The 1 71otorieB of Solence— Bleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. 80, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh as to their merit, the. remarkable dls- oovery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomaoh and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant.
