FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A FAMILY PHYSIC, "P,HERE HAS LONG EXISTED A PUBLIC demand for an effective Purgative Pill which sould be relied on as sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has been prepared to meet that demand, and an extensive trial of its virtues has onclusively shown with what success it accom plishes the purpoze designed. It 1s easy to make t physica! Pill, but not so easy to make the best of all Pills—one which sbould have none of the objections, but all the advantages of every other. This has been attempted here, and with what suc- cess we would respectfully submit to the public dee'sion. It has been unfortunate for the patient aitherto that almost every purgative medicine ir acrimonious and {r itating tothe bowels. ‘Ibis isnot Many of them produce so much griping pain and revulsion in the system as to more than counterbalance the good to be derived fro them. These Pils produce no Irritation or pain, unless it arises from a previously existing obstruction or derangement in the bowels Being purely vi table, no harm can arise from their use in an quantity; but itis better than any medicine shoul. be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their use in the several diseases te which they are ap- plicable are given on the box. Among the com- plaints which have been speedily eured by them we may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice, Indigestion, uor and Loas of Appetite, Listlessness, Irritability, B lious Headache, Hilious Fever, Fever and FR2:, Pain in the Side and Loins, for in truth, all these are but the consequence of diseased action of tue liver. Asana lent, they afford om and sure relief in Costiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrofula and Scurvy, Colds, with sore- ness of the b dy, Ulcers and impurity of the blood ; in short any and every case where a purga tive is required They have also produced some singularly suc- ecssful cures in Rbeumatism, Sed ble ay bred el, Erystpelas, Paipitation of the Heart, Pains tn the Back, Stomach and Side. They sbovld be freely taken in the spring of the yeer, to purify the blood and prepare the system for thee ange of seasons. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach into sage A action, and restores the appe- tite and vigor. They purity the blood, and by their stimulant action on the circulatory syste:a renovate the een of the body, and restore tie wasted or dise: energies of the whole organ- ism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageou: even though no serious derangement exists; but annecessary dosing should never be carried too far, as every purgative medicine reduces the strength, when taken toexcess. The thousand cases in which Pe ‘sic is required cannot be enu- merated here. but they suggest themselves to the reason of every body; and it is contidently be lieved this pill will answer a better purpose than anything which has hitherte been available to manking When their virtues are once known the pabie will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a cathartic medicine Being sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take and belng purely vegetable, no harm can arist from their use in any quantity. 5 For minute directions see the wrapper on the Ox.
