FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A y FAMILY PHYSIC, HERE HAS LONG EXISTED A PUBLIC demand for an effective Purgative Pill which could be relied on as sure and perfectly safe In its operction. This has been prepared to meet that demand, and an extensive trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with what success it accom plishes the wed joes designed. It is easy to make @ physical Pit , but not so easy to make the test of ail Pills—one which should 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 decision. It has been unfortunate for the patient hitherto that almost every purgative medicine is acrimonious and ir.itating tothe bowels. This isnot. Many of them produce so much griping pain and revulsion in the system as to more than counterbalance the good to be derived from them. These Pails produce no irritation or pain, unless it arises from a previously existing obstruction or derangement in the bowel! Being purely vege- 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 siven on the box. Among fhe com- plaints which have been speedily cured by them ‘we may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languoz and Loss of Appetite, Listlessness, Irritability, B lious Headache, Bilious Fever, Fever and A , Pain inthe Side and Loins, for in truth, all these are but the consequence of diseased action of the liver. Asana ent, they afford prompt and sure relief in Costiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrofula and Scurvy, Colds, with sore- ness of the bedy, Ulcers and impurity of the blood ; ‘In short any and every case where a purga tive Is required They have also produced some singularly sne cessful cures In Rheumatism, prosper pee ge 8 Grav el, Erysicelas, Paipitation of the Heart, Pains ta the Back, Stomach and Bide. They sho: ld be freely taken in the spring of the — to purify the blood and prepare the system for the change of seasons. An ocossional dose stimulates the stomath {nto healthy action, and restores the appe- tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and by thefr stimulant aetion on the circulatory system renovate the strength of the body, and restore the wasted or di: energies of the whole organ- ism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageous even though no serious der it exists; but unn: dosing should never be carried too far, as ev purgative medicine reduces the strength, when taken toexcess. The thousand cases in which a = beg is required cannot be enu merated here. but they suggest themselves to the reason of every body; and it is confidently be lieved this pill will answer a better purpose than anything which has hitherto been available to mankind When their virtues are once known the public will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a cathartic medicine Being sugar wrapped they are pieasant to take, and purely vegetable, no harm can aris: from their use in any quantity. .
