How beautiful are the above lines
uttered by the worlds greatest
mind! How infinite the scope of
mans power if his faculties are
well preserved. Nothing, short of
creation, is to him impossible. Our
soul is lost in admiration when we
contemplate responsibilities of this
greatest exhibition of Infinite Pow
er. Yet what is this ''quint-essence
of dust" when blasted by disease
his noble functions perverted or de-
strOyed?
AS ''all men are born free and
equal" as far as moral rights are
concerned, so likewise we hold they
should be born physically, but as
long as children must suffer for the
sins of their parent this cannot be.
That the human race has deteriOr-
ated physically is a conceded ques
ton. To restore it is an impOssi-
bility, as long as people persist in
immortality and induIgences which
are in disregard of natures laws.
The most we can do then is to
ameliOrate this condition, and cure
disease in individuals.
To this end we offer to the pub
lie, remedies which have done
more gOOd--accOmplished better
results in OverthrOwing disease
than any others which have been
discovered up to the present time,
viz:
DIR. FLOWERS LIVER AND
STOMACH SANATIVE, AND
NERVE PILLS.
The former is an infalIible REM
edy for all affections of the Liver
and Stomach, and is besides an in
valuable general tonic. The lat
ter is reliable cure for all ner-
VOus diseases and conditions, such
as Hysteria, SIeeplessness, Nervous
Prostitution, Depression caused by
OyerWOrk, etc.
These remedies are extensively
prescribed by physicians, recon-
mendatiOn which does not obtain
with any other proprietary article,
and command at the hands of the
druggists in New England a larger
sale than any other medicine.
IN HUNDREDS OF THOU
SANDS OF BOTTLES SOLD,
THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SIN
GLE COMPLAINT THAT THEY
FAILED TO DO WHAT is
CLAIMED FOR THEM. This we
hold is an unparalleled record of
success, and the strongest proof
of their excellence. AS positive
evidence we have thousands of tes-
timOniaIs which we will be pleased
to show, but which space prevents
publishing. The trial of one bot
tie will be sufficient to satisfy you
that we make no false claims. A
valuable pamphlet will be mailed
