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 absolnte care and precision m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaoeutf- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have been In this, Is only to tiote 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 Viala of Dr Haydook'B New Liver Pills. The reason of this de- mand is beoause we find In Haydook' New Llvor Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medioine. The Viotorles of Soienoe— Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system [of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet" ter. So, although there are oountless Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydock has eolipsed them bll, end has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctor*, whoee vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomaoh and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with or»> or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stom&ch m perfect order oreateß 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 la invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Prov.sce of Burmah, 8.1.
