Pills. and cleanse out the disordered humors-purify
the blood, and let the fluids move on unobstructed
in health again. They stimulate the functions OF
the body into vigorous activity, purify the system
from the distractions which make disease. A cold

themselves and the surrounding organs, producing

how directly they rest the natural action Of the
system, and with it the buoyant feeling of health

and common complaint is also true in many of the
deep seated and dangerous distempers. The same
purgative effect expels them. Caused by similar OBJ
siructions and arrangements of the natural func

them surely cured by the same means: None who
know the virtue of these Pills will neglect to employ
them when suffering from the disorders they cure,
