Mechanic Arts will certainly accomplish.

as at the Old Regulator which has so long -

to the conclusion that there is only one way j <
to sell Goods, and that is to let the people,'
know we have them to sell, and sell them at:'
prices which will be an inducement to those
in want to buy of u~; and for this purpose we 1
have chartered a.coluniu in the Journal where j
we intend to kp tiie people posted as to M
what may be l'ound at our establishment. — j ;

that the people may know what we keep to j

FOR ALL TLDI PSRPOSEB OF A
| FAMILY PHYSIC,
TUERF. has long existed a public demand for au
effective purgative pill which could be relied on a*
sure and perfectly safe in its operation, litis has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an extern
, sive trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with
I what success it accomplishes the purpose designed.
It is easy to make a physical pill, but not easy to
make the best of all pilh —one which should have
none of the objections, but all the advantages, of
every other. This has been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully submit to
the public decision. It has been unfortunate fur
tfie patient hitherto that almost every purgitiv
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the how,
ela. This is not. Many of them produce, sq.muA
griping pain and revulsion in the system as tpmcrf
than counterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
; Uiless it arise from a previously existing obstruc
tion or derangement in the bowfils. Iking purely
vegetable, no harm can arise' from their use in any
quantity ; but it is better, that any medicine snmud
■ be taken judiciously. Minufc directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are ap
plicable are given on the box. Among the com
plaints which have been snecdilv cured by them, we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Lyss of Ap
petite, Listles9iiess, Irritability, Bilious Headache,
j Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain * r '
and Loins; for, in truth, all these are hut the con
-1 sequence of diseased action in the liver. A* an
aperient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cm
tiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof
ula and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body.
Ulcers and impurity of the blood ; in short, any
and every case where a purgative is required.
They nave also produced some singularly
ccssful cures in Rheumatism, Ggut, Dropsy, Gravel,
Ervsipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in tne
Back, Stomach, and Side. T'hey should b freer;
! taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change of season'
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach ar-'
, bowels into healthy action, and restores tag apj*-
. tite and vigor. I hey purify the blood, and, by the..-
stimulant action on the circulatorv system, reno
vate the strength of the bodr, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the wliola organiu"
Hence an occasional dnse is advantageous, even
though no serious derangement exists; but tin
i necessary dosing should never be carried too (*'•
as every purgative medicine reduces the strcwr--,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases x wl^ c
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, >u t
they suggest themselves to the reason of ' Te U
body; and it is confidently believed this pm y l '
answer a better purpose than any thing a
hitherto been available to mankind. AVhen e '
virtues arc once known, the public will n0 l on / l
~ doubt what remedy to employ when in need o
cathartic medicine. Being sugar-wrapped they -a*
pleasant to take, and being purely vcgcta ).c,
narm can arise fVom their use in any quant' v.
