f\ N E WORD. Dbab Fbmwtds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you ln the manner fol- lowing, but hope that lt will not be looked ivt In any Invidious light, when we state that Ii la only our .regard for your health that causer, us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Ohemisfa for many, many years and have ln the long oourse of this time manufactured oertaln Medioineß that being baaed on solontllio formula and absolnte oare and preoiaion In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advanoe of any othor Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have bean ln this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure ( to strto that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pills. The reason z>f this de. mand la beoause we find In Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of oonoentrated medicine. The Viotories of Solenoe— Eleotrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are oountless PUIs used for diseases and olalming muoh as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed thorn all, and has founded a New Medioal Sys- tem. The Dootors, whoae vast doses of four or fivo pills enfeeble tho stomaoh and paralyse the bowclti, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with on«» or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills, One or two of Dr Hay. dook's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomaoh m perfect ordor oreates an appetite, and venders the spirit light and buoyant. If tho Liver is affected ita func- tions aro restored, and lf the Nervous System Is enfeebled, it Ii !u yigoratod and sustained.

FOR hundreds of yoara, all Enropo, Asi: and Araonoa havj known whit popu- larity nnd repute tho "Two Groat Oanalian Remedies " havb ja. tly acquired from the euo- coisful results which havo boen o-.taintid daily ! m curing Pains, Rheumatism, Sciatica, Arth- ritis, Paralysis, and m tho prompt and radical ourea of Sorea, Wonnda, Onta, Burns, etc. A fow frictions, drcßsings or doseß aro generally Buffioient to mi»ke a oomplete Curo, and thu enable tho Bufferew to resume th-.ir usual occupations. DUFLOT'B " Two Groat Canadian Ourea " are compounded exclusively of expens-ve aromatic and balaamio plants, herbs, roots, barks and flawere. They aro unequalled for restoring B^rength to persons suffering from debility, youth and virility to the old, and for strength- ening childron, whom thoi help to develope m a moat extraordinary manner during tluir growth and when teething. It is certain that our forefathers! were stronger, moro robust, and lobb Bubject to ailments than we ar&. Thoy owed thoir ad. vantage, no donbt, to the hygionio rules they had tho habit of observing. Thoy were ac- customed to the daily uto of oils, pomatum, perfume, eto., whi*.b hmve tho property of establishing and accelerating the circulation of the blood. ,_.■, On good circulation of tho blood depend health, Btrengtb, life ; the diverse fuuetions of our body have to follow their course, and by protecting ourselves from transient indisposi- tions we avoid serious illness. Even science, by ita moat illustrious reproientativa persons, is ignorant yet of these oils, pomatum, per- fume, etc, tbat wero uaed by our anoastora, and ruDbed aU over, wh'ch kept them m the beat of health. Dtjflot's " Two Great Canadian Curo3 " are theso ointments and perfumed remedies. They were imported to Europe by our family, who discovered the secret of their ingredienta, and of their manufacture, nnd have benevolently distributed them to friends and acqaaintanoes, and to anoh aB have been licky enough to obtain them, and many times has the diECOverer and importer boen entreated to do an act of humanity m Bupplying the needy public with them. Our duty to day ie to make a great circulation of them, and to make tham known all over tho world. TESTIMONIALS.
