Dear Friends — We have some heaita- tlon m addressing yon m the manner fol- lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at m any invidious light, vhen we state that it Is only our kegard for your health that causes us to do it. We nave been a Firm of Analytical Chemisto for many, many ycara and have m tho long oourse of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on Bcientino formula and absolute care and precision In manufacture, have en joy on a popularity far m tivanoo of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful ire have been m this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the Ralos of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Eaydook's New Llvor Pills. The reason of this do- mand la because -wo find In Baydook 1 New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The ViotorieH of Solence — Electrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- tor. So, although there are countless Pills ucod for discaaoa and claiming muoh as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. Tho Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeblo the stomaoh and paralyse the bowels, mast give way to the man who restores health and appetite with or»o or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dock's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m porfeot order oreates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its f uno- tlona are restored, and if the Nervous System is *enf eel 1 ad, it is invigorated and sustained. TKANfILATION. Aykab, Prov see of Burmah, 8.1.
