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 Vials of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydock’a 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 remarkable 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. 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 petitioner, although he is lowly and not worthy to be in your high presence prays that you will graciously permit your Life gr { ns (Pills) to come to Aykab. To the mi. learned and wise Physician Haylook (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 bis 8 ’ Tnail Fanaibkrbranciel, Oarmi, 111., April 2, 1884. Db J. Haydock ; Dear Sir —I received your Pills a week ago. 1 have tried them and must say that 1 never had so much good done by anything as they have me. I have suffered for years with biliiousness and have been so sick at times as not to care f o live, but your Pills have cured 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 ate a dinner such as api ughman eats. 1 to check him, but h laughed and said ha was treating his stomaph to p npw - sensation, for it really was hungry. 1 hand you with this four dollars.
