HOW PILLS ARE MADE.

Tho custom of taking medicine in the 1 form of pills dates for back in history, The object is to enable us to swallow easily m a condensed form disagreeable and nauseus, bat vory useful drugs. To what vast dimensions pill-taking has grown may be imagined when we Bay that in Engl andalone ab0ut2,000,000,000 two thousand million) pills are consumed every year. In early days pills were made slowly by hand, as the demandwas comparatively small, To-day they tiro produced with infinitely greater rapidifc J by machines especially contrived for th / purpose, and with greater accutaoy, too in the proportions of the various ingred lents employed. No form of modication can bo better than a pill, provided only it is intelli'i?" y l „pr®P"rfld. But light here ocours theidifhculty, Easy as it may seem to make a pill, or a million of them, thera aro really very few pills that can be honestly commended for popular uso. Most of them either ntxlershool or over- ■ shoot tho mark. As everybody takes pills of somo kind, it may be well.'j. mention what a goocl, safa and roliabOT pill should be. Now, whon one feel? dull find sleepy, and lia« more or less pain in the head, sides, and back, ho may be 6iire his bowels aro constipated and Ins liver sluggish. To remedy this unhappy state of things there is nothing like a good cathartic pill, It will act like a charm by stimulating tho liver into doing its duty, and ridin? tho digestive organs of the accumulated poisonous matter. But the good pill does not gripe and pain us, neither Joes it make us' Sick and ttiiserablo for a fow hours, or a wbolo day- ]t acts on the entire glandular system at the samo time, ehe tho effects of tho pill will bo worse than tfio disease itself. The griping caused by most- pills is tho result of irritating drugs which they contain. Such pills wo hdrmful, aud should nover bo used. They sometimes even produce hemorrhoids, Without having any particular deßire to praise ono pill above another, we may, nevertheless, name Mother Seigell'sPills, manufactured by the well-known house of A. J. White, Limited, So, Farringdon Boad, London, and now sold by all chemists and medicine vendors, as tho only ono we know ot thatactaally possesses every desirable quality, They remove the pressure upen the brain, "Orrect the liver, and cause the bowels to act with ease and regularity. They rover gnpo or produco the elightost. sickness of the stomach, or any other unpleasant* fouling or Bjmptom. Neither do they* induce further constipation, as nearly all ' ot her pills do. As a further and crowning merit. Mother Seigell's Pills aro covoved with a tasteless and harmless coating, which causes thorn to resemblo pearls, thus rendering them as pleasant io the palate as they are effectivo in curing disuses, If you havo a severs cold, and wo threatened with a fever, one or two ' n 'b o head, back, and limbs, _ and provo 03e8 will break up the cold* with a b n tthe fovnr. A coated tonguo, 1 caused b rackißh tasto inthemuuth, A doso y ft" l ' w&Mer in the stomach, speedy °' Seigel'i Pills will effect a ' cayed . cure .' Oftentimes partially deprodu i n 'bo stomach and bowks cos sickness, nausea, &o, Oloanse the bowels with a dose of these pills, and food health will follow. Unlika many kinds of pills, they do not make you feel worse before you aro better. They are, without doubt, tho best family phjsioeyer discovered, They remoyo all obstructions to tho nature, functions without any unpleasint effects,
