Into healthy notion ?-remove the obstructions
of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of
the body, restoring their irregular action to health,
and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangements
as are the flrst origin of disease.
Minute directions are givenln tho wrapper qti
tho box, for the following complaints, which theso
JHIU rapidly oure:?
For Dyspepsia or Infligssilaa, Llstleit*
neu, lasner and JLoee of Appetite, they
should be taken moderately to stimulate tho stomach,
and restore its healthy tone and action.
For Liver Csmplalat and its various symptoms,
Blllsas Hsaflashe, Dick Bfletsriache.ganadlcs
or Drssa flicltaess, Hiltons
Colic and Bilious Fevers, thoy should
bo Judiciously taken for caeb ease, to correct the
diseased action or remove the obstructions which
causo it.
For Dysentery or Dlarvhsra, but one
mild dose Is generally required.
For BhNmtfia. (loot, Gravel, PmI>
plMtloa off (hit Heart, Pain la the
Hide, Hack and Ijolae, thov should bo continuously
taken, as required ,to change the diseased
action or tho system, with such cbnngo thoso
complaints disappear.
For Dreeay and Dropsical dwellings
they should do taken In large and frequent dotes
to prodtico the effect of a drastio purge.
For HapprrMloa a large dose should bo
taken as it produces tho desired effect by sympathy.
As a IHnner J 'ill, tike one or two Fills to
promote digestion and relievo the stomach.
An occasional do so stimulates the stomach and
bowels Into healthy action, restores tho appetite,
and Invigorates the system. Hence It Is often advantageous
where no serious derangement exists.
One wno feels tolerably well, often finds that a
dose of these Fills makes him feel decidedly better,
from tholr cleansing and renovating effect on
the digestive apparatus.
