The reason of this de i mand Is beoause we find In Haydook' d New Live 1 Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of oonoentrate< medicine. The victories of Science— Etaotrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printlnj — revolutionised the whole system of thi :1 globe, and made mankind wiser and bet' ter. Ho, although there are oountlesi ' Pills used for dleeaaea and olalming mnob j as to their morlt, th_ remarkable dis- covery of Di Haydook has eclipsed them all, and haß founded a New Medloal Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of ' four or five pills enfeeble the atomaoh and paralyse the bowels, mast give way to the man who restores hoalth and appetite with ono or two of hit extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay. dock's New Liver Pills auifioes to plaoe the stomaoh m perfeot order creates .an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver Is affected its func- tions are restored, and If the Nervous System Is enfeebled, it Is l& rlgorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Barmoh, 8.1.

Flames cannot spread 1 over surfaces covered with this paint. We manufacture the Vulcan Paint m all colors, and will furnish any tint desired. Soteria will give perfect security to all rough - interior surfaces, such as floor beams, joists, lathing, etc., and while Soteria is furnished at t less than cne-half the cost of our Vulcan 1 Paint, its fire proof qualities arc equal t cthe C Vulcan Paint. We furnish it m all colors, and a very valuable property of Soteria is, that, I like our Vulcan Paint, it preserves the secrion covered from decay. 1 NEW YORK"~FIRE PROOF l PAINT CO., j OFFICE AND W'ABEHOUSB « ( j 65 Maiden Lane, 85 William Street, T I New Ycrk, U.S.JL I Manufactory, Elizabeth, N.J, ( Goods, shipped direct' from our own ) j
