htood is retarded in its return; the too
frequent use. of gristle, purgatives tends
to produce congestion of the bowels, tor
pid action of the liver, and. numerous
other causes axe the source of this com
plaint, and hitherto nothing effectual has
been presented to the. public,which would
rapidly alleviate symloms and ultimate

we have a remedy which not only acts al
most instantly, but will remove the lar

not only benefit, but have been radically
cured, have been assured ( prior to using
this treatment) by eminent surgeons that
the only relief they ever could expect in
life, wmdd be by an operation, and re
moving it or them from the body by a
procedure which necessitated the knife.

to the readers of the SENTINEL all the particulars necessary for them to
know:
1. We will send ..moles to any on-who will write tl for them, with prieft at
tached, provided a 3 cent post ion Rtanin is enclosed and erorv article mention
ed whieh parties dpsir-, and can ho sampled; but do not write us to send you
samplfs of everything, for that is impossible. Write no firasmntes of Rucb
rrnnde only as yon have s notion of purchasing Remember also, scruples only
give an idea of what the goods are, bu*. do not give tbe ar'iole full justice. ..vj
/
2. Do not hav anv hesitancy in ordering tho pood* yon want, for we guaran
tee every article to come tip to sample, and if unsa'isfactory, it can b returned
t > ns at our expense, and we will refund\the, money.
3. S'tonid any article turn out unsniiainetory, which might occur through an
oversight or otherwise, do not prejudge ns of having and me no intend nally, bnt
give us 'he benefit of the doubt, and bef re returning it write ns your com

antee to fi'l, by giving the tame quali

ordering goods be very particular in
writing their name and shi| p’ng point
in plain lett rs, to avoid mistakes; alst
to make their order us and finite as p s
