are
pleased to furnish free to all inluiring.
Annexed we give Directions for their use in the
complaints which they have been found to cure.
FoR CosTIvENEss. Take one or two Pills, or
such quantity as to gently move the bowels. Cos
tyeness is frequently The aggravating 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, it
can be, promptly relieved 5f
For DYSPEPSIA which is sometimes the cause
of C0stireneSS 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, body6tt,7, and So,tbt, of dyspepsia
will rapidly Disappear. When it has gone, don't
| forget what cured you.
| For FOUL STOMACH, or Morbid Indcti0u OF the
Bo,cels, which produces general depression Of the
spirits and bad health, take from four to eight Pills
at first and smaller doses afterwards, until activity
and strength is restored to the system.
FoR NERVOUSNESS, SICK lIEADAcuE, NAUSEA.
Pain in the Stomach, Back, Side, take from four
to eight pills on going to bed If they do not oper
ate sufficiently, take the next day until they
do. These complaints will be swept out from the
system. Don't wear these and their kindred dis

| For SCRoFULA, ERYsIPELAs, and oil Dise0s"
ofthe Si, 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 Fills, aI
some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturate
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 pimpes blotches ulcers, sores, and all or any
of the unclean diseases OF the skin, because your
system wants cleansing.
| = To PURIFY THE BLOOD, they are the best medi-
cine ever discovered. They should be taken freely
and frequently, and the impurities which SOW the
seeds of ncurable diseases will be swept out Of the
system like chaf before the wind BY this property

the remarkable cures which they are making every
where. .teytt s. n "
LIVER COMPLAINT, JAuNDIcE, and all BiAous
Affections arise from some arrangement - either

tom. Obstruction of the duct which empties the
bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow

alternately costiveness and diarrh@a, prevails.
