9acalth Ncpcnds on Pure

Blood. Brandreth's Pills purify the Blood no
disease can resist their iudicious uso Mild opc-
ration with successful effect are the popularity Of
Branircth's Pills Our race are subject to re-
duuiancy Of yitotcd bile, at this season, and it is
rs dangerous as it is prevalent, but Brandreth's
Pills afford an invauibc and efficient protection
by their occasional use we prcycnt the collection
of those impurities, which, when in sufficient
quantities, cause so much danger to the body's
health. They soon cure liver complaint, dyspcp-
sia, loss Of appetite, pain in the head, heart burn
pain in tho breast bone, sudden faintncss and
tivcncss. In brief, Brandroth's Pills work their
way to the very roots Of the disease, cleansing in
their passage, removing every unhealthy accumu-
laton till the blood i, purified the whole system
renovated, and the functions and duty of life be-
come pleasure, where before they had been sad
and weary burdens often when nothing has re-
levci vomiting of the most serious character,
whether from sea sickness or otherwise, whore the
rctching has been appalling, single dose Of four
Brandreth's Pills has Mt once cured and the pa
tient has fallen into a sweet sleep. When the mind
cannot collect itself when the memory fails
when it is an effort to fix the attention when our
sleep Is broken and Qua waking hours harrasscd
with forebodiugs of evil then Brandrcth's Pills
should be used. If these warming remain unhccd-
ed, rheumatism, consumption, disease of the heart
bilious affections, iaundce, dropsics, piles, apop-
leXics and costivencss will suddenly present thcm
selves. These, Brandreth' Pills would have pre-
vented, but nevertheless these they they will also
cure. Use them at once do not let prejudice pre-
vent the use of this simple but potent remedy.
BRANDRETH'S THEORY OF DISEASE.
Never extract blood Blood is the life BY abstract
ing it in painful diseases you may occasontho pa
tcnet ase, but remember this is only the relax
alton or lessening the power to feel And by thus
taking away natures tools, you may prevent her
from fully repairing the ravages of Inflammation,
and convert what might only have been the sick
ness of a few days or weeks into a chronic aIec-
ton of months and years.
BRANDRETH'S PILLS ACCORD WITH NATURE
Natures remedy in fact. When sudden, acute or
continued pain occurs from any cause, then to in
sure a quick return to health, you must use Bran
drcth's Pills, which will soon relieve every organ
from undue pressure, and remove those humors
whose presence often occasion such terrible suffer-
ing.
