DiabFbibnds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you In the manner fol- lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at m any invidious light, when we state that lv is only our kegard .for your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long course of this time manufactured oertain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolnte care and precision In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advanoe of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How auo- OBBoful we hare be an m th<o, la only to note the extraordinary amount of the ■ales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we have sold 28,080 Vials of Dv H&ydook's New Liver Pllk The reason vt this de. mand is because we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary oopibluatlon of concentrated mediolne. The Victories of Science— Electrlo Telegraphs, Steam and. Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet* tor. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh | as to their merit, the, remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a, New Medioal Sys- tem. The Dootors, 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 om or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills, One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomach In perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affeoted its func- tions are restored, and If the : Nervous System is enfeebled, it la invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION,, Aykab, Prqvteco of Burmah, 8.1.

During the pait week, suffered great pain and inconvenience tro4»a dislocated knee, which nad been propeTiy **^gattended to shortly after the occurrence, but Which always continued weak and frequently riipped out of joint, notwithstanding the kn&e cap which I wore. During the period I obtained medical advice and tried the ( proscribed remedies, but without any benefit for my knee continued aB weak as ever until I tried the Canadian Cuies. Applying the Canadian remedies according to directions I soon found my knee becoming stranger, and m a short time I was enabled to abandon the knee cap. Three weeks after starting to us a the remedies I discarded them as my knee was as strong as ever before the accident, and continues to remain so through every kind oj taisfc.
