MAGGIEL'S PILLS AND SALVE are al
most universal in their effects, and a cure can
be almost always guaranteed. FOR BILIOUS
DISEASES nothing can be more productive OF
cure than these Pills. Their almost magic in
huence is felt at once; and the usual concomi-
tants of this most distressing disease are re-
moved. These remedies are made from the
purest VEGETABLE COMPOUNDS. They
will not harm the most delicate female and can
be given with good effect in prescribed doses To
the youngest babe. FOR CUTANE0US bis
ORDERS and all eruptiOns of the skin the
SALVE is most invaluable. 1t does not heal
externally alone. but penetrates with the most
searching effects to the very root of the evil.
