We have the pleasure to state that we have Bold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pills. The reason of this de- mand is because we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful ani extr» ordinary combination of concentrated medioine.

TheDootora, whdae vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the atomach .and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with o&4 or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver 1b anebted itsfuno- tlona are restored, and if the Nervous Syitem la enfeebled, it is invigorated and Buatalned. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.
