A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DR.. Maggicl is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach and psralyIe the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
ed and 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
Dr. Maggiels Pills and Salve have ushered in
q new medical era. No more nauseating avaIan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured do~n sick
peoples throats- One of MsggiePs Pills rectiies
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver

space of time short enough to be almost classed

How Brandreth's Pills Cure.

when disease is in the system if may be said
to be an intruder. Brandreths Pills are a sort of
foiice, which being swallowed, seize the intruder
and cause q disturbance, when Nature turns them
both out of her domains together. Nature always
tries to restore health, but, alas is not always
able. Being assisted by Brandreth's Pills and a
mild diet, she never fails, when this great medi-
cine is used in season. Over a hundred years has
proved the truth of this assertion. In fact, their
use insures the cure of all disease of the human
body, whether chronic OF recent, infectious or
Otherwise; because they purify the blood. and in
crease safely the action of the excreting and
creting vessels. The sick gain a new power sf
life from Brandreths Pills, as a flower that is
fading gathers vigor from a refreshing rain.

"Facts are stubborn things" says the old pro-
presenting WRIGHT'S TAR SYRUP to the pub

Colds, well as the necessity of taking the pro-
per remedies when colds are upon us. We say,
without fear of contradiction, that the superior
of Wrights Tar Syrup, for the cure of Consump-
ton, Coughs Colds, Bronchitis, and all diseases
of the Throat and Lungs, does not exist. Below
are testimonials from persons, some of whom are
kno En in all parts of the country:

Wright's Tar Syrup, purchased from you, and
was greatly relieved in two days, wholly cured in
ten. It is not unpleasant to the taste, waioh is
good point. Many years ago, reading my way
through an old library, came across the works
of that Bishop Berkely, who prophetically and
truly declared more than n century ago, thai
Westward the march of Empire takes its way,
and among these were two treaties in which ht
strongly advocated the use of Tar, ms curative oi
many diseases from Cstarrh to the plague.

Bishops arguments, and am now sure-from the
efficacy of Dr. Wright's preparation of the SAINT
remedy-that they are entirely correct.
