HOW PILLS ARE MADE.

The custom of taking medicine in tie form of pills dates far back in history, Tho ohjoct is to oiiablo ui to swallow easily in a condensed form disagreeable find nauseus, but very useful drugs. To what vast dimensions pill-taking has grown may bo imagined when we cay thntinEngloiidalonoabout2,ooo,ooo,ooO two thousand million) pills areconsumed every year. In early days pills were made slowly by hand, as the demandwaj comparatively small. To-day thoyaro 'St produced witli infinitely greater rapidib by machines especially contrived for th jiurposo, and with greater accuiacy, too in tho proportions of tho various ingred ienta employed. No form of medication can be better than a pill, provided only it is intelli- . gently prepared. But right here occurs tho difficulty. Easy as it may seem to ■■' make a pill, or a million of thorn, there are really vory few' pills that Can bo honestly commended for popular uso. Most of them cither undershoot or overshoot tho mark. As overyhodv takes pills of mm kind, it may be "well to<v.. y mention what a good, safo and reliablSm' pill should be. Now, when 0110 fcelsW.-' dull and sleepy, and ha« more or less • pain in the head, sides, and back, he may be sure his bowels aro constipated ■■ and his liver sluggish, To remedy this . unhappy state of things thero is nothing like a good cathartic pill.

It acts on tho entire glaudulac--ffcL_ : , system at the samo time, else the after , '*** effects of the pill will bo worse thau tho ■ disease itself. The gripins causod by most pills ib the, result of irritating drugs which they contain. Such pills are harmful, and should nover boused. .They sometimes even produce hemorrhoids. Without having any particnlat desire to praise one pill abnvo another, we may, nevertheless, name Mother SeigeU'aPilfs, manufactured by tho well-known house of A J White, Limited, 35, Farringdon Koad, London, and now sold by all • cbnuußts and medicine vendors, as the only one we kuow ot that act lally possesßes every deiirablo quality, Thoy removo tho.pressure upon tho brain, '•orrcot tho liver, and cause the bowels to act with ease and regularity. They rover gnpe or produce the (lightest sickness of the stomach, ur any other unpleasant ' feeling or symptom. Neither do they V induce further constipation, as nearly all ' other pills do.
