The Great Need Supplied pills have been
swallowed in millions. Salvcs have been rubbed
in by the pound. DIR. MAGeIKs's two grand
specifics are putting an end to this wholesale
system Of medication. One Of his famous pills
is a dose. bsx of his he aiing salve is Of more
value, as a remedy for ulcerous and erupiive
diseases, than ships cargo of the ointments
advertised to cure everything. but are all, in
fact, either useless or deloterious.
DIR. MAGGKIL's motto is oOSoRsrRArIcS. He
has placed in the smallest compass the active
principle of the most potent vegetable specifics.
There is no mineral in his Pills-they do not
gripe-they do not enfeeble. They create a
vigorous appetite. and corTespOndinglystrengt
en- the digestion. They tune the liver. clear
the head and steady the nerves.
No form of scrotnlous disease can resist the
disenSecient operation Of the Salve. Tumor
Assesses. Salt Rheum. Boils, Pimple,. Pus-
tules. etc. are thoroughly eradicated by this
unrivaled medicine. In act.;MAGGIEL's Dill
Ious, DTsPEPTIc and DIARRHEA PILLS cure

liver up, for justice, some ,contumacious
hedgling that refuses TO operate on the
Communist principle of having its gath

which dresses its plumags under official
supervision; but unless in cases where
the refractory disposition is incurable
justice is seldom troubled. The pigeon
is too sharp to repeat the foolish trick of
