In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (the congh was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved n the future to .take no thing else. Other oases could be died, bat these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Sbxlr Is a remedy of no mean order. From O. F.

Medical. Q N B WORD. Dxab Feixkdb—We have so me hesita tion in addreasin % 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 oar 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, la 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 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook'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 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 Haydook 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, 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 in enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykao, Prov :<ce of Burmah, 8.1.
