Costivcness^ Indigestion, Jaundicc, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fevers, Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability, Inflamma tions, Headache, rains in the Breast, Side, Back, and Limbs, Female Complaints, &c. &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 soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judicious use of a good purgative 1 his is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious derangements. They all tend to become or produce the deep seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses all over the land. Hence a reliable family phyBic is 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 by Physicians, Professors, and Patients, has shown results_ surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicinc. Cure* have been elfcctcd beyond belief, were thcy not substantiated by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Among iue many ominrm ^cnuauuu ?uu umc testified in favor of these l'ills, wc may mention : Prof. J. M. Lockr, Analytical Chemist, of Cincinnati, whose high professional character is endorsed by John McLean, Judge of the Supreme Court of the United States. Thos. Corwin, Secretary of the Treasury. Hon. J. M. Whig ht, Governor of Indiana. N. Lonowobth, great wine grower of the Wrat. Also, Dr. J. It. Chii.ton, Practical Chemist, of New York City, endorsed by Hon. \V. L. Maucy, Secretary of State. \Vm. B. Ahtou, the richest man in America. S. I.elani) & Co., Propr's of the Metropolitan Hotel, and many others. Did space permit, we could give many hundred *:c ?.? r .11 ...v >1.. X>:it? been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men is found in their effects upon trial. These Pills, the result of long investigation and study, are offered to the public as the best and most complete which the present state of medical science can afford. They are compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical process in a state of purity, and combinoa together in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of composition for medicines has been found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more efficient remedy than had hitherto been obtained by any process. The reason is perfectly obvious. While by the old mode of composition, every medicine 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 qttal itlcs or each substance employed arc lert behind, tho surative virtues only being retained. Hence it is icft-evidont the effects should prove, as they have proved, more purely remedial, and the Pills a sorer, more powerful antidote to disease than any other medicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that my medicine should be taken under the counsel of an attending Physician, and as he oould not properly judge of a remedy without knowing its composition, I have supplied the accuratc Formula: by which both my Pcctoral and Fills arc made to the wholo body of Practitioners in the United States and British American Provinces. If, however, there should be any >ne who has not recehod them, they will be promptly forwarded br ntnil to his request. Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few would be taken if their composition waa known T rheir life consists in their my6tcry. I have no nvsteries. The composition of my preparations is laid open to all men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of; their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pcctoml was pronounced by scientific men to t>e a 'wondetfnl. nedicine before its effects were known. Mao^etn*nent Physicians have declared tho same tiling of] ny Pills, and even more confidently, and arc will-, ng to certify that their anticipations were more than realized by their effects upon trial. They operate by their powerful inflnenoe on the. ntemal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it nto healthy action ? remove the ob#t*iicttoas of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other 6rgans of the 1A/1. a.?? 4U?:_ : 1? --aJ C?lav iwwuujj men uic^uitu ncuuu ui uvmuiy ?uu jy correcting, wherever they exist, such derange-.
