So, although there are eonntless Pills used for disease* and olaiming muoh m to their merit, tha remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. TheDoetota, whose vast doses of four ot five nllls enfeeble the atomaoh and paralyse the bowels, most give way to the man who restore* health and appetite with obd or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Ds Hay- dock's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach In perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant.
