A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE

DIR. Maggiel is the founder of new medical
system. The quanttarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach. and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
ed aud eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills. and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DIR. Maggiels Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No moro nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of Maggiefs Pills rectifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in a
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous.
In fact Maggiers Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns Scalds, Chilbains, Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin, Maggiel's Salre is infaliiblc.
