Dkar Fbibnds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you m the manner fol- lowing, but hone that it will not be looked at In any invidious light, when we state that it ia only onr kegard .for your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m ihe long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolnte care and precision In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m 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 onr Haydook b New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pills.

The Victories of Solenoe — EUiotrlo Telografta, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, pnd m«de mankind wiser and bet- ter. 30, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and olaiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medloal Sys- tem. TheDootoro, whose vast doses of four or five pllli enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to tho 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 auffioes to place the stomach In perfeot ordor creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver ia affeoted its func- tions pre restored, and If the Nervous System ia enfeebled, It is invigorated and sustained, TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.
