They differ from all purgative pills. Their ac-
ton is not local, confined to portion of the
bowels, Drastic Purgative Pills augment what
is called the peristatic movement of the bowels
by irritating the coats of the intestines.
| A large dose of the Drastic Pills will by irritat-
| ing the mucous membrane, produce a violent eX-
pulsion of the contents of the bowels, but in SO
doing other secretions are suspended In such
cases, the stools will be found to be colored
and watery, aud attended with cramps, gripping
pains, nausea, sickness By this increased un-
natural action of the bowels the secretions of the
kidneys, bladder, urehra, piles, tenesmus, gener-

but to administer dose of Drastic Pills. the pur-
cation they would produce and the relaxation and
depletion that would follow, would be be likely to
prove fatal. In these cases, mild soothing and
gently stimulating laxative, 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, that
will purge, without depicting interfering with

ly hold that gripping, nausea, sickness, tenesmus,
during the operation of their pills, is favorable
