GDARDIA Medical. Q N E WORD. Dear Friends —We have some hesita tion in addressing you in the manner fol 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 been 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 absolute 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 Haydock s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Yials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Hay dock’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 <ble 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 I and paralyze the bowels, must give way to j 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. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1. 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 petitionei, although he is gnoble and unworthy to be in your high {presence, prays that you will graciously permit your Life gr ; ns (Pills) to come to Aykab. To the me-t 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 Petitioner places his sign, Tnail Fanaiberekanciel. Carmi, 111., April 2, 1884. Dr J. Haydock : Dear Sir —I received your Pills a week ago. I have tried them and must say that 1 never had so much r ( good done by anything as they have me. I have suffered ror years with billiousness and have been so sick at times as not to 1 care *o live, out your Pills have cured 1 me. One aged man here has taken from me only two of your Pills, and I ] wish you could see him. He has had no ( appetite for five months, and to-day he j ate a dinner such as api ughman eats. I had to check him, but he laughed and said he was treating his stomach to a new c sensation, for it really was hungry, 1 hand you with this four dollars. Please t send at once, a below, your Pills 1 Mbs Sabah Manners, Carmi, Illinois, U.S.



We would gue you if we were to go on with them as we very well could do, but the above must suffice. Haydook’s New Liver Pills are the true grains and essence of health, and the gi eateat bless ing that Science has given to the world. For Nervous Prostration, Weakness, General Lassitude, Want of Appetite and Sick Headache, Dr Haddock’s New Liver Pills will be found an Effectual Remedy. Each vial contains Twenty Pills. 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.

In one case rhen every remedy tried was powerless to ■ ;ive relief (the cough was so distressing) { he first dose of your Elixir proved most iffective. In another case (sore throat) a sure was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to .take no* ihing else. Other oases could be cited, but these twill be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean aider. From C. F.

I shall on all occasions have great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as I con sider it a boon to mankind. From Isaao Allen Esq., Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, 1 December 5, 1883. After seven years’ experience 1 have great pleasure in testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lung Preserver,” having proved it in my family to be a specific for coughs, colds, eta, a few doses invariably subdu ing the nasty harassing cough, while re lieving the throat and chest, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organs by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, eta I can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and most palatable mixture known lor coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. From W. B, Scott, Esq. , Builder, etc., Peterborough street, Christchurch, December 4, 1883. Some years ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Pulmonic Elixir and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest. I did so, and from that time I have never been without it in the house. 1 have found it to answer in every respect for coughs, colds, and sore throat, and would strongly advise those that are suf fering from such complaints to try it.

As soon as it has been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which, the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B Many others started nostrums put up. in simi lar style to H. 8., with variously devise names in which the word “ Hop ’ or ‘‘Heps ” were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word “ Hop ” or ’‘Hops” in their name or in any way connected .with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Be ware of them. Touch none of them. Use lothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch, or cluster of green Hops on the vi 'te label, and Dr Soule’s name blown in h glass.
