q Ey-DR Morris VEGETABLE LIVER PILLS
are constantly becoming more and more
popular. They are acknowledged to have
no rival in the cure of such diseases as
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Fever of all
kinds, Jaundice, Costiveness, Pain in the
Stomach, Side, Head, Back, and Bowels,
Bilious Complaints, Loss OF Appetite, Sick
tism, Collie, Pleurisy, Pimples and Sores on
the Skin, Palpitation of the Heart, Lowness
of Spirits, Pain or Weakness OF the Breast
Diseases of Spine and Ksdneys, Sore Eyes,
Diarrhea or Dysentery, Cold, etc.
Most OF the aboye=named diseases may be
prevented by taking DIR. Morris VEGE-
TABLE LIVER PILLS In season, or when the
liver becomes first derauged, which carry
off, through the bowles and the secretiODs
of the skin and kidneys, those poisonous
humors that clog the stomach, bowels, and
skin, and become accumulated In the blood.
There has been as great q progress in sci
ence, and especially In that of medicine,
within the past few years, as there has in
the arts. no such perfection have they
brought this science, Eilat the medicinal
properties are condensed and concentrated
into the resins or salts of the plant, which
they extract from it, and leave the inert or
woody matter The old mode of extracting
these medicinal properties-by boiling for
long time I'm water--is found, In most
cases, TO render the medicinal qualities
wholly inert, or even decompOsing them.
DIR. Morris VEGETABLE LIVER PILIs are
composed Of chemical vegetable extracts,
mostly from plants growing In our own
country; some of these plants have direct
action ON the liver, others upon the skin,
others on the kidneys, and Others upon the
bowels and lungs. 1t Is by a peculiar
chemical combination of all these extracts
that these Pills are made, possessing the

mustered out at Columbus, had their pockets
picked in the depot In that delectable city,
losing in this exasperating manner the
money which they had just been paid, and
had richly earned by their long and faithful
services. There are many perils besetting
the path of an Ohio soldier; but among
them all there is none like the last which
they incur, in running the guantlet OF the
Columbus sharpers, swindlers aud thieves.
