Friedlander Brothers. Ashburton has always been to the fore, and it would belie its well earned reputation were some of its enterprising inhabitants to rest dor mant in these dull and depressed times without giving the public some thing to talk about. We require something start ling, and what is more, we must have something which will do our eyes, our hearts, our pockets good. Who then can deny that the present ruinous straggle for busi ness which is being car ried on by a few of *hese enterprising business .people, does not tend in that direction. If there is any doubt, pome and let your pockets be light ened, a’low your hearts to delight, and your eyes become bright at the low prices our goods are being sold at our busi ness premises.

Medical. 0 N E WORD. Dear Friends— We have ao.ne hesita tion in .addressing you in the manner fal lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it is only our regard for your health that causes us to do it. We have bean a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years, and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and abaolnte care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Uaydock s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure- to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydock’s New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science — Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remark'bio dis covery of Dr Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is .invigorated and sustained. TRANSL \TION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, B. I. Honored and Learned Physician—The unworthy one who dares to address you and come before you humbly in the dust, begs for his people (caste) that you would deign to look upon their ignoble miseries and cure them with your Life-giving grains (Pills). Illustrious one your most potent medicine is life to them and their children, and all the Drug Bazaars are empty and your Soul is not in them. This, humble petitioner, although he is gnoble and unworthy to be in your high ipresence, prays that you will graciously permit your Life gr -ns (Pills) to come to Aykab. To the mu-i learned and wise Physician Haylock (Haydock) of high name. Native to the States of America, united in North America Country. .



Serviely signing for himself and twenty three others, the Petititioner places his sign, Tnaiu Fanaibebebancikl. Carmi, 111., April 2, 1884. Db J. Haydock : Dear Sir —I received your Pills a week ago. I have tried them and must say that 1 never had so much good done by anything as they have me. 1 have suffered for years with billiousness and have been so sick at times as not to care to live, but your Pills have cured me. One aged man here has taken from ms only two of your Pills, and I wish you could see him. He has had no appetite for five months, and to-day he ate a dinner such as api ugbman eats. I ' had to check him, but he laughed and said he was treating his stomach to a new sensation, for it really was hungry. I hand you with this four dollars. Please send at once, a below, your Pills. Mbs Sabah Manners, Garmi, 1 llinois, U. S. We would gue you if we wore to go on with them as we very well could do, but the above must suffice. Haydock’s New Liver Pills are the true grains and essence of health, and the greatest bless ing that Science has given to the world. For Nervous Prostration, Weakness, General Lassitude, Want of Appetite and Sick Headaohp, Dr Haddock’s New Liver Pills will be found an Effectual Remedy. Each vial contains Twenty Pil}s. Price Twenty-five Cents. For sale by all Drug gists. Any sceptic can have a vial of Pills Sent him Free .on receipt of his name and address, for a trial. Send a postal card for ropy of .pamphlet—“ The Liver and its. Mystery.” It furnishes valuable information to all. HAYDOCK & 00 New York, D.S.
