Diab Fbukds— We have some heslta- 1 fcion m addressing you m the manner fol- lowing, bnt hope that it will not be looked at m any invidious light, when we state that Iv is only our kegard Jor your healfrh that causeß us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for 'many, many years and have m the long c course of this time manufactured oertaln l Medicines that being based on scientific ? formula and absolnte oare and precision ' In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity 1 far m advance of any other Pharmaoeuti- oal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have bean In this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of out Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strto that we nave sold 28,U»M Ylals of J>s ££»ydook'a S 1 New Liver PUU, The reason of this de. > mand Is because we find In Haydpck' ) New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The 'Tlctorles 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 countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much I v to their merit, the remarkable : dis- covery of DrHaydookhas eollpsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Dootorn, whose vast doses of ' four or five pills enfeeble the stomaoh and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restoffes health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Fills. One or two of Dr Hay- dock's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomaoh In perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its funb- tlons are restored, and if the Ndrvbus System is enfeebled, it is Invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provlsce of Burmah, 8.1. Honored and Learned Physlolan— The unworthy one who dares to address you and come before ydnhumoly m the dust, begs for his people (caste) that you would deign to look upon their ignoble miseries and cure them with your Life-giving grains (Pills).

During the potiod I obtained medical advice acd tri.d the proscribed remedies, but without any benefit for my knee continued as weak as ever until I tried the Canadian Cures Applying the Canadian remedies according to directions I soon found my knee becoming stronger, and m n ehort time £ was enabled to abandon the knee cap. Three weeks after starting to us? the remedies I discarded them as my knee wnu as strong as over before the accident, end continues to remain so through every kind of trial Again heartily recommending the Canadian Coree, I run, etc., Geo.
