How sue oessful we have bevn In this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of out Haydook a New Liver Pill. We have the pleasurr t to strte that we have sold 28,088 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pill* The reason <of this de. mand is because we find m Haydook 1 New Live* Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated mediolne. The Victories of Science— Eleotrlo Telogiaphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. Ho, although there are oountlew Pills used fox diseases and claiming muoh as to. their merit, the remarkable dis- oovery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed thorn all, and haa founded a New Medical Sys- tem. TheDootois, whose vast doses of font ov five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowals, most give way to the man who restores health and appetite with on«s or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay. dook'fl New Lire* Pills •nffioos to plaoe the stomach m perfeot order eieates 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 m rigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Pro via oe of Burmah, 8.1.
