JL Though Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills have achieved tHumph upon triumph, in the cure of ob stinate cases of diseaSe, even after they had been ehiirely given up, and after all other remedies had failed, yet their power of prevention may be justly esteemed their CR0WX1XG GLORY !

But PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE, tsides being cheaper and less troublesome. The delay of a day in the commencement of sickness has often proved fatal, and always renders the case more diflficult to manage. Let the sickness be caused by CHANGES OF WEATHER, high.living, want oT exercise, close confinement, functional derangement, or anything .else, the ef fect upon the body is much the same is equally dangerous, and is removable by ihe same means.
