Among the anti-bious medicines the Pills
stand alone. They contain vegetable equiva-
tent of mercury, with all the medicinal virtues
OF that dangerous mineral, and without any of
its deleterious properties. In all disordoTs of
the liver, whether indicated by an overflow Of
bile or lack of it, they restore the natural Sc
cretive action. Nothing in the materia medica

One Of the speakers in the Democratic
Convention at Worcester, Massachusetts,
last week, speaking of the Radicals, said
"Why s it that they have expended sixty
thousand dollars an hour, one thousand dol
lars a minute, and over fifteen dollars sec

power. Thus it is that among the poorer
classes the prices are as high to-day as they
were three or four years ago"

extravaganza.

The first effect of the Pills is to remove the
cause Of your prostraton. They carry off from
the stomach aud bowels whatever is acrid, irri-
tating and obstructive, and as coon as this pres
sure is removed, the whole in ternal organization
begins to recover its elasticity. The bile and all
the humors of the body are purified, the circula-
ton regulated, Precipitation promoted, and ma
ture enabled to struggle successfully with disease.
