Medical. ON B WORD. Dear Fmbwds— W^ have some hesita- tion in addressing you in the manner fol- lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that Iv is only our kogard for your health that causes us to do It. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for laaany, many years and have In the ioag course of this time manufactured certain Medlolnes that being baaed on scientific formula and absolute oare and pre?ta!on in manufacture, h&vo enjoyed a popularity isx in advance of any other PhnrmaoauU> cs.l Preparations of tho daf. How suc- oeent'ul we hftve been In thies, is only to note the extraordinary amonnf, of the calea of oar Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to atrte that we h*ve sold 28,039 Vials of Dr Haydock's New Liver Pilla. The reason of thla de- mand is because we find In Haydook' New Livei Pilla a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Yiatoriea of Science— Eleotrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole nyetem of the globe, and made manklcd wfeer and bet- ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming mnoh as to their mosit, thfc remarkable dis- covery of Dr Hnydook has eclipsed them all, &nd hay founded a New Sledloal Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vent doses of four oi five pills enfeeble the vtomaoh and paralyze the bowels, must give way to tho man who restorer health and appetlto with oftd ot two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dock's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the atomach in pesfeot order creates an appetite, end renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func- tions are restored, and If tho Nervous System ia enfeebled, It fa i&rigorated and sustained, TRANSLATION. Aykftb, Provfoce of Burmah, 8.1.
