DR.. Roback's Discoveries.


We can not shut our eyes to the fact, that
DR.. Roback's famous Medicines, the Scaudi-
navian Blood Pills and Purifier, are effecting
wonde rful cures of Fever and Aguc, Dyspep-
sia, Liver complaint and Rheumatism, in all
parts of The West. Planters and Farmers
upon whose words we can rely, assure us that
such is the case, and the newspapers with
which we exchange confirm the statement.
The Blood Pills and Blood Purifier, as their
names import, act specifically upon the active
principle. of disease in the Animal Fluids.
The dstributive system of bloodvessels and
nerves, which irrigate the whole body with the
element of vitality, becomes, when that ele-
ment is tainted with CORRUPTION, d:ssemina-
tion of the seeds of disease. 1t is upon this
circulating poison, this deadly virus, propelled
through the veins and arteries to the destruc-
ton of health and life, that DR.. Roback's prep
arations act. They change the chemical chat
acter of the blood, revitalize it, render it pure
and nutritious. Graphing with and destroy
ing the very root Of a disorder, their cures are
complete and permanent. We invite atten-
ton to DR.. R. advertisement.

HoHoroy's PiM.-Among the many
obstinate diseases for which the Pills are
an assured and permanent remedy, may be
reckoned habitual costiteness. This dis
trcssing and painful complaint affects the
intellect as well as the physical system,
occasioning stupor loss of memory, and
confirmed melancholy. The worst cases
which, by the way, are only aggravated
by ordinary cathartics-yield invariably
to a course of this mild and yet active
remedy; and the bowels, once regulated
by its use, seldom require a repetitionao oi
the medicine. fz :Ess
