Dsab Fbibicds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing yon ln the manner fol- lowing, bat hope that it will not be looked at m any Invidious light, when we state that lv ls only onr kegard .for your ; health that oauses us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and haye m the long course of this time manufactured oertain i Medicines that being based on soientlfio formula and absolnte oare and precision m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advanoe of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have be .n ln this, Is only to \u25a0 note the extraordinary amount of the rales of onr Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleaaurr to strte that we 1 have sold 28,08° Vials of Ds Haydook'a New Liver Pills. The reason of this de- mand is because we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medioine. The Victories of Solence— Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the wholo system of the globe, and! made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are countless Fills used for diseases and claiming muoh as to their merit, tha remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of fonr or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, mnst 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- dock's New Liver Pills suffioes to place the stomaoh In perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver la affected its func- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is m rlgorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Bnrmab, 8.1.

WHO IS MOTHER SEIGEL. She is a lady, who by the merest accident has made a most valuable discovery, and she is creating the wildest enthusiasm ail over the country, and everybody is talking about her and asking WHAT IS MOTHER SEIGEL'S REPUTATION? And she tells them to read the thousands ot tter_, something Uke the following from Mr Perkins : — . A WONDERFUL TESTIMONIAL. "Grove Pharmacy, Ealing, W., Jan. 2, 1885. " Your medicine must be the most wonder- ful discovery, for during my experience of more than twenty years. I nev«:r knew any proprietary or patent medicino m _ such universal favour and demand. It is simply extraordinary, and if I were to send you an account of every statement made to me m its favour, you would have to publish a separate book to contain my testimonials alone. (Signed) "Thomas J. Perkins." And then people ask — WHAT DOES MOTHER SEIGEL DO " GIVES RELIEF AT ONCE. " 59, Bloomfteld road, Piwastead, "Jan. 7, 1885. " I find the sale of your medicines increases every year, and everyone speaks well of them that tries them. I know a lady that attended the Female Hospital m Soho-square for some m.nths, with pains m back and side, and bilious, and could take no food, but got no benefit from any of the medicines they gave her. Before she had taken all the contents of one bottle of your syrup she felt relief, and is now quite well. (Signed) "W. K. Baker." THE EFFECT WAS MARVELLOUS. "M-dical Hall, Bangor, Jan. 5, 1885. "I hear people constantly speaking very highly of Seigel's Syrup. There is a case of a young married lady m Anglesey who had been suffering from stomach asthma for a long 'period, who had consulted some of the best physicians of the day, but without deriving any benefit. She was daily getting worse, but at last a friend persuaded her to try Seigel's syrup. She procured a bottle, and the effect was marvellous j she rap dly improved, and now she is as strong and healthy as ever she has been. (Signed) "H. Lloyd-Jones." WHAT IS MOTHER SEIGEL GOOD FOR? DOES NOT RESTORE THE DEAD, BUT SAVES THE LIVING. Mr J. W. Savill. of Dunmow, Essex, xrrites,— September, 1884:— *• I introduced your medicines into Dunmow almost as soon as they were brought out m London. I sold m a short time eighteen pounds' worth. I have known many graad cases of permanent cures ; and, as yet, no case of failure. Not- withstanding many competitors, Mother Seigel's Syrup holas its own ground. I be- lieve it a good medicine — it will not restore the dead to life, but it appears to save the living from dying, A CASE OF GRAVEL CURID.f '•Feltham, Jan. 6. 1885. "It has always given me pleasure to re- commend your medicines io my customers, and the results of their use have invariably been most satisfactory. I could furnish you many testimonials. One case just now occurs to my mind. A c jnstable of the police force of Tooting, S.W., where I for many years had a shop, was a patient of mine, suffering from a bad attack of gravel. He was per- suaded to try ' Mother Seigel's Syrup.' He purchased a bottle at my shop, and by the time he had taken half of it he reported him- self to me as quite cured. The effect was simply miraculous. "J. L>. FLORANCR," IS MOTHER SEIGEL RELIABLE? Would respectable chemists like.the ollowingifnot? SURGICAL OPERATION AVERTED. "Ticehurst, Dec., 1884. Mr Edward Corkk. Chemist, writes *.— "Your medicine maintains a steady sale m this district, and is well established m general favor. I know an o!d man, over seventy, who some three or four years ago was advised to submit to the operatic n for stone. He certainly was suffering from some distressing symptoms, and could scarcely walk. Instead of taking that advice he tried Seigel's Syrup, with the result that, after one bottle, he could walk about fairly well, and, having taken three or four 2s 6i bott es, he wa. completely cured. He is still about, hale and hearty for his years. If any of the symptoms of the old trouble come on, he takes a few doses of the Syrup, and all is well again." WHAT PEOFLE SAY ABOUT MOTHER SEIGEL. AN EXPERIENCE O? FORTY YEARS, " Cosham, Hants, Jan. 2, 1885. *' My customers, over a wide country dis- trict, are not very demonstrative, and I have no \u25a0 written testimonials to send ; but verbal admiration of your medicine is m the ascend- ant, and my experience of forty years assures me that no oth_r preparation' has so rapidly acquired a popularity, and so firmly main- tains its reputation as Mother Seigel's Syrup.
