HOW PILLS ARE MADE.

; Tho custom of takihgnienioliio in tho form of_ pills dates far backfin history. . * Tho; objoct is to enable u< to swallow easily in a condensed form disagreeablo : ' ahd.nausexi3.but very useful drugs. To what; vast dimensions pill-taking has :'-'■ grown may bo imagined when wo say thatinEiiglandalotio abnut2,ooo l ooo,ooo , two thousand million) pills oreconsumed every year. In early days pills'were made slowly by hand, as tho domandwas comparatively small. To-day thoy aro produced with infinitely greater rapidit by machines especially contrived for th ■ purpose, and with greater accuracy, too in tho proportions of the various ingred ionts employed. No form of medication oan bo better than a pill, provided only it is intelligently prcpared.'But right' here occurs tho difficulty. .• Easy as it may seem to make a pill, or a million of them, there are'really very few pills that can be: honestly commpnded i for popular use, Most of them either undershoot or'overshoot tho mark.' As everybody takes pills of inmo kind, it may be well to mention what a good, safe and pill should be. Now, whon one feels/jj dull and sleepy, and ha" more or: less 9 pain in tho head, sides, aud back, ho may be sure his bowels are constipated and Ins liver sluggish. To remedy this unhappy state of.things there is.nothing . like a pood'cathartic pill. • It will act liko'a charm'by stimulating the liver into doing its duty, aud ridin?. tho. digestive organs of the accumulated'poisonous matter, ..'. ■..; But the good pill does not gripe and pain us. 'neither! Joes it make oVsick and miserable for a few hours, or a whole day. ]t acts on the entire glandular '" system at the samo time, else,the after ■ effects of tho pill will be worse than the disease itself. Tho griping caused by ■ most pills is tho result of irritating drugs which thoy contain, Such pills aro harmful, and should nover be used. They sometimes even produce hemorrhoids, Without having any particular!desire to praise oue'pill abovo another, we may, novorthelpss, name MotherSeigell'sPills, manufactured by the well-known house of A. ,1 White, Limited, 35, Farrmgdon Road, London, and. now Bold by all cliomists mi medicino vendors, as tho only ono wo know ot that notially possesses every desirable qualitv. 'Thoy remove tho .presauro upon tne brain, "orrcot the liver, and,cause the bowels to act with ease and regularity, Thoyrever • gripe or produce the eliprhtest sickness of tho stomach, ur any other unpleasant feeling or symptom, Neither do they induce further constipation, as nearly all other-pills do. Asa tnrther and crowning merit, Mother Seigell's Pills are covered with a tasteleis and harmless coating, which causes them to resemble pearls, thus rendering them as pleasant ' to tho palato as thoy aro effective in curing disoases, If yon have a severe cold, and are threatened'with a lever, with pains in the head, backhand limbs, ono or two doses will break up the cold and prevent the fever, A coated tongue, with a brackish tasto in the muuth,. caused by foul matter in the stomach. A dose of Seigel'a Pills will effect a speedy cure, Oftentimes partially decayed food in the Btomach and bowlea prndnces sickness, nausea, &o, • Cleanse tho bowelß with a dose of these pills, and good health will follow, Unlike many kinds of pills,' they do . hot make you leel worse bofore you aro better. They are, without doubt, tho best family physio over discovered. They remove all obstructions to tho nature. fuuotions without any unpleamnt effects,
