DIR. RADWAY'S PILLS.

Liz. nAD w Il y 1lLLD,
If people understood theimportance Of
purgation with RADWAY'S PILLS, in.
contradistinction of purging with other
pills or powders, salts, oils, Seidlitz waters,
they would need less physicing, save them
selves from much suffering, and greatly
improve their health
aRADWAY'S PILLS
ARE PERFECT PURGATIvEs
They are aperient, tonic, laxative, stim
ulant, counter -irritant, sudorifc, altera
tive. They are entirely Vegetable, and
the only vegetable substitute for Calomcl,
Mercury, Antimony, Blue Pill, in the
Arcana of Medicine. AS evacuants, they
are more certain and thorough than the
Drastic Pills Of Aloes, OF Croton and Har
lem Oil, or Elaterium; and more soothing
and healing than SIENNA, or Rheubarb, or
Tamarinds, or Castor Oil.
AS ALTERNATIVES I6f
They exercise more powerful iuhu
ence over the liver, and its secretions than
calomel, mercury, blue pill, hence their
Importance in cases of Liver Complaints
and Spleen difficulties, Jaundice, Dyspep-
sia, Bilious attacks, Head d-ache, &c. In
the treatment of Fcvers, either Bilious,
Yellow, Typhoid, and other reducing fe-:
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 secretons the natural
performance of their duties, cleaning and
purifying the blood and .purging from the
system all diseased deposits and impure
humors. I
They differ from all purgative pills.
Their action is not local, or confined to a
portion of the bowels. Drastic ,Purga-
tive Pills augment what isscalled 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 III mbrane, pro-
duce a violent expulsion of the contents
in the bowels, but in so doing other Sc
cretions are suspended. In such cases,
the stools will be found to be light
colored and watery, and attended
with cramps, gripping pains, nausea,
aickness. By this increased unnatural
action Of the bowels, the sccretions of the
kidneys and pancreas are diminished
followed by affections of the kydneys
blapder, urethra, piles, tenesmus, general
prostration, costiveness, and Indigestion.
In active and inhammatory diseases, the
irritation produced by the Drastic Purga.
tive Pills will not only increase the dis
case, but induce liberation; therefore,
great caution is required in attacks of in
Illumination of the bowels, bilious cholic
rheumatism, gout, &C., in the kind OF
pills to take. If RADWAY'S PILLS
are taken, cure viii follow.
| There are class Of chronic diseases
Chronic Rheumatism; Gout, Enlargement
of the Liver, Spleen Enlargement, dis
eases caused by the excessive use Of Cal
omel, Mercury, Quinine, in which Colchi-
cum Goiac are prescribed freely. In these
diseases, RADWAY'S REGULATING
| PILLS are far more certain, and the pa
tient avoids the danger which an overdose
Of Colchicum would infict.
In yellow, Typhoid, and Bilious Fe.
vers, in Erysipelas, Small Pox, purgatior
is highly essential; but to administer {
dose Of Drastic Pills, the irritation they
would produce, and the relaxation anc
depletion that would follow, would bt
likely to prove fatal. In these cases,
mild soothing and gently stimulating lax
ative; that will purge and heal, soothe ant
strengthen, like Railways Regulating
1 Pills, is required. The cause of so man,
deaths in these diseases is owing to th'
want of a purgative like Railways Pills
that will purge, without depicting or inter
fering with the functions or other secre
tions: Not one in hundred of yellow
and other fever cases would prove fata
if Railways Pills were adopted in thei
treatment.
i Some advocates Of Drastic PURdATIo,
enormously hold that gripping, nausea
sickness, tenesmus, during the operation
of their pills, is a favorable sign: if thei
pills, expelled with the faces the diseases
r humors. left circulating in the system
there would be but little pain or gripping
1t is the absence of the bile and othe
humors, which their imperfect pills, fai
to purge out Of the system, that occasion
the pain By examining the stools evae
uated after severe gripping, they will b
) found thin and watery.
AVOID SALINE PURGATIVESl
d Many persons are in the habit of takin
# Salts, Seiditz Water, Magnesia, &C.,
REGULATE their bowels. This is erroneou
They succeed in obtaining an evacuatio
! of the watery parts only, leaving the CO.
e rupt humors, and that is all; but attt
9 expense of the liver, pancreas, kidney
| &C., not one atom of bile or other impur
ties is eliminated from the blood or serol
, fluid. If you are dyspeptic, or trouble
= with heartburn, sour eructions, head -ach
= indigestion, these difficulties still renal
= to torture and vex you. You do not a,
vance one step towards a cure; and Il
continued use of these evacuants are a
to accumulate and form concretions in Il
stomach. A dose of Railways Pills, on
or twice week, will keep all the seer
r. tions in healthy condition, and cure Il
worst cases of dyspepsia, indigestion, co
M tiveness, &c.
,e If gentle movement of the bowels
ic required, take from one to three; if
e, brisk and thorough purge is desired, tai
, from four to six PRICE 25@ CTS. p
