The Commander-in-ch chief relies with con-
fidence upon the loyal spirit OF the Canadi-

facts, and feels assured that If necessary

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
Headache. Scrofula, Scald Head. Rheuma-
tism. Collie. Pleulisy, 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
Oiarlhea or Dysentery, Cold, etc.
Most of the above-named diseases may be
PREVENTED by taking DIR. Morris VEGE-
TABLE LIVER PILLS in season, or when the
liver becomes first deranged, which carry
of, through the towles and the secretions
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 progress in sci
ence, and especially In that of medicine,
within the past few years, as there has in
the arts. To such perfection have they
brought this science, that the medicinal
properties are condensed and concentrated
into the resins or salts of the plant, which
they extract from 1t, and leave the inert or
woody matter. The old mode of extracting
these medicinal properties-by boiling for
a long time in water-is found, in most
cases, to render the medicinal qualities
wholly inert, or even Gecomposing them.
DIR. Morris VEGETABLE LIVER PILLS 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
towels and lungs. IL is by peculiar
chemical combination of all these extracts
that these Pills are made, possessing the
most extraordinary efficacy for curing the
above named diseases.
