Dxab Fbiihds— 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 ntate that X la only our tegard for your health that oauaes ua to do it. We h»ve been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long course of this time manufactured oertaln Medicines that being baaed on Boltmtlfio formula and abaolnto care and precision m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far In advance of any other Pharmaoontl. oal Preparations of the day. How auo- oessful we have bean In tbjs, is only to nntfi the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydock'B New Liver Pllla, The reason of thla de- mand 1b because we find In Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medioine. The Vlotorlea of Soienoe — Eteotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- j tier. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, tht remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse 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 auffioea to plaoe the stomach m perfect ordor oreates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected ito f uno- tlons are restored, and if the Nervous System la enfeebled, It is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provlsoe of Burmah, £.1.
