THERE has long existed a public demand for an
effective purgatiye pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
siye trial of its virtues has eoncluslVeiy shown with
what success it accompanies the purpose designed.
1t is easy to make a physical pill, but not easy TO
make the best of all pills 49, 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 foE
the patient hitherto that almost every purgatiSe
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
gripping pain and rev1llsion in the system as TO more
than connterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless it arise from a previously existing ObstEGc-
ton Or arrangement in the bowels. Beng purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use IN any
quantity but it is better that any medicine should
Be taken iudiciouslv. Minute directions fox then
use IN the several diseases to whish they are ape
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 forma
Of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss OF Ap=
petite, Listlessness, Irritabiiity, Bilious Headache.
Bilious Fever, Fever and Agae, Pain in the Side
and Loins for, in truth, nil these are but the con-
sequence of diseased action in the liver. AS an
aperient they afford prompt and sure relief IN Cos
tiveness, Piles, Collie, Dysentery, Humors, SeEoSula
and ScurYy, Colds with soreness of the body, Ulcers
and impurity of the blood, Irregularities IN short,
any and every case where a purgatiye is required.
They have also produced some singularly sue
eessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,

tite and yigor: They purify the blood, and, by thea
stimulant action on the eirculatory system, reno

wasted or diseased energies Of the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but I'M
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as eyerv ~purgatiye medicine reduces the strength.
when taken to excess. The thousand cases IL which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason of every
body and it is confidently believed this pill viii
answer. a better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When theiT
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when IN need Of =
cathartic medicine. Being sugar-wrapped, they are
pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, NO
harm can arise from their use in any quantity.
