[264 H E CHAMPION LIVER AND STOMACH PILLS. These Pills are compounded from the recipe of one of the most eminent physicians of the present day (who, from purely philanthropic motives-knowing their excellent properties from experience—has been induced to give the benefit of them to the public at large). They are prepared by an able, and experienced chemist, and are acknowledged, by the faculty, t., be the most valuable medicine for all disorders of the stomach and derangements of the liver evr prepared. It is a well-known fact that most of the dispases incident to the human race arise from a disordered stomxeh, and an irr u'ar state of the bowels, and for want of a suitable remedy, taken in time, thousands of (at first) simple malaxes become seri,,u, illnesses. To guard ayainst this great evil, amt to preserve the bles- sings of health, these pdls ate confidently and earuestly recommended. They act generally on the constitution, cleanse the blood of all impurities; regulate the secretions, and give toi-e to the stomach; correct the morbid condition of the liver, regulate the bowel*, and. by removing all imp. diments. restore elasticity and vigour to the whole frame. ———— Sold in boxes (with directions for use) ls.^d. and nd. each (a saving by taking the larger size). 2 Sold Wholesale bv Messrs.

This invaluable Medicine, which has been known throughout the UNITED KINGDOM for nearly half a century, and recognised by all who have tried it to be the BEST PURIFIER OF THE BLOOD, is admirably adapted to supply a great want—that of a remedy always at hand, easy of application, and cer- tain in its results. Its timely aid prevents, and its assistance cures, all Diseasps, however caused; and where these Pills are persevered with DOCTORS' BILLS ARE UNKNOWN. Being a purely vegetable preparation, they may be taken at any time by either sex without fear f danger. Acting upon the bowels mildly, yet effectually, by their fine tonic, aromatic, and aperient properties, they re- move all oppressive accumulations, regulate the secre tions of the liver and bowels, strengthen the stomach, and purify the blood.
