FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF
FAMILY PHYSIC.

THERE has long existed a public demand FOL m
# ctive purgative pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
sivc trial of its virtues has cOnclusivcly shown with
what success it ~accouplshes the purpose designed.
1t is easy to make 4 physical p7H, but not easy to
make the best of all pills one which should hayo
mono of the objections, bat all the advantages, Of
every other. This has been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully submit 20
the public decision. 1t has been unfortunate IG
the patieGt hitherto that almost every purgatiye
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
gripping pain and revulsion in the system as to more
than countsrbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
Unless it arise from IA previously existing obstruc-
dOn or arrangement in the bowels. BENG purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from Their use IN any
quantity but it Is better that any medicine should
be taken j~udiciously. Minute directions for Their
use in the several diseases TO which they Sre APP
plicable are given on the box. Among the com
plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we
maY mention Liver Complaint, III its various forms
of Jaundice, Indigestion, Lauguor and Loss OF AP'
petite, ListlessnesS. Irritahility, Bilious Headache,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain III The Sde

sequence Of diseased action i'll the liver. AZ Ill

Ulcers and impurity of the blood in short, an!
and every case where a purgative is required.
They have also produced some singularly sue
cessfnl cures in rheumatism, Cont, Dropsy, Grave,
ErYsipelas, Palpitation Of the Heart, Pains in tho
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should ba freely
taken in the spring of the year, TO purify the blood

bowels into healthy action. and restores the ape
lite and yigor. They parity the blood, and, by then
stimulant action on the eli culatorv system reno
vate tie strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole ORGANISM
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, eTeh'
though no serious arrangement exists; but ar
necessary dosing should never be carried To lI'
as every purgative medicine reduces the strehg!I'
when taken to excess. The thousand casesln wm'u
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here oI
they suggest themselves to the reason OF every
body; and it is confidently believed this phi, WIZ

virtues are once known, she public will no iongeS
doubt what remedy to employ when in need Oh"
cathartic medicine. Boins sugar-wrapped they S'
pleasant TO take, and being purely vegetable no
harm can arise from their use in any quantity,
