FBI HERE are many family medicines

from their intrinsic virtues have just I v
gained the confidence and gratitude ol

in the scale of curative merit, Dr. Harrell's
Tomato and Slippery Elm Pills stand
pre-eminently above them all; nor is any
apology offered for taking tins higl
ground, unless it is the fact of their supe
perior, and almost miraculous effects in the
cure of diseases. They produce, when ta
ken, a deep and lasting impression that
they stand at the head of all oiher prepar
ed medicines of the day. Fevers, Liver
affections, Jaundice, head-ache, loss of
appetite, costiveness, female complaints
and every disease within the reach of hu
man means; yieiu reauuy to me power
ful, yet gentle operation of these pills
As a cathartic they are copious and free,
as an aperient they are mild and certain,
as a tonic they are prompt and invigorating,
as an alterative they are superior to Calo
mel or any other known remedy, and as i
purifyer of the blood they are unequalled

their occasional use will preserve the
