In , very few are the diseases which a purgative medicine !s not more or less required, and much sickness and sepring ee be prevented if a harmless bat e Cathartic were more freely used. No person can feel well whilea costive habit of body prevails; besides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judicons use of a good purgative. This {s alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Bilious derangements. They all tend to become or produce the — seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses al) overthe land. Hence areliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, and this Pill has m perfected with consummate skillto meet thatdemand. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, and Pa- tents, has wa results surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cures heve been effected beyond belief, were they not sub- stantiated by persons of such exalted positions and character as to forbid the suspicion of un- Among the eminent gentlemen who have testi- fied in favor of these Pills, we may mention: Doct, A. A. HAYES, Analytical Chemist of Boston, and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high Professional character is endorsed by th e Hon. EDWARD EVERETT, Senator of the United States ROBERT C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives tea LAWRENCE, Minister Plen., to n, {JOHN B. FITZPARICK, Catholic Bisho) of Boston; also Dr. J.R.

These Pills, the result of lon; investigation and study, ere offered tothe public asthe best and most complete which the present state of medical sciencecan 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 com- bined together in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system’of composition for medicines has 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 old mode of composition, every medicine is bur- dened with more or less acrimonious and injuri- ous qualities, by this each individual virtue only that ls desired for the curative effect is present. Ali the inert and obnoxious qualities of each sub- stance employed are left behind, the curative virtues only being retained. Hence it ts self evi- dent the effects should prove as they bare proved, more purely remedial, and the Pills a more ets erful antidote ‘o disease thad any other medicine keown to the world. ‘They operate by thetr powerful Infiuence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it futo healthy action—remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other orcans of the body, restoring theirirregularactionto health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de- rangements as are the first origin of disease.

SOMETHING WORTH KNOWING !—By using Professor Wood’s Hair Resgorative, gray haircan be permanently restored to its origunt color. The subjoined certificate was received from Johnson & Stone, Gardner, Me , and is but one of the many instances that are dally coming to our knowledge of its wonderful effects. It is no nee pepesmstesl, but a self-evident trath, as hundreds of our community can testify —Bus- tom Herald. GARDNER, Me, June 22, 1852 Mr. H. Dres—Dear Sir: I have used two bot- les of Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative, and can truly say it 1s the greatest discovery of the age for restoring and changing the Hair. Before using it I was a man of seventy. My hair has now at. tained its original color. You can recominend it to the world without the least fear, as my case was one of the worst kind Yoursrespectfully, DAN’L N. MURPHY CaR_ixe, Ill., June 27, 1853. Ihave used Prof. O. J.
