Diab Fbibnds— We have some hesita- tion ln addressing you m the manner fol- lowing, but hope that lt will not be looked at m any invidious light, when we state that iv is only our kegard Jor your health that oauses us to do lt. We have been a Firm of Analytical Ohemlsts for many, many years and have In the long course of this time manufactured oertaln Medioineß that being baaed on scientific formula and absolnte oare and precision ln manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advanoe of any other Pharmaoeutl- oal Preparations of the Bay. How suc- cessful we have bean m this, is only to noto the extraordinary amount of the rales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pllk The .reason of this de- mand is because we find ln Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medioine. The Viotories of Science— 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, tha remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook haa eollpsed 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 ond or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Lives Pilla suffice^ to plaoe the stomach In perfeot order oreates 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, lt Is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.
