Dtdf space permit, we could giva many hund ired certificates fiotn all parts wher* ihe pilla have been used, but evidet.te even more convinc ing than the experience of public men. found in their effects upon trial. Ibese pills, the ,esult of long investigatioa and study, are offered to the public as the best and most complete whu-h the present state ot medical science can afford. They are compound ed not ol the drug's theoiselvea, but of the medic itial virt e# only of vegetable remedies extracted by chemical process u, a state of purity, and mbinttd together ir such a manner as to insura the best .results. This system ol cornpoaition for medicine has beer, lound in the Cherry Pectoral and PiU.i both, lo produce a more efficient teme dy than had tbcr'o been obtained by any srs •ress. The reason is perfectly vious. \Uiile by the old mode ol composition, every medicine is burdened with more or less of acnmonieus at injurious qu litiea. by this each individual, virtue only that is desired for the curative effact is pre»ent. All the inert and obnoxious uuali ties ol each substance employed are left bAind, curattte virtues or ly ben th gretair ed.

Many eminent 'physician* have declar ed the »8me thirgof my pills, aid even more con fidently. and ire willing to certify Ibat iheir an ticipations were more than realized by their el tects upon ti ial.
