We have ->een a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long oourse of this time manufactured certain Mediolnes that being based on scientific formula and absolnte ease and precision m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How sue* oeaaful iro have be %n m this, Is only to mote the extraordinary amonnt of the rales of onr Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we havo sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Baydook'a New Liver PUl*. The reason of this dc mand is beoanne we find m BaydooJr' Dew Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medlolne. The Viotorles of Science — Bleotrlo 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 disease* and olalming muoh m to their merit, tat remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and hat founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of foot or five pill* enfeeble the itomaob and paralyse the bowols, must give way to the man who restorer health and appetite with ond or two of hit extraordinary Vegetable Pilli. One or two of Dr Hay- dook'R New liver Pills suffices to piaoe the stomach In perfeat order oreates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver 1b affected its f nno tion> are restored, and if the Nervuu- System is enfeebled, it is Invigorated ami sustained.

SEIGEL. AN EXPERIENCE OF FORTY YEARS. " Cosham, Hantß, Jan. 2, 1885, "My custom* rs, over a wide country dis- trict, tre not very demonstrative, and I have no written testimonials to send ; but verbal admiration of your medicine is in.the asce< d- ant. and my experience of forty years as-ures me that no other preparation has so rapidly »co,uired a popularity, and so firmly main- tains its reputation as Mother Sen-el's Syrup. (Signed) "Thomas H. Bakir.*



SURGICAL OFKRATI »* AVERTED, '•Ticchurst, • cc. 184. Mr E Ward Cof kx hemi"-?, wrtcs:— * 4 Your roe icine m>in'ains a vte*dy sale m this district, and is well cs ablished m general favor. I know a-i od m>n, ov r seventy, wh-> some thre«» or fom years ago as advised to submit to the operation tor stor>e. H^ certain y was sufferin fiom some d stressing B>tnj.>toms and <ould scarcely walk. In-t ad of talcing ! hat advice he tried eigel's Svru , wi-h the result tha*, aff«r one bottlr, he could walk about faiily well, and, h avn/ taken three or four 2s 61 bott es, h* was c impletely cured. He is sti 1 about, hale and hearty for hi* years. If any of 'he syrcptoms of the old trouble come on, he takes a few doses of the . Syrup, and all is well again."



A CASE OP GRAVEL CURZD, "Feltham, Jan. 6. 1885. "It has always given me pleasure t> re- commend your medicines to my customers, and the results of their use have invariably been most satisfactory. I rould furnish you many testimonials. ( ne case just now occurs to my n.ind. A c rastable of the volice force of "ooting, **.'., where * for many years had a shop, was a patient of mine, suffering from a bad attack of ravel. He was p -r- suaded to try ' Mother Seigel's yrup. He purer used a boHle v my nho.*, an by t 1 c time he had taken half of i> he reported him- sef to me as quite cured. The effect was simply miraculous. (signtd) '*J. D. Floranci." IS MOTHBR SEIGIi!- RELIABLE?



FOR? 00*3 NOT RESTORE THE DEAD, BUT SAVES THE LIVING, Mr J. W. Savill. "f Dunmow, Essex, writes, — September, 1884: — "I introduced your medicines into Dunmow almost as soon as they were brought out m London. T sold m a short time eighteen pounds' worth. I have known many grand cases of permanent cures ; and, as yet, no case of fa- lure. ot- witr-standing many competitors, Mother Seigel's Syrup holas it- 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.



" I find the sale of your medicines increases J every year, and everyone speaks well of them'l that tries them. I know a lady that attended the Female Hospital m Soho-Bquare for some j tn+nths, with pains m back and side, and j biiious, and could tike no food, but got no benefit from any of the medicines they g va her. Before she had taken all the contents of one bottle of your syrup she fet relief, and is row quite well. (Signed) "W. K. Baker." THE EFFECT WAS MARVELLOUS "Mvdical'Hall, Bangor, Jan $, 1885. "I hear people constantly speaking very highly of Seigel s Syrup. There {3 a case of a young married lady it Anglesey who had been suffering from stomach asthma for a lw>g period, who had consulted some of the best physicians of the day, but without deriving any benefit. She was daily getting wor-e, but at last a friend persuaded her to try Seigel's syrup. She procured a bottle, and the effect was marvellous ; sh* rap d!y improved, and now she Uas stiong and heahny as e v er she has been.



WHO: ?S MOTHER SEIGEL. , She is a lady, who by the merest accdent oasmadea most viluablc discovery, and she is creating the wildest enthusiasm all over the eonn*ry, and «verybody is talking about her and asking WHAT IS MOTHER SEIGEL'S REPUTATION? And she tells them to r-ad the thousands ot letter*, something Ike the following from Mr Perkins : — A WONDKRFI'L TESTIMONIAL, "Grove Pharmacy, Kaling, W., Jan 2, 88 . " Your medicine must be the most wond. r- fut discover , for during), my expetiefl^e^of more than twenty years. 1 nt ver knew 'any proprietary or patent medicine m such universal favour and demand. IHijsJro'plv- 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, Bloomfield road, Plumstead, "Jan. 7, 1885.
