In , very few are the diseases which a purgative medicine is riot more or less required, and much sickness and suffering might be prevented if a harmless bat effectuat Cathartic were more freely used No person can feel well whilea costive habit of body prevails; besides it soen generates serious and often faial diseases, whic might have been avoided by the timely and judicous use of a purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious d+rangemerts. They all tend to become or produce the deep seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses all overtheland. Henceareliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, and this Pill has been perfected with consummate skill to meet thatdemand. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, and Pa- Uents, has shown results surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures hrve been effected beyond belief, were they not sub- stantiated by persons of such exalted positions and character as to forbid the suspicion of un- truth. Among the eminent gentlemen who have testi- fled in favor of there Pills, we may mention: Doct. A. A. HAYES, Analytical Chemist of Boston, and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high Professional character is endorsed by the Hon EDWARD EVERETT, Senator of the United States ROBERT C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives ABBOTT LAWRENCE, Minister Plen., to England t+ JOHN B. FITZPARICK, Catholic Sener of Boston; also Dr. J.R. CHILTON, Prac Chemist 0° New Y ork City, endorsed by Hon. W.L_ MARCY, S+cretary of State WM_B. ASTOR, the richest man in America. 8 LELAND & Co., Proprietors of the Metro- peliten Hotel, and others These Pills, the result of long Investigation and s.ndy, are offered to the public asthe best and most complete which the present state of medical sciencecan afford. They are compounded not of the Ciel themselves, but of the medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies extracted by Chemical process in a state of purity, and com bined together in such a manner as to inswre the best results. This system of composition for medicines bas been found in Cherry Pectoraland Pills both, to produce a more efficient remedy than had hitherto been obtained by any process The reason is perfectly obvious While by the o'd mode of composition, every medicine is bur- dened with more or less acrimcnious and injuri- ous qualities, by this each individual virtue only that is des red for the curative effect is present All the inert and obnoxious qualities of eachsub stance employed are Jeft behind, the curative virtues cnly being retained. Hence it is self evi- dent the effects should prove as they ha~epr.ved, more purely remedial, and the P)lis 8 more ee erfal antidote 1o disease thad any other medicine keown to the world. They oprrete by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate dt into healthy action—remove the obstructions of the sto sh, bowels, liver, and cther orcans of the bod oring theirtrregular action to health, and by Correcting, wherever they exist, such de- rangements as are the first origin of disease.

Hair once gray met our view, black or brown as the case might be, being the color of early manhood; and as Qneand glossy as silk, and that without any other application than the Restorative.
