Aik SHALLER THAN USUAL —lilUpntian, in fact, arc Doctor Pierce’* 1 Pleasant Pellets. I>r. R. V. Pi rce, i Chief Consulting j Physician to the In valids’ Hotel and Surgical In-iitntc, of lhiflaln, N. Y., teas the fir.-t to in troduce a I.ittlc Pill to the American people. For ail laxative and ca thartic purposes tuese sugar-coated Pelleis" are superior in a great many ways to all mineral waters, sedliu powders, sails, castor oil. fruit syrups, laxative teas, and other purgative compounds. Made of concetitr.iti d vegetable ingredients, they act i i a mild, natural war. Their second ary effect is to keep the liver active and the bowels regular, not to further constipate, as is tiie ease with other pills. They don't interfere in the least with the diet, habits or occupation, and produce no pain, grip ing or 'hock to the system. I)r. Pierce’s Pi asant Pellets cure bil iousness, sick and bilious headache, diz ziness. costiveness, or constipation, sour stomach, loss of appetite, coated tongue, indigestion, or dyspepsia, windy beleh ings, "heart-burn," pain and distress after eating, and kindred derangements of the liver, stomach ami bowels. These “Pel lets ” are c.tsily dissolved in the stomach and absorbed into the blood, stimulating a flow of bile from the liver, and arousing to activity all the glandular secretions. Thus they act in nature's oxen levy. In proof of meir superior excellence, it can be truth fully said, that they arc always adopted as a household remedy after the first trial. Put up in glass vials, therefore always freah and reliable. One little “ Pellet ” is a laxative, two are mildly cathartic. As a "dinner pill,” to promote digestion, take one each day after dinner. To relieve distress front over eating, they are nuefjualed. They are tiny, sugar-coated granules; any child will readily take them. Once used, a I trays in fax or. Accept no substitute that may be recom mended to be "just ps good.”". It may be better for the dealer, because of paying him a better profit, but he is not the one who needs help.
