To overcome the well-grounded and
reasonable objections of the more intel

pounds, DR.. Z. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.
Y, some time ago, decided to make bold
departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers of put-up medicines for do
nestle use, and so has published broad
cast and openly to the whole world, full
and complete list Of all the ingredients
entering inee-the composition of his widely
celebrated hedicMes. Thus he has taken
his numerous patrons and patients into
his full EOnf&ence. Thus too he has re-
neutrality-suspicious. from among secret
noStrRnSof doubtful merits, and made
themLfenledieS Of KnOlO1l Composition.

the ingredients composing it, but a small
book mas been complied from numerous
standard medical works, of all the different
schools Of practice, containing very numer-

book it will be learned that DR.. Pierce's med
