Dzab Fbibhds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you In the manner fol- lowing, bat hope that it will not be looked at In any invidious light, when we state that iv is only our kegard for your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Ohemiats for many, many years and have In the long course of this time manufactured certain Medlolnes that being based on solentllio formula and absolnte care and precision m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaoeuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have been m this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of onr Haydook d New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we have sold 28,08 ft Vials of Dr Haydook'a New Liver Plila. The reason of this de. mand is because we find m Haydook' New Lives Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Slootrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet* tor. So, although there are oountless Pills used for diseases and claiming much 1 as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medioal Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four ov five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, mast give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one off two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Di Hay. dock's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func- tions are reatored, and if the Nervous System m enfeebled, It Is invigorated and sustained.

Our duty to rlay i» to make a great circulation of them, and to make them known all over the world.
