It is easy to make 8 physical B igen not so easy to make the best of all Pilis—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 acrimonious and ir.itating tothe bowels. This isnot Many of them produce so much griping pain and revulsion in the m as to more than counterbalance the ood to be derived from them. These Pills produce no irritation or pain, unless it arises from a previonsly existing obstruction or derangement in thebowels Being purely vege- table, no harm can arise from thelr use in an. quantity; but itis better than any medicine choui be taken Judiciousiy. 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 cured by them ‘we may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languorand Loss of Appetite, Listlessness, Irritability, B lious Headache, Biious Fever, Fever and os Sows Pain inthe Side and Loins, for in truth, all these are but the consequence of diseased action of the liver. As anaperient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Costiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrofula and Scurvy, Colds, with sore- ness of the body, 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- cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Grav el, Erysipelas, Paipitation of the Heart, Pains in the Back, Stomach and Side. They shovld be freely taken in the spring of the to! oy, the blood and prepare the system the of seasons. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach into healthy action, and Aewperycele joe tite and yigor. They purify the blood, an y thefr stimulant action on the cireulatory system, renovate the strength of the pope and restore the waste or diseased energies of the whole organ- ism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageous even though no serious derangement exists; but unnecessary dosing should never be carried too far, as every purgative medicine reduces the riche gy when taken toexcess. The thousand cases In which rt orp bece is required cannot be enu- merated here. but they suggest themselves to the reason of every body; and it is confidently be lieved this pil! will answer a better purpose than anything which hes hitherto been available to mankind When their virtues are once known the eign will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a cathartic medicine eing sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity.
