N E MedieaL W R Dear Friends —We have some hesita tion in addressing yon in the manner fol lowing, bat hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it is 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 Modicicos that being based on acleatiho formula and absolnte care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. ilow suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,039 Vials of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Fills. The reason of this da, maud la beoanse we tind in Hayduck’ g 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 mneb as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctoto, whose vast doses of font 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 arc restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it 1s Invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Bnrmah, 8.1. Honored and Learned Physician—The unworthy one who dares to address you and oemo before yon humbly in the dost, begs for his people (caste) that you would deign to look upon their ignoble miseries and enre them with yonr Life-giving grains (Pills). Illustrious one yonr most potent medicine is life to them and their children, and all the Drag Bazaars are empty and your Soul is not in them.
