DIR. RADWAY'S PILLS.

LII people understood the Importance OF
purgation with RA DN7AY'S PILLS. in
contradistinetion of spursing with other
pills or powders, salts, oils, Seidlitz waters,
they would need less ph ysicing, save them
selves from 1ni.ch suffering, and greatly
improve their health.
RADWAY'S PILLS
ARE PERFECT RaATIv vEs.
They are aperient, tonic, laxative, stim
alant, counter irritaRt, sudorihc, altera
tive. They are entirely Vegetable, and
the only vegetable substitute for Caloniel,
Mercury, Antimony, Blue PHI, in the
Arcani of Medicine AS evacuants, they
are more certain and thorough than the
Drastic Pills OF y ioes, or Croton and Har
lem Oil. or Elateriuni; and more soothing
and healing than SIENNA, or Kheubarb, or
Tamarinds, or Castor Oil.
AS ALTERNATIVES
They exercise more powerful iufiu
ence over the liver, and its secretions than
calopel, mercury, blue pill, hence their
Importance in cases of Liver Complaints
and Spleen difficulties, Jaundice, Dyspep-
sia, Bilious attacks. Headache, &c. In
the treatment of Fevcrs, either Bilious,
Yellow, Typhoid, and other reducing fc-
vers, they are superb to quinine. Their
influence extends over the entire system,
controlling, strengthening and bracing up
the relaxed and wasting energies, and
regulating all the secretious to the natural
performance of their duties, cleaning and
purifying tic blood and purging from the
system all diseased deposits and impure
lnm1rS. z s.
They differ from all purgative. pills.
Their action is not local, or coainsd to a
portion of the bowels. Drastic Purga-
tive Pills augment what is called the per
istaltic movement of the bowels by irritat-
ing the coats of the intestines.
A large dose Of the Drastic Pills will,
by irritating the mucous membrane, pro-
duce violent expulsionqof the contents
in the bowels, but in so doing other Sc
eretions are suspended. In, such eases,
the stools will be found to be light
colorcd and watery, and attended
with cramps, gripingr pains, nausea,
aickness. BY this increased unnatural
action Of the bowels, the sceretioas Of the
kidneys and pancreas are diminished,
followed by affections of the kidneys,
blapder, urethra, piles, tencsmus, general
prostration, costiveness, and indigestion.
In active and inhammatory diseases, the
irritation produced by tho Drastic Purga-
tive Pills will not only increase the dis
ease, but induce liberation; therefore,
great caution is required in attacks of in
llammation of the bowells, bilious cholic,
rheumatism, gout, &c, in the kind Of
pills to take: IF RADWAY'S PILLS
are tax cn, cure will follow.
There are class of chronic diseases,
Chronic RheuRiatism Gout, Enlargement
of The Liver, Spleen Enlargement, dis
eases caused by the excessive use Of Cal
omel, Mercury. Quinine, in which Colchi-
cum e oiao nre prescribed freely. Inthese
diseases, RADWAY'S REGULATING
PILLS aresdar more certain, and the. pa
tient avoids the danger which an overdose
OF Colchicum would infict.
Tn Yellow, Typhoid, and Bilious Fe-
vers, ia Erysipelas. Small Pox, purgation
is hiS,,.l,11 essential; but to administer a
dose of Drastic Pills, the irritation they
would produce, and the relaxation and
depletion that would follow, would be
likely to prove fatal In these cases, a
mild soothing and gently stimulating lax
ative, that will purge and heal, soothe and
strengthen, like Railways Regulating
Pills, is required. The cause of so many
deaths in these diseases is owing to the
want Of purgative like Railways Pills,
tlat viii purge, without depicting or inter
.rering with the functions or other secre-
tons: Not one in a hundred Of Yellow
and other fever cases would prove fatal
if Railways Pills were adopted in their
treatment.
Some advocates Of DRASTIC PURGATIoN
enormously hold that gripping, nausea,
sickness, tenesmus, during the operation
of their pills, is favorable sisu if their
pills, expelled with the faces the diseased
humors left circulating in the system,
there would be but little pain or gripping.
It is the absence Of the bile and other
humors, which their imperfect pills, fail
to purge out of the system, that occasions
the pain. By examining the stools evac-
uatsd after severe gripping, they will be
found thin and watery.
AVOID SALINE fPURGATTVES!
Many persons are in the habit of taking
Salts, Ssid;tz. Mater, Magnesia, &C., to
regulate their bowels This is erroneous.
They succeed. in obtaining an evacuation
of the watery parts only, leavinsstho cor
rupt humors, and that is all; but at the
expense of the liver, pancrcas, kidneys,
&C., not one atom Of bile or other impuri-
ties is eliminated from the blood or serous
fluid If you are dyspeptic, or troubled
with heartburn, sour eructions, head ache,
| indigestion, these difficulties still remain
to torture and vex you. Yeu do not ad
vance one step towards cure; and the
| continued use Of these evacuants are ap'
to accumulate and form concretions in the
stomach. A dose of Railways Pills, once
or twice week, will keep all the secre
tions in healthy condition, and cure the
worst cases of dyspepsia, Indigestion, cos
! tiveness, &c.
If gentle movement of the bowels il
required, take from one to three; if ;
brisk and thorough purge. is desired, taxi
from four to six PRICE 25 CTS. pc
