Dyspeptic Cordial deserves more than a passing notice
from me. My case was of the most distressing
nature, and the conflict between my stomach and
food was often severe, the stomach loathing the food,
and time after time throwing it up?frequently with
pain. Add to this greatly depressed spirits, with
debility, nerves weakened, restless nights, frequent
starting with unpleasant dreams. To describe my
situation ia difficult. Physicians were consulted,
various medicines tried, hut nothing met my case
until I met with your Ohio medicine, named Drs.
Dreabach, Kuhn, and Pryor's Dyspeptic Cordial.
Soon after using it my disordered stomach became
soothed. 1 continued the medince?a perfect cure
has been effected?my health is now good and has
been for more than a year. 1 can now use any article
of diet without any inconvenience. In my case
this valuable medicine is incontestable. My ease
is well known to the Rev. J. M. Hanson, having
been associated with him, in the same room, for

DR. IIUSHS LEGACY, the best and cheapest
medicine'ever known?twelve and a half cents
a box.-"-Among the remedies suited to all seasons
of the year, there are none which have attained a
higher reputation, or which can be more confidently
recommended to invalids ofboth sexes, than the celebrated
HEALTH PILLS OF DR. RUSH.
They are mild in their operation, never griping or
giving the least pain, and yet so efficacious, in consequence
of the happy combination of medicinal
agents, that they are enabled' to carry off all the vitiated
and irritating secretions from the alimentary
canal, and remove any inflammation or organic
changes which may have been induced, equalize the
circulation, restore a healthy action to all the excretory
organs, and promote a more vigorous performance
of the organic functions.
Dr. Rush's Infallible Health Pills have received a
flattering approval of many distinguished members of
the medical profession, anahave stood the testof public
opinion tor over half a century. They are a sovereign
remedy for dispepsia or indigestion and all bilious
complaints, erysipelas, and all cutaneous eruptions
or diseases of iJie skin; piles, nausea, dizziness, .
pleurisy, salt rheum, scald head, palpitation of the t
heart, inflammation of the bowels, liver, kidneys, t
Ac., asthma, pains in the side or heart, scrofula. (
They may be administered with the most perfect <
safety to small children, being utterly free from any <
deleterious substances.
The great reduction in price has been made by the
proprietor in consequence of an improvement in the
machinery by which they arc manufactured, and
by which the pills are produced in a purer, better, e
and more effective state. The reduction was also c
required to suit the present times, as well as the
means of a large portion of the population, who car. c
not afford to waste money upon "doctor's stuff,' ii
but want a good, genuine medicine, speedy and cer c
tain in its effects, and one which will not keep them a
at home, but allow them to go about their business
as usual. The proprietor, grateful for the immense a
Success which has attended this invaluable remedy (
?the inestimable legacy of the greatest physician a
this country ever produced?testifies his gratitude by
this step, which, though it may diminish his profits,
ings to the public?his chief object, from the first,
in offering these pills for sale.
Two or three noses will convince the afflicted ot
their salutary effects. The stomach will speedily
regain its strength; a healthy action of the liver, |
bowels, and kidneys, will rapidly take place; and,
instead of listlessness, heat, pains, ana jaundiced (
appearance, strength, activity, and renewed health,
extending to a good old age, will be the result of taking
this medicine, according to the directions accompanying
each box. Try them once, and you
will use no other.
Remember, these pills are only ]9|'cents a box.
