A CURE FOR LIFE SECURED.
R. UPIIAM'S Vegetable Electuary,
an internal remedy for the Piles,?preparedsby
Dr. A. Upham, M. D., a regular educated Physician
who has devoted fifteen years attention almost en
tirely to this disease.
The Electuary is a certain cure for the Piles, and
also for other diseases of a similar nature, which are |
frequently found in conjunction with Piles, Rashes,
Inflammation of the Liver, and Spleen; Inflamma
tion, Soreneaa, and Ulceration of the Stomach, Bow
els, Kidneys, and bladder; Inflammatory and Mer-,
curial Rheumatism ; Impurity of Blood; Weakness j
and Inflammation of the Spine.
THE VEGETABLE PILE ELECTUARY _
the only really successful remedy for that dangerous
and diatreasing complaint, the PILES, ever offered
to the American Public.
Mark this: it is an INTERNAL REMEDY?
not an external application?and will cure any case
of Piles, either Bleeding or Blind, Internal or Exter
nal ; and probably the only thing that will. There
is no mistake about it. It is a positive cure?speedy
and permanent. It is also a convenient medicine to
take, and improves the.general health in a remarka
ble manner.
It is very mild in its operation, and may be taken
in ca>e* of the most acute inflammation, without
danger. All external applications are in tho highest
degree disagreeable, inconvenient, and offensive ; and
from the very nature of the disease, temporary in
their ettects. This mrdciine attacks the disease at
its source, and REMOVING THE CAU?iE, ren
ders the cure CERTAIN and PERMANENT.
The Electuary contains mineral medicine, no Jil
oes, Coeocynth, GumOoge, or other powerful and ir
ritating purgative. No fear of taking cohl while unf
der its influence ; no change in diet necessary. If
taken according to directions, a cure for life is guar
anteed !
