Houowat's Phis.—The blood, being the very essence of health and life, it is most essential that it should be thoroughly purified before the depressing influences of winter display themselves. These Pills will accomplish this purification in a safe and satisfactory manner, and put ihe circulation in that desirable condition which alone can rightly i form flesh, bone, muscle, nerve, and akin. Capricious appetites, weak digestions, torpid livers, and irregular bowels are corrected by this potent modioine, which may be truly said to induce " a sane mind in a sound body." Holloway's Pills possess the remark* able property of cleansing without weakening. While purifying they are strengthening and adding to those enjoyments of life which health and vigor can alone bestow: Mb Wm. MoCtjiaottg-h having been appointed agent on the Thames for the Imperial Fire Insurance Company, is prepared to take rißki at the lowest rates. The Imperial Com pany was established in 1803, and has a capital of £1,600,000, with its head office at No. 1, Old Broad street, London. The Mcl bourne direqtory has upon it some of the most influential men in that city, and the name the Company has gained for itself by its prompt and liberal settlement of claims, while charging moderate rates, has secured a large amount of business not only in Australian Colonies, but in all parts of the world in whioh agencies hare been established. —Abvt-
