therefore, be responsible for any alarming

THE INVEN TOR OF a@
Iforse's Indian Root
PILLS. as-

UIHIS philanthropist has spent the greater
part of his life in travelling. having visit
ed Europe, Asia and Africa, as we'll as North
America-has spent three years among the In
dians of our Western country. 1t as in this
way that the Indian Root Pills were first dis
covered Dr. Morse was the first man to es-s
tablish the fact that all diseases arise from M
PURITY OF THE BLOOD that our strength,
health and life depended upon this vital fluid.
When the various passages become clogged,
and do not act in perfect harmony with the
different functions of the body, the blood loses
its action, becomes, thick, corrupted and dis
eased thus causing pains, sickness, and dis
tscss of every name our strength is exhausted,
our health we are deprived of, and if nature is
not assisted in throwing off the stagnant hu-
mors, the blood will become choked and cease
to act, and thus our light of life will be forever
blown out. How important then that we should
keep the various passages of the body free and
open. And how pleasant to us that we have
it III our power to puta medicine in your reach,
namely, Morse's Indian Root Pills, manufac
tured from plants and roots which grow around
the mountainous cliffs in Natures garden, for
the health and recovery of diseased man. One
of the roots from which these Pills are made is
Sudorifc, which opens the pores of the skin,
and assists Nature in throwing out the finer
parts of the corruption within The second is
| plant which is an Expectorant, that opens
and unclogs the passage to the lungs, and thus,
in Il soothing manner, performs its duty by
throwing off phlegm and other humors from,
the lungs by COY ious splitting. The .tiitdis q
Diuretic, which gives ease and double strength
to the kidneys thus encouraged, they draw
large amounts of impurity from the blood,
which is then thrown out hountifully bs the
! urinary or water passage, and which could not
have been discharged in any other way. The
fourth is a Cathartic, and accompanies the
other properties of the Pills while engaged in
purifying the blood the coarser particles o.
impurity which cannot pass by other outlets
are thus taken up and conveyed off in great
: quantities by the bowels. 7io1
