We have »een a Firm of Analytical Ohemlsts for many, many years and have m the long course of this time manufactured certait. Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolnte oare and precision to. manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advanoe of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have be to In this, is only to > note tbe extraordinary amount of the rales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we ( have sold 28,080 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver Pills. 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 Viotories of Science— Electrio Telegraphs, Steam and Printing 1 —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, an., made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and olalming muoh as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook haa eollpsed them all, and haa founded a New Medical Sys- : tern. The Dootors, whose vast doses of four or five nllla enfeeble the stomaoh and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with on. or two of hla extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Di Hay. dock's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomach In perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the •pirlt light and buoyant. If the liver ia affected ita func- tions are restored, and if the Nervoni System ia enfeebled, it is m rlgorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Prov cc of Burmah, BJ.

" I find t_e sale of your medicines increases every year, and everyone speaks well of them that tries them. I know a lady thit aten' ed the Female Hospital m Soha-square for some manths, with pains ia back and side, and biiou?, and could tike.no food, but got no benefit from any of the medicines they give her. Before she bad-taken all the contents of o c bottle of your syrup she felt relief, and is now quite well. (Signed) "W. K. BAKE*," THE EFFECT WAS MARVELLOUS " M-dical Hall, Bangor, Jan. 5, 1885.
