CONSTIPATION.
Or costiveness, is one of the most frequent results of liver complaint, anclrequiresprotnpt and careful attention, for if the faecal matter becomes impacted in the bowels dangerous effects are to be apprehended. The justly celebrated Dr. Abernethy said thatinattention to the action of the stomach and bowels was the cause of ninety per cent, of our physical ailments, and modern science has proved this assertion correct. Care, however, requires to be observed in the choice of remedies, for there are numerous drastic and violent cathartics sold under various fancy names, but Dr. Fletcher's Pills are used with the best advantage in such cases. These pills are from the prescription ©f Dr. Bell Pletcher, of Birmingham, England, and were used by him in bis private and General Hospital practice there for many years with the greatest success. This, as a matter of course, proves their reliability, and Mr A. M. Beauchamp, Bata, Bangitikei, IST. Z , says :—‘ I wish to inform you of the good Fletchers Pills are doing here. Everybody uses them, and speaks well of them ; and so do I, for they are the best I ever used in my life.’ They can be obtained from all medicine vendors, or direct from E, M. Clements, Sydney, for thirteen penny Btamps.
