HOW PILLS ARE MADE.

Tho custom of taking medicine in the form of pills dales far back in history. The object is to onnblo us to swallow easily in a condensed form disagreeable and nauscus, but very useful drugs. To what vast dimensions pill-taking has grown may bo itnaginod when wo say thatiiiEnglandalone ab0ut2,000,000,000 two thousand million) pills aroconsumed every year. In early days pills wore mado slowly by hand, as tho demand™ comparatively small. To-day thoy aro produced with infinitely greater rapidit J by machines especially contrived for tli C purposo, and with greater accuracy, too in tho proportions of tho various ingred ionts employed. No form of medication can bo bete 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 them, thero aro really very fow pills that can'be honestly commended for popular uso. Most of them cither undershoot or overshoot tho mark. As ovorybody takes pills of tomo hind, it may be well to mention what a good, safo aud roliahto 'tfßpill should bo. Now, when one feiii dull mid sleepy, and lia» moro or less pain in the head, sides, and back, he may be sure bis bowels are constipated and his liver sluggish. To remedy this unhappy state of things there is nothing like a rood cathartic pill. It will act liko a charm by stimulating tho liver into doing its duty, and ridinc the ' digcativo organs of the accumulated poisonous mattor. But the good pill docs not gripe and pain us. neither Joes it make us Bick and miserable fora few hours, orawholo day- It acts on tho.entire glandular system at the samo tiiuo, else the after effects of the pill will be worse than tho disease itself. Tho griping caused by most- pills is tho result of irritating drugs which thoy contain. Such pills aro harmful, and should never bo used. Thoy sometimes oven produce hemorrhoids. Without having any particular desire to praiso one pill abovo anothor, we may, nevertheless, namo Mothor Seigell'sPills, manufactured by tho woll-known house of A. J. White, Limited, 35, Farrlngdon Road, London, and i)Ow sold by all chemists and medicine vendors, as tho only ono wo know ot thab actually posBesses every deiirablo quality. Thoy remove tho pressure upon tiio brain, ■wrecttho liver, and cause the bowch to act with ease and regularity, Thoy cover gnpo or produce the slightest sickness of the stomach, or nny other unpleasant ..m, feeling or symptom. Neither do they \ induce further constipation, as nearly nil other pills do. As a further and orowning merit, Mother Soigoll'o Pills aro covered with a tasteless and harmless. coating, which causes them to resemble pearls, thus rendering them as pleasant to the palato as they are effective in curing diseases. If you have a severo cold, and aro threatened with a lover, ono or twoin the head, back, and limbs, and prevo doses will break up the col d f with a bntthefovnr. Acoatedtonguo, 1 causod brackish tasto in the mouth, yfoul matter Jin the Btomach. A doso of Seigol's Pills will effect a speedy cure. Oftentimes partially decayed food in the slomaoh andbowles produces sickness, nausea, &c. Cleanse the bowels with a dose of these pills, and good health will follow. Unlike many kinds of pills, they do not make you feel worso bofore you are better. They are, without doubt, tho best family'physio ever discovered. They remoyo all obstructions to tho uaturo. functions without any unpleaßint effects.,
