Deab FBiKfDB—We have hoi ne hesita- tion In addressing you In the manner f ol> lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at In any Invidious light, when we state that iv Is only our kegard for your health that causes us to do it, We have been a Mrm of Analytical Ohemista for many, many years and hnvo In the long course of this time manufactured oortaln Medicines that being based on solentifio formulu and absolnte oare and precision In manufacture, have enjoyerl a popularity far m advance of any otho? Pharmaoenti* oal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have bean m this, Is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydock'o New Liver Pilk. The ie*son of this de. mand Is beoause we find m Haydook 1 New Llvei Pills a wonderful and extra ordln&ry combination of oonoentrated medicine. The Viotozies of Soience-r~ Bleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of tho globe, ans made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are countlesc Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh as to their merit, the> remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eolipsed them all, and has founded % New Medical Sys- tem. The Dooto»/», whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of hia * extraordinary Vegetable Pilli. One or two of Dt Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m perfeot order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System la enfeebled, it it i&rigorate"d and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provktie of Burmah, 8.1.
