We have boon a Firm of Analytical Ohomista for many, many yoj.r3 and have m the long couree of thia time manufactured certain MedioSaeß that being based on scioatliio formula ftnd abaolnte oaro and precision ln manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity fsr m advance of any otnor Pharmaceuti- cs*). Preparations of the day. Ho^r suo- oessful we have bsan In this, Is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of onr Haydook o New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strto that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pllk The reason of this de. mand is beoause we find ln Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of oonoentrated medioine. The Victories of Solenoe — Eleotrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutlonioed the whole system of the globe, an£ made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there aro oountlesß Pills used for disease!, and claiming muoh as to their merit, tht. remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed them all, and has founded a New Modioli 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 ond or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Di Hay- dook's New Liver PUla sufficea to plaoe the stomach m perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver Is affected its func- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, It Is invigorated and sustained, TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.
