In one caae when every remedy tried was powerleßs to j give relief (the cough was bo distressing) the first doae of your Elixir proved moßt effective. In another case (sore throat) a oure was soon brought about that the patient resolved n the future to u taka no- thingelse.

Dbab Frmekds— We have some hesita- tion In 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 causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years »nd have m the 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 sue- cesaful we have been m this, m only to note the extraordinary amount, of the sales of onr Haydook s New Liver Pili. We have the ploasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Yialo of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pills. The reason of thin de- mand Is because we find m Bay dock' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medioine. The Victories of Soienoe— Eleotrio 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 dieoasoa 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. TheDootoM, whose vast doses of four or five pilis enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with ond or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills Bufficea to place the stomach m perfect order oreatoa an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected ita func- tions are restored, and If the Nervouß System is enfeebled, it jta invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provisce of Burmah, 8.1.
