Medical. Q N E WORD. Dear Friends —We have some hesita tion in addressing yon in the manner fol lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at in any insidious 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 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 Vlala of Dr fiaydock’s Now Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand la because wo find in Haydock’ New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science — Electric T. iegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolnt.'juiscd the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. 80, although there are countless Pills need for diseases and doming much as to their merit, the remane-oie dis covery of Dr Haynock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a Now Medical Sys tem. The Doctoi-b, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, most 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 is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, ProvSace of Burmah, 8.1.
