Anew and singulnrlv successful remedy for the
curc of all Bilious 'lisoases ? Costivcncss, Indigestion,
Jaundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fevers,
Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability, Inflammation!).
Hendnrhp. Pnins in 1 ho Rrrnst. Siili?. Haplc.
and Limbs, Female Complaints, vtc. &c. Indeed,
very few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medicine
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
body prevails ; besides, it sonn generates serious and
often fatal diseases, which might have beeii avoided
by the timely and judicious use of ii good purgative.
This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms,and
Bilious derangements. .They all ten<l to become or
produce the deep seatcd: and formidable distempers
which load the ncarsca all over the land. Hence a
reliable family physic w of the first importance to
the public health,' and this Pill has been perfected
with consummate skill to meet that demand. An
extensive trial of its virtues l?y Physicians;-Professors,
and Patients, has shown results surpassing
any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures
have been elloeted lierond lielipf wnre tliei* Tint sub
stantiatcd by persons of such exalted position and
character an to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Among the many eminent gentlemen who have
tcstilied in favor of these Pills, wc may mention :
Prof. J. M.' Lockk, Analytical Chemist, of Cincinnati,
whoso high professional character is endorsed
by
Jonx McLean-, Judge of the Supreme Court of
the United Statos.
Tiios. Corwin, Secretary of the Treasury.
Hon. J. M. Whioht, Governor of Indiana,
N. LONOWOitTir, great wine grower of the West.
Also, Hit. J. U. Chilton, Practical Chemist, of
New York City, endorsed by
Hon*. W. L. Maucy, Secretary of State.
Wm. B. Astoii, the richest man in America.
S. Lei.and & Cojjf I'ropr's of the Metropolitan
Hotelj-iyid many, pthers.
Did" space permit, wc could give mam' hnndred
certificates, from all parts where the Pills hire
been used, but evidenee eyen more convincing than
the experience of eminent public men ia found in
their effects upon trial.
mcse i ins, tne result or-iong investigation ana1
study, arc offered to the pulific as the best and
most complete which the present state of medical
science can "afford. They are compounded not of
the dru^s themselves, but of the medicinal virtues
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical,
.process in a state of purity, and combined together
in such a manner as to insure the best results. This
system of composition Tor medicines litis been found
in the Cherry I'ectoral and Pills both, to produce a
more efficient remedy than hail hitherto been- obtained
by any process. The reason is perfectly obvious.
While by the old mode of composition, oveTT'
mcdicinc is burdened with more or less of acrimonious
and injurious qualities, by this each individual
virtue only that is desired for the curative
effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious qualities
of each substance employed are left behind, tjbe
curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is
self-evident the effects should prove, ns tliey have
proved, more purely remedial, and the Pills amirer,
moro powerful antidote Jo disease than any other
medicine known,jto the wotld.
AS it W .frequently expedient that my medicine
should be taken under the counscl of an attendingPhjttfrij
and WUldTiGi pi'iipmij j'tldge of A

Pectoral and Pill# nrc made to the whole popy ot
Practitioners in tBe United StfttM nnd British American
Provinces. If, however, there should be any
one who" haa not received them, they
promptly forwarded bv mail to bin request.
Of all the Patent Jdedicines that aro off'orod, how
few would bo takon if thpir composition vyas known I
Their life consists in their .Vnystery. I have no
mysteries.
Tho06oipositinn. of my preparations is laid open'
to all fnen, and all who are competent to judge on
the subject freely acknowledge theipifonvictions of}
their intrinsic msrlta. The Chorry Pectoral 'was
pronounced by scientific meft' .'ifo bo'a wonderful1
medicine before its effects wwd rnntm. . m?? m>.
