The Citizens of the l*nion suffer much from disirders

ire free from the intluunces of these destructive
naladies, lieiice life wears fast. The fair sex,
lerhaps the most handsome hi the world, up to

lkmo their teeth and good looks, while yet in tlio
lavduy of life?such sad evils may Ik1 effectually
ciiicdied by continually keeping the blood pure
ind the Liver and Stomach in a healthy action,
then life will How smootly, and resemble plants
n a congenial clime, where an eternal spring apu-nrs
to reign. As it regaids the preservation
>f the hunuin iraiue and tiie duratiou of life,
nuch may be effected, and I say fearlessly, that

Sir:?it is with the most liauitfclt pleasure I
lia\e to inform you thai 1 have bucii restored to
iteulth uml strength or taking your Pills. Lor
the last ten years 1 suffered from u de angemont
of tiic Liver and Stomach, and was reduced io
<uch un extremity that 1 gave up luy Ship, never
expecting to go to sea any more, as I hud tried
every remedy that whs recommended to uic, hut
all to no purpose ; and had given myself up to
despuir, when I was at last recommended to take
your Pills. After using them for three months,
the result is that I am now in better health than
I have been lor eleven years past, and indeed as
well as ever 1 was in my lite. You are quit* at
liberty to make this known for the benefit of
othei*. I remain, sir, yours respectfully,
