npiIEFE MLLB are composed entirely of Vegetable
A s>ulietan.-es, and in nnity-ni'-e cases out of every hntt
dred, wti! perf rm a perfect and Complete cure in three
days. No instance his ever been known, where more
than six daxs. hiv- been required to perferm a corni letp
cure, even in iae very v.'ors'. cases, and on the strr.r.ge*:
constitutions. We would earnestly =ay to all who are
afflicted witti tfiis distressing disease, to get one box and
'ry them, ami in all crises, Iwo boxes are w irranted to
ettre, if taxen according to the directions, or the money
returned.
rhese pills not only perform a perfect cure in three
days, but r.-inove the bile and create a healthy tction of

This Medicine is a certain cure for Dysp.-;.?:,-. it, i-*
very worst forms. Thousamls of cast s have h. ei con .
pletelv cur-d by it wltliin the last year, which hive,
n-en entirely despaired ■ f by the regular family fin-.-
ctans. We do not recommend it to t urn everything— tve
recommend it to cure Dyspepsia, at,d Ih d season nr.- i
natios from i', and that it will car ■ In almost ever-, rase,
and it is recommended for nothing rhe. J n manv in
stances, even the worst of casts h .ve been comjd. tcly
cured in txvo at.d three months, hut it depends somewhat
npon rhe constitution ( f '.he patient. We would sar to
all who ar>* afflicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine
a fair trial, and if it fails to do good, your money wtii.be
returned.
ALSO,
My Vegetable V.'orm Powders.
This ia the most wonderful Worm De trover ever
known, ami the. same time, so pleasant to take, that
almost every child will he fond of it. and many instances
have been known pf children crying for more after once
taking it.
This medtc.r.e is in th form of a powder, the only
medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on u
principle entirely different front any other medicine ever
administered by any tUter physician. It is the only
medicine which has no Worm-wed Oil or Turpentine
combined with it, which is believed by all othe.r phi i
--ciat.s, to be the only two tilings which will destroy
xvorni#, ami these two things combined, together with
castor on are the active principles of all rthcr worm
ntediclnee, xvhirh every person who has ever tasted or
smell, d, knows to be the moat nauseous of alt nauseous
medicines, and on account of which, there is generally
something added to destroy this nauseous taste, and in
order to do this, it tou.-t be something stronger than the
medic.ne itself, and therefore, it muet necessarily destroy
umne of it* medicinal properties. These powders are
simple and so harmless, that a child may eat a wh.fle box
at once, and it will not be hurt, while at the same time,
the principle upon which it arts being different from any
thing else ever used, it will d.:tr.,y all kinds of Worms
xvith a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy
the seat worms, or Ascarides, and lone, round worms o;-
Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the deslruc.
tion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one person
if your -hildreu have any symptoms of worms, try
these powders, and in nine cases out of ler.yoa will nev
er use any other. These are also warranted.
These medicines are all separate, and one for earh dis
ease, and each for only one disease. They are not rc
cntnmended, as many other medicines are, to cure some
fifteen or twenty diseases, and all of different natures,
hut they are each to cure but one disease, and Hat they
will do in ninety -nine cases out of every hundred, and
where tiiey hove a fair trial and fail in all cases, the
money will he returned.
