Costiveness, Indi; I gestion, Jaundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fevers, i Gout, Iiumors, Nervousness, Irritability., Inflammations, Headache, Pains in the Breast, Side, Back, and Limbs, Female Complaints, &c. &c. Indeed, Tcry few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medi cine is not more or less required, and much sickness and suffering might be prevented, if a harmless but effectual Cathartic were more freely used. > No person can feel well while a costive habit of t body prevails; besides, it soon generate*serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judicious use of a good purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and t Bilious derangements. They all tend to bccomo or proauce mo aecp seated ana jormxauuie oisiempers which load the nearscs all over the land. Hcnce a ! reliable family physic is of the first importance to r the public health, and this Pill has been perfected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Piofca). sors, and Patients, has shown results surpassing x any thing hitherto known of any mcdicine. Cures have been effected beyond belief, were they not substantiated by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth, r. Among the many eminent gentlemen who hav? \ testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention: Prof. J. M. Locke, Analytical Chemist, of Cincinnati, whose high professional character is enr dorscd by John McLean, Judge of the Supremo Court of 3 the United Slates. Thus. CouwiN, Sccrctnry of the Treasury. Hon. J. M. Wiuoht, Governor of Indiana. 7 N. Lonowo'utH, great wine grower of the West. ' Also, l)u. J. It. Cim.ton, Practical Chemist, of r New York City, endorsed by i- Hon. w. ?lAhuY, secretary 01 state. Wm. B. Abtor, the richest man in AmericaS. Lei.and & Co., Propr'a of the Metropolitan Hotel, and many others. Did space permit, we could give many hundred certificate!), from all parts where the Pills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men is found in n their effects upon trial. These Pills, the result of long investigation and study, are offered to the public an the best and most complete which the preseut atate'of medical science can afford. They axe compounded not of tho drugs themselves, but of tho medicinal virtues 8 only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical r process in a stato of purity, and combined' together in such ? manner as to insure the best fcsnlte. This , system of composition for medicines has been found B in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a r more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob. tiiui d by any process. The reason is perfectly ob1 viqub While &> the old mode of composition, evenr 1 mcd-.uine is burdened witb'.more or less of sen- . monious and injurious qualities, by this each indi- . -vidua! virtue only that Is desired for .the'eunfthro - V iir ? iil.i 1 ..-1" - i cncti id iiu mic wvi *turn ywuwjuuua 4vuu" | itiea of each aube twice employed arolcft behind, the curative virtues only being retained. .. Hence, it is self-evident theeffect? should ^prove", as thfiy have proved, more purely remedial, and the Fills a Burer, 1 more powerful anbdote. to disease than any other i medicine knowu to the/world. . - . & . f -As it in, frequently expedient that my medicine should be taken under the counsel' of en attending Physician, and as he could not properly judge of remedy without, knowing its composition, 1 have supplied the accurate Formula by whioh both ray Pectoral and jfMlls are made to the.whole body of;- .
