Nearly all classes oe disease, are - caused by some
obstructions in the system, whicb prevent the rev-
Int• and wholesome operation of the. mom.' func
tions. This state or the systeM, is disease, which is
manifested in a variety of terms, metre or less :id
lignanVin their character. To restore the system
to a state of health, then, it is only necessary to remove.
the cause of disease, and the end is accomplished.—
The cause is obsti action somewhere. This can, be
removed by purgation, which is'the only,tneans that
should be resorted to;becatO.e, suggested by reason,
and by nature.. Dr. Ilarlich's Strengthening and
German Aperient Pills, are allowed by the thousands
k, Ito have used them, to be the best purgative medi
--im--existence.----Bccuostylientot--mily---remtive
all obstructions and purge the system of its impuri
ties, but because, ar.d.w loch is extremely important,
strengthen and give proper tone to.the stomach, and ,
produce ti - healthy action of all the parts. Besides,
they ,are so ,mild and wink' in . -their operation, as to
render theta at all times a perfectly safe atuldesirit
bill. remedy. The aillicted • woultl - do' well, then, to
purchase a box or two. of this invaluable medicine,
and . givuit trial, instead of destroying their
systems with oft-repeated doses of calomel, and oth
er drugs, so injurious to hanum Mil and happiness.
