The season of this de- mand is beoftuop wo find In Baydock' New Liver Pills a wonderful aud extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Soienoe— \ Electrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of fche globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are oountieaa Pills used for diseasou and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has pollpeed them all, and haa founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doototn, whose vast doses of four or five piJia enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with ono or two of hia extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hsy. dock's New Liver Pills auffioaa to place the Btomach m perfect order oreates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affeoted its func- tions are restored, and If the Nervous System ia enfeebled, it la invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykao, Prov *.cc of Bnrmah, 8.1.
