A MAT Ui! AIL RMBDY,
Suited lo our Constitutions, and competent to the
cure of every curable disease ivill be found in ihe
INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS,
OF THE
jtforlli Auicvicasa. College of Hcallli.
THESE extraordinary Pills are composed Of
plants which grow spontaneously on our own soil;
and are therefore, better adapted to our constitu
tions, than medicine concocted from foreign drugs,
however well they may be compounded; and as
THE INDIAN VE GETABL E PILLS are found
ed upon the principle that the human body is in
truth
SUBJECT TO BUT ONE DISEASE,
viz: corrupt humors, and that said medicine cures
this disease on
NATURAL PRINCIPLES
by cleansing and purifying the body; it will be man
ifest, that if the constitution be not entirely ex
hausted a perseverance in their use, according
to directions, is absolutely certain to drive disease
of every name from the body.
When we wish to restore a Swamp or Morass
to fertility, we drain it of the superabundant wa
ters; in like manner if we wish to restore the body
to health, we must cleanse it of impurity.
THE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS
Will be found one of the best, if not the very best
medicine in the world for carrying out this
GRAND PURIFYING PRINCIPLE,
because they expel from the body all morbid and
corrupt humors, the cause of disease in an easy
and NATURAL MANNER; and while they every
day ' s
GIVE EASE AiD TEEASUKE,
disease of every name is rapidly driven from the
body. i
The above named Indian Vegetable Pills, have
been three years befoie tho American public; and
we can now say without fear of contradiction, that
of all the various medicines which have -heretofore
been popular, not one has given such universal
satisfaction, or obtained such a permanent hold
upon the affections of the people. Not only do all
who use it invariably experience relief, and re
commend itin the strongest terms: but it has ef
fected some of the most astonishing cures ever
performed by medicine.
Hitherto, very fewtof the numerous testimonials
which have been received in favor of this extraor-
dinary medicine have been published, as the med
icine obtained its present great celebrity more by
its own intrinsic goodness than from extensive ad
vertisinjr. It has been deemed propehowever to
offer the following opinions of the public press,
together with a few extracts from letters of Agents
merely to show, that the fame of the Indian Vege
table Pills, is not confined to any one section, but
is rapidly extending itself to every part of the Union
Fronisthe Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post.
THE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS.
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are attaining
great celebrity in New England as well as other
parts of the United Stales. The attempt of per
sons to defraud the public by the sale of spurious
articles, meets with general reprobation. Mr,
Wright is an indefatigable business man, and
shows an array of cures by the medicine which
warrant confidence in the virtues of his Indian
Vegetable Pills.
From the Philadelphia Spirit of the Times.
THE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS.
People are pretty well satisfied by this time,
that Calomel, and the other thousand and one min
eral preparations of the shops, are better adapted,
as a general rule, to kill rather than cure the pa
tient; as a matter of course, vegetable, medicines
are theroforo in great request. There are very
many humbugs, however, among the latter, and
we would advise all those who have the least re
gard for their health, to try the INDIAN VEGE
TABLE PILLS OF THE NORTH AMERICAN
COLLEGE OF HEALTH, sold at 109 Race
street, Phladolphia ; as they are tho preparation of
one intimately acquainted with tho healing art.
From the Doston Daily Times.
INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS.
Of all the public advertised medicines of the
day, we know of nohe that we can more safely re
commend for the "ilb that flesh is heir to" than
tho Pills that arc sold at the depot of tho North
American College of Health, No. 198 Tremont
street, Boston. Several instances we know o
where they are used in families with tho highest
satisfaction; and no longer ago than yesterday, we
heard an eminent Physician of the city recommend
them in high terms. There usod to be in the
community, a great repugnanco to the use
QUACK medicines, asthoyare all indiscriminate
ly termed, but it was mainly owing to the regular
M. D.'s constantly denouncing them. They are
however, becoming more liberal in this respect, and

the consequence is thatggod vegetable medicines1
are now more extensively nco,i r i

Dear Sir: About two months ago, T had biH
neas in .oauimore, and called at your office ami
bought a few boxes of the Indian Vegetable Pilfe.
and upon trying them I found them to be far supel
rior to Pills, or any other medicine I had
ever used. I had been subject to a cough for five
years past, and during the time have taken a vari
ety of medicines without any relief, until I got the
Indian Vegetable Pills, and by taking four doses,
the cough began to leave me; and I nowenjoy bet.
ter health than I have done for years past After
I found them to be a valuable medicine, I imme
diately sent ta Baltimore for. a large supply. 1
have received so much benefit in using the 7Ar
DIAN VEGETABLE PILLS that I cannot
help but recommend them to every invalid I sec
and think so well of the medicine that I have sent
two dozen boxes to my invalid friends, in the
State of Indiana. Signed,

From G. C. Black, New York.
Mr. Wm. Wright Pear Sir you will please to
forward as soon as possible, some of your Indian
Vegetable Pills: as we are almost out of the arti
cle, and they appear to be getting into general use
here. We have a great call for the medicine at
present, and those that have used them, speak very
high of them. Onegentleman attributes his being
cured of Dropsy to rfre use of thenrb and another
has been cured of Dv"sphpsia, solely by the use of
your Indian Vegetable Pills, and is willing you
should publish his case if you think proper.

Doctor Wright Dear Sir Having some knowl
edge of your most excellent compound INDIAN
VEGETABLE PILLS, and not knowing how to
get a fresh supply, my stock being nearly exhaust-
ed, and wishing to always have them in my family,
I take this method to open a correspondence with
you. The pills alluded to are well thought of here
and very much wanted. I wish to make arrange
ments with you for a constant supply, as I think
a very great quantity could be sold in this section
of the country.
Extract of a letter from Samuel Griffith, Stewart
town, York County, Pa.
Mr. W. Wright Dear Sir I am selling the In
dian Vegetable Pills by the dollars worth, and at
that rate the stock of Pills, left by your travellings
agent, will soon be out.
I am pleased to find .they are such ready sale.
Those who have used them, speak in the highest
terms of them. Many have already lound great;
relief from their use, and when the cures arefinal-
y effected, I shall do you the justice to inform you..
of the same.
Extract of a letter from Washington City;
Mr. Wm. Wright Dear Sir You will have the
iindness to forward me as soon as possible, to'o or
three gross of the Indian Vegetable Pills. The
sales have, for the last two months, increased rap-
dly; those who buy, generally remarking, "that
they are the best pills they have ever used;" and
my opinion is that they will in a short time super-
cede-all others in this city.

We could mention many other cases, but deem
it unnecessary at this time; but would merely say;
that as the season is fast approaching when there
will be a great demand for tho Indian Vegetable
