evil' of.this policy and practice' is, the in
troduetion of a prepossession 'in favor of
foreign commodities, which is altogether
anti-Arrierican, and which, is one great'cause
of that distiess which is, now the subject of
general complaint. American induitry is
an object of too much.impOrtance 'to' be ne

community are deeply interested-,and the
efforts of • pnblic - men are always usefully

Cure and preventive of Disease.—Brandeeth's
yegetable Universal Pills are' no less a cure than a
preventrve of diseases. • When we 'reel dull, pain in
the head, back or side; weal's , on Alm least exertion,
it is then we ought to take a dose of these Pills. 'ibis
will always have a good.effecti because it is impossi
ble for pam to be in the body without the presence of
those humors which produce-it, it iti only by them
being Ibreed out by purgin ,, . that health can be ,re.
stored.
It is at all times easier to prevent than to cure
dis
case f because, by taking a preventive course we do
not debilitate thwnatural functions of the. body, but
rather strengthen and assist. them; the peculiar.
tion of Braialreth's Vegetable Universal Pills is to
cleanse the blood from all impurities, remove every
cause of pain or Wcaknessond restore the constitti
tion to perfect health and vigor.
