HOW PILLS ARE MADE

The Custom of taking medicine m the form of bills' dates far bade m history. The 1 object is to enable us to swallow easily m a condensed form disagreeable and nauseous, but very use* fal, drags. To what vast dimensions pill taking has grown may be imagined, when we say that m England alone about 2,000,000,000 two thousand million) pills ore consumed every v**»r In early days pills were made slowly by hand, as the demand was comparatively s__all. To-day they are produced m infinitely greater' rapidity by machines especially contrived for the purpose, and with greater adCuraty, too, m the proportions of the various jhgredients employed. " No form ot medication Can be better than a pill, provided only it is intelligently prepared. But right here occurs the difficulty. Easy as it may seem to make a pill, or a million of tbem t^ere 'are really very few' pills that can be hbpestly commended for popular use. Most Of them either undershoot or overshoot the mark . As everybody takes pills of some kind, it may be Well to mention what a good, safe, and reliable pill should be. Now, when one feels dull and sleepy, and has more or less pain m the head, sides, and back, he may be sure hjs bowels are constipated, and his liver sluegish. ' To' remedy this ilnhappy state 'of things there is nothing like a 'good cathartic p-1. It will feet like a charm by 1 stimulating the liver into doing its duty, qnd ridding the digesdve organs of the ty£umai^ted poisonous matter, gut the good pill does not gripe and pain

us neither does it ma- eus sick and miserabl for a few hour, or a whole day. It ac^s on the entire glandu'ar system at the same time, else the after effects of the pill will be wore? than the disease iise f. The griping caused by most pills is the r.su t ofirrititingdrjgs which they contain. .*• uch pil's are harmful, and should nsver be used. They sometimes even produce I hemorrhoids. Without having any parlicu a- : desire to prai-e one pil above another we I nny, neverthe ; eis, name Mother Seig I's Pills manufactured hy ihe well known hous: of I A. J. White, I imi'.cd, 35 Farringdon Road I ondon, and r.ow sold by all eh mists anrl medicine vendo* s, rs the only on. to. know of that actually pos es s every desirabl quality. They remove the pressure upon ihe bain, correct the liver, and cause the bowels to act with ease and r. gulauty. They n ver gris.e or produce the slightest sickness of the stomach, or any other unpleasar t feeing or symptom. Neither do they induce further constipation, as 1 early all other pil's do. As a further and crowning merit, Moth r Fei el's Pills are covered with ataseless and harmless coiting, which causes them to resemble pearls, thus rendering them as ple-sant to the pa'ate as they are effective m curing disease, if you have a severe cold and are threatened with a lever, with pains m the head, back, and limbs, one or two doses will break up the cold and prevent tbe fever. A coated tongue, with a brackish toste m the mouth is caused by fo.l matter m the stomach. A dose of Seigel's Pilis will effect a speedy cure. Oftentimes partia'ly decayed food m the stomach and bowels produces sickness,, nausea, etc. Cleanse the bowels with a dose of these pills, and good health will follow.

Unl-ke many kinds of pills, they do not make you ft el worse before you are better. They are, without doubt, the best family phys'c fver discovered. They remove all obstruction to the natural functions m either sex without any unpleasant eff-cts.
