PETERS' CELEBRATED VEGETABLE PILLS. 1 BECAUSE they are exceedingly popular, ? which proves them to be exceedingly good. 2. Because they are composed of aimples which have the power to do good in an immense number of cases, without possessing the means to do injury in any. 3. Because they are not a quack medicine, but the scientific compound of a regular physician, who has made his profession the study of his life. 4. Because they are not unpleasant to take, nor distressing to retain, while they are most effective to operate. 5. Because they are recommended as a standard medicine by the regular faculty. 6. Because by keeping ihe system in a natural state of action, they cure almost every disease which is incidental to the human frame. 7. Because they are cheap and portable, and will retain all their virtues in full vigor, in any climate, and for any length of time. 8. Becausc, notwithstanding their simplicity and mildness, they are one ef the speediest purgative medicines which has yet been discovered. f. Because they are an unfailing remedy for pro curing a good appe.ite. 10. Because in cases of spleen or despondency, by their healthy influence on the excited state of the body, they have a most happy effect in calming and invigorating the mind. 11. Because they effect their cures without the usual attendants of other pills, sickness and gri pings. 12. Because as well as being an unrivalled purifier of the genexal system, they are a sovereign remedy for sick head ache. 13. Because theydiffer from the majority of me dicine, in the fact that the more they are known the more they are approved. 14. Because as their application creates no debility in the system, they may betaken without producing any hindrance to business or the usual pursuits of every day life. 15. Because when once introduced into a family, or a village, they almost immediately take the prece dence of all other medicines in general complaints 16. Because anumberof the wonderful cures they "lave effected, can be substantiated without any indue means being resorted to, to procare invalid cstimonies. 17. Because their composition is such, that they .re equally applicable to the usual diseas ?? of warm, :old, or temperate climates. 18 Because two or three are in general sufficient .or a dose ? so that, as is the case with the generality of patent medicines? the patient is not compelled to make a meal of them. 19. Because each individual pill is put up under the immediate superintendence of the Proprietor, so that no mistake in the composition or quantity can possibly occur through the carelessness of a less in terested agent. 20. Because they purify the frame without debili tating the system. 21. Because, notwithstanding their immense pop ularity, no person has ever ventured to raise against them the breath of censure, which would not have been the case, if envy could have discovered in them a single flaw to cavil at. 22. Because ? (and this fact is of the utmost im portance?) ladies m a certain situation may take them, (not more than two or three at a tnnehowev ever :) without in the slightest degree incurring the lazard of abortion. Were the virtues of PETERS' INESTIMABLE PILLS confined to this desirable 3iid alone, it would give them a decided advantage yver the medicines of all competitors, as in no cases is there more danger to be apprehended, or for which so few remedies have been discorered, as the one referred to. 23. Because while they are so efficient in their operations with adults, they may at the same time be administered to children, and even to infants, m small quantities, half a pill for instance, without the slightest danger. 24. Because their virtues are acknowledged* to stand pre-eminent, for their toothing influence upon young ladies while suffering from the usual changes of life, as directed by ihe laws of Nature. 25. And lastly, because they are acknowledged to be an almost ln&Hible remedy for Bilious Fever, Fever and A* ue, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Jaun dice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Lowness of Spirits, Piles, Colic, Heart burn, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bow els, Flatulence, Habitual Costiveness, Loss of Appe tite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels, where a mild but effective me dicine may be requisite. In short, the general voice of the community has decided that Dr. PETERS' VEGETABLE PILLS is one of the happiest discoveries of modern days, and altogether unrivalled as a general soother of bodily afflictions. 8CT Be careful and enquire for Peters' Vegetable Pilia- ? they are sold in Columbia by A- FITCH.
