LE ROY ’S SARSAPARILLA AND WILD CHERRY PILLS, Tub o.xly known* Medicine tha.t at xu* same time Purges, Purifies, AND SXRLKGXIJEIiS THE SYSTEM. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Gregory Tisdale, Presiding Physician of the Fleet-street Hospital. LONDON, July 7th. 1846. Dll. LE ROY ’S Bills are a new medicine which has just appeared, and is fast taking the places of all others of the same class. These pills are composed of many ingredients, but the two i principal ones are Sarsaparilla and Wild -Cher ry,so united that they act together; the one, through its admixture with other substances purifying and purging, while the other is strengthening the sys tem. Thus those pills are at the same time tonio and opening, a desideratum long and eagerly sought for by med cal men. but never before discovered. In other words they do the work of two medicines, and do it much better than any two we know of; for they remove nothing irom the svstem but the impurities: so that while they purge they strengthen;and hence they cause nodebilita l tion, and are followed by no re action. Dr. Lo j Hoy’s Pills have a wonderful influence on th® blood; they not only purify without-weakening it, but they remove all noxious particles from tho chyle before it is converted into fluid and tbu« i make impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no debilitation, so there is no nausea or slackness attending-the operations of this most ex cellent of medicines.which never strains or tortures the digestive functions, but causes them to work n a perfectly natural manner; and whence per sons taking them do not become pale and emun dated, but the contrary; for while H is the pro perty of the Sarsaparilla, united as it with other ngredients. tc remove all that is'foreign and im pure, it is equally the p-operty of the Wild Cherry to retain ail that is natural and sound; and hence a robust state of health is the certain result of their united operations.
