TO SENSIBLE CITIZENS.-We kbo%
from what we see and feel, that the animal
body is, in its organs and functions. subject
to derangement, inducing pain', and tending
to its destyuction. In this disordered state,
we observe nature providing for the re-es
tablishment of order, by exciting some salu
tary evacuation of the morbific matter, orby
some, other .operation, *loch escapes our
imperfect senses and researches. In some
cases she brings on a.ci Isis by the bowelt, in
others by sweating, Etc. Etc.
,Now experience has taught us that,there
are certain substances, by which, applied to
the living body, Miernally or externally, we
can at will produce the same evacuations,
and thus do in a short time, what nature's
could do but slowly, and do effectiiallY what
she might not have strength to accomplish.
When then we have seen a disease cured by
a certain nathralevacuation,.shonid that dis
ease occhr again; we may count
. uponcuriog
it by the use of such substances, as we know
bring about the same evnctia•Llcm, which we
had be lore observed to cure a sihiilar disease.
It Is in consequence of the power which
the Brandreth Pills exert upon the whole
system, that makes them so universally ben
eficial. It is because they iiinpart to the
body, the power to expel disease without
leaving any evil effect.
Asa general family Medicine, Bramlietles
Pills are, it is believed by the Proprietor,
superior to every other offered to the pliblie.
Dr. Brandretles Pills are for sale by the
following Agents in this county.
