We have tho pleasure to atate that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pllla, The reason of this do- mand is because we find In Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine.

So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh as to their merit, the .remarkable dis- oovezy of Dr Haydook has eolipaed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem.
