Dbab Fbuhds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you m the manner fol- lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at In any invidious light, when we state that it Is only our regard for your health that oausea us to do It. We nave been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long oourso of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being baaed on scientific formula and absolnte oare and preoialon In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advanoo of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How sue- oeesful we have been m this, is only to cote 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 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pills. Tho reason of this de. mand Is beoause we find m Haydook' 'New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of oonoentrated mediolne. The Vlotorlea of Solenco — Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are oountleas Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed them all, and haa founded a New Medical Sys- j tern. TheDootors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble tho atomaoh and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with obd or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook'a New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomach In porfeot 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, Provi«ce of Burmah, 8.1.
