THE GREAT HEALER OF MANKIND!
Sugar Coated Pills

THE WHOLE WORLD UNITED!
SICK PEoPLE, THINK! AFTER WHICH, ACT.
You'd scarce expect, at this late day,
With startling cures book to fill;
This is the case, the million say,
With the cures of Herrick's Pill
They come from East. and North, and West,
And with glad tidings the papers fill.
Because they are the cheapest, safest, best,
And superior to others is Herrick's Pill.
From Root, and Plants, and Flowers they re made;
They always curc-they never kill;
Thousands now in their graves were laid,
Were it not for Herrick's Pill.
Each Pill with sugar is coated GER
A rare discovery of matchless skill
Their like was never seen before,
Until it appeared in Herrick's Pill.
For years he's worked to heal the sick,
With JOY elate his bosom fills:
For tens of thousands now rejoice
At the magic Powers of Hcrrick's Pills.
~ HERRICK'S MATCHLESS VEGETABLE
FAMILY PILLS have inundated the world with
their popularity. Over five million boxes are used
annually, giving employment to eightv-five men
and women to put them up. Their cures are num-
Dered by thousands their praises on the tongues
Of all. Citizens of Dowagiac and elsewhere, have
rou ever used them? Put up in English, Spanish,
German and French directions. Large family boxes,
Is cents Five boxes for 81. Sold everywhere.

a few lines of Poetry for your Paper which is as
follows:
Some to THAR birth owe THAR great name
Others to ill got Pelf;
But if man crave honest fame,
He must earn that himself
Some seek renown by war and wrong
Others by laws debate:
But, commerce with her busy throng
Brings riches to the state.
The merchant then is great indeed
BY him the world is dressed;
He furnishes what all men need
Well made Pants, Coat and Vest.

In the old brick store they say.

nine, they almost invariably make
speedy and permanent cure.
