DxabFbxkidb— We have hoi ne hesita- tion m addressing you In the manner fol- lowing, but hope that It will not be looked at In any invidious light, when we state that k Is only our kegard Jor your, health that causes us to do It, We have, been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have In the long oourae of this time manufactured oertain Medicines that being bated on soientifio formula and absolute oare and precision In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaoeutl. , oal Preparations of the day. How suo- oessful we have bean In this, la only to note the. extraordinary amount of the tales of our Haydock a New Liver Pill. We have the pletinrc to atria that we have sold 28,089 T lib of D* Haydook's New Liver PUU, luo reason nf this de- mand is because we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated mediolne. The Yiotories of Solenee— Eleotrlo Telegiapbf, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet* ter. So, although there are countless PUli nned for diseases and claiming much m to theit merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpaed them all, and has founded ■ New Medioal Sys- tem. The Dootori, whose vast doses of four o« five pill* enfeeble the itomaoh and paralyse the bowel*, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with on<* or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Di Hay- dook'sNew Liver Pills sufGaes to plaoe the stomach In perfebt order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is afleoted its funo- tlons are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, It la iivrigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Proyj&ee of Burmah, 8.1.
