Hew suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of onr Haydock s New Liver Pill. Wo have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr tiaydock'a New Liver Fills. The reason of this de mand 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, although there are countless Pills need for diseases and claiming mnoh 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 fear or five piles enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, moat 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 dook’s New Liver Pills suffices tc place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver Is affected its funo- I tlons are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, It is invigorated and sustained. translation. Aykao, Prov »ce of JUnrmah, 8.1.
