Medical. N E WORD. Dear Fribndh —We have some hesita tion In addressing you la the manner fol lowing, bnt 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 baaed 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 Heydook a New Diver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find In Haydook’ New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicb.o. The Victories of Science— Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made manitlnd wiser and bet tor. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis co very of Dr Hayuock has eclipsed them al), 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 ono or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s IN ew Liver bills 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.
