How auo- oeosful we have besn m this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the rales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we have sold 38,089 Vla'a of Dr Haydock's New Liver Pllla. The zeaaon of this de- mand is because we find m Haydook 1 New Llvei Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medioine. The Victories of Science— E.^otplc Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutlonloed the whole system .of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, slthoaph there are countless Pills need for diseases and claiming much sb to their merit, the> remairkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook haa eclipsed them all, and has founded • New Medical Sys- tem. TheDootoiß, whose vast doses of font 01 five pllla enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with on<> 01 two of hla extraordinary Vegetable Filli.
