lahhh ~. has long existed public demand for an
euNe pufgauve pill which could be relied on AZ
and perfectly safe in its Operation mis- 49,
prepared 70 meet that demand. ana an e,,s-.
t1al Of its virtues has conolusivelv sho,,-n ,.sth
success il accomplishes the purpose desivnad
easy 70 make IA sn physical pill, but not easy 70
or the objections, but all the advantages- m
other. This has been attempted here. and
what success we would respectfully submit ~
public decision. IL has been unfortunate foy
the patient hitherto that almost every purgative
medicine is acrimonious and irritating 70 the bow
els. This is not. Many Of them produce 40 much
gripping pain and rcvulson in the system AZ 10 more
than eounterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These piAs produce no irritation or pain,
unless II arise from previously existing obstruc-
ton or arrangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use N sny
quantity but il is better that any medicine should
be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are ap-
plieable 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 Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss Of Ap-
petite, Lstlessness, Irrtability, Bilious Headache
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side
and Lons for, in truth, all these are but the con-
sequence Of diseased action in the liver. As an
aperent, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
hveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof-
nla and Scurvy, Colds with soreness Of the body,
Ulcers and impurity of the blood in short, any
and every case where purgative is required.
They have also produced some singularly sue
eessful cures in Rheumatism Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitation Of the Heart Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely
taken In the spring Of the year. to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change Of seasons,
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action and restores the appe-
hte and vgor. They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the eirculatory system, reno-
vate the strength Of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies Of tho whole organism
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious arrangement exists; but un.
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason Of every
body; and It is confidently believed this pill will
answer 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 a
cathartic medicine

The object Of the work Is 70 operate upon

forth the sympathies and moral feelings OF the

commend ID to the attention Of every Ameri.

Catarrh, or common Cold, as It is familiarly
called, is worthy Of study, and serious enough
to be avoided, If possible. DR.. Bell says: 81
will not say that Colds are to our inhabitants
what the Plague ard Yellow Fever are to those
Of other countries; but. can aver confidently
that they usher in disease Of greater compiled.
ty ard morality than these latter"
In the danger Of Bronchitis and Pneumon-
ia, which often follow in the train of neplec.
ted cold, and 10 Phthisis Pulmonatis, the
tubercular irritation Of which is developed by
the same cause, we surely have proof and ar
gument sufficient for attention, not only to the
preventive means, but also to the curative
ones of a disease, which however mild in its
inception, is directly or indirectly productive
Of such diversified aud alarming results.
This lesson should be particularly impressed
on those who have any constitutional tendency
to Pulmonary Consumption.
The use of the Balsamic Cordial, agreeably
to the directions accompanying each bottle,
will readily Ire the most distressing case OF
cough.
Coughs sometimes proceed from a disorder.
ed or dyspeptic state of the stomach, in which
case the German Bitters should be used. In
cases OF weakness, or general debility of the
system, resulting from protracted cough, the
German Bitters will be found of great benefit.
In cases Of acute inflammation ofthe Luugs,
the prominent symptoms generally are hurri.
ed and painful respiration. imperfect arteria-
lizatlon OF the blood, cough and expectora>
ton; attended with excitement of the heart.
fever, various arrangements of the digestive
and urinary systems, prOstration of strength,
&c. The lungs may be diseased without any
of these symptoms being prominent, but the
murmur produced duriug inspiration and res
piration, and the alternate contraction and ex.
pansion of the chest, evident to both sight and
feeling, all furnish most important physical
signs in case Of disease, and should receive
prompt attention.
This disease is usually caused by a cold
settling on the lungs, and the use Of the Bal
'amic Cordial sOoE performs a cure.
The terrible fatality Of diseases resulting
from ''common cold" may be seen by
glance at tho following statistics, taken from !
