Medical. 0 N E WORD. Dbab Fbibhdb— We have some hesita tion In addressing yon In the manner fol lowing, but hope that It will not be looked at In any Invidious light, when we state that it la only onr 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 a 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 maud Is because we find In Haydock' 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, althongh there are countless Pills need 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 paralyse the bowels, mast 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 1s affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, It la invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Bnrmah, 8.1. Honored and Learned Physician—The unworthy one who dares to address yon and ocme 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 la not In them.

I have tried them and most say that I never had so much good done by anything as they have me.
