o R RlGINAL LIVER PILLS

These Pills are not offered to the public M
novelty, or a universal panacea for call the ills
that flesh is heir to (" They have been extensively
used, and their virtues are we'll known to many
who will be glad to learn that the proprietor has
made arrangements TO continue the manufaotuH
on scale equal to the increasing demand This
Pills are all made under his personal supervision
and can therefore be relied as on those which bAvs
given so much satisfaction to all who have used
them. The oft repeated assertion that in bilious
diseases, and the various disorders of the Liver
there is no remedy but mercury, in blue pill or
some other form, has been proven fa.se by amps
testimony from tn ,se who have used these purely
vegetable Pills. 1t IS true. however, that to REM
edy arrangement of the bilious secretion you
must have something to act directly and power
fully at times upon the liver; but it ia not true
that mercury is the only agent capable Of pfs.
ducing this specific action. The simple combinE
ton OF vegetable principles in these pills produces
the same positive action upon the Liver as calo'
mel, and will correct the derangement Of thAt
organ as surely, without the risk Of any unpleas
ant or injurious consequences, at the same time
they have an Alternative and tonic effect, which d
the secret of their great superiority.
The circumstances under which the formula for
these Pills came into the possession of the Pro.
prietor some year ago, were peculiar, and induced
him to prepare, from time to time, such quaint.
ties as would enable him to supply the wants q
his friends, but owing to the astonishing result.
produced by their use, the demand has increased
so rapidly that he is compelled to manufacturs %
much larger scale than was contemplated, and
the unsought testimony, from various quarters, Of
the great efficacy ard uniformly gratifying results
experienced in cases Of billions affections, fever

the most surprising cures on record, and oil VINO
