An extensive triiil of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, niul Patients, has shown results surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have been effected heyond belief, were they not substantiated by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Among the many eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention: Prof. J. M. Lockk, Analytical Chemist, of Cincinnati, whose high professional character is endorsed by Jciiin McLkam, Judge of the Supreme Court of the United States. ~ - ?** Thus.

Did sp?.ce permit, we could give manv hundred Certi6catcs, from all parts where the Pills have been used, hut evidence even more convincing than the cxpericncc of eminent public men is found io their effects upon trial. These Pills, the result of long investigation and study, are ottered to the public as the best and most complete which the present state of medical sciencc can all'ord. l'hcy arc compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtue# rtiily of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical process in a xtate of purity, and combined together in mini u ni.iuiici a* iu iimiuu nil- uoi rctiuiuj. Aflin system of composition for medicines has been found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more ctllcicnt remedy than had hitherto been oIk taiued by any process. The reason is perfoctly obvious. While by the old mode of composition, every medicine is burdened with more or less of aer{-v amnions mid injurious qualities, by this oach individual virtue only that is desired for the curative, clfcct is present. All the inert and obnoxious qua!-, [tics of each substance employed are left behind, tho serf-evident the effects should prove, as they have proved, more purely remedial, nnd tho l'llls a surer, innrc powerful antidote to disease than any othermedicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that my medicine* should l>c taken under the counsel of nn attending Physician, and as he oould not properly judge of *< remedy without knowing its composition, I have supplied the accurate Formulas by which both my I'ectornl and Pills are made to tho wholo body of Practitioners in the United States and British American Provinces. If, however, there should be any Dno who has not received them, they will" bapromptly forwarded by mail to his roqucst. Of nil the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few would be taken if their composition was known f Their life consists in their mystery. I have no mysteries. The composition of my preparations !s laid open, to all men, sud all who arc competent to judge otv the subject freely ncknowlodRO their convictions ofi their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pcctoral was-, pronounccd by scientific men to "be a wondorful! medicine before its cffccts were known. Many etn-incnt Physicians have declared the same thing ofj* my Pills, and even moro confidently, and are will-inj{ to certify that their anticipations were more than realized by their cffccts upon trial. They oncratc by their powerful influence on th? internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it imu ncuiuiy ncuon ?remove mo odouiicuouv oil the stomach, bowolo, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregtilar action to health, arid, by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangement? as uo the first origin of disease.
