HOLLOWAY'S

PILLS.. · Counsel and Comfort.-A disordered stomach throws the whole system out of gear, and renders us unfitted both for work and amusement. A few doses of these

strengthening and purifying Pills taken according to the accompanying di

ections will, however, speedily restore order, and re-enable the ston ach to dige t its food without difficulty. These excellent Pills are suitable alike for the peer as the peasant, the soldier and the sailor, and particularly for home and foreign colonists. Holloway's Pills are very useful in checking feverish attacks, bilious complaints, and inflammations. They have also made the most signal cures in cases of dropsy, and diseases of the kidneys, heart, and lungs when the sufferers seemed past the aid of medicine.

SIX MEDALS AWARDED TO J. S. FRY & SONS.

Extract

[blocks in formation]

This perfectly pure and delicious beverage, consisting of choice Cocoa Nibs debrived of the superfluous oil, is strongly recommended to all those consumers of Cocoa who, whilst they appreciate the full flavour and fine aroma of the Nut nevertheless find the oil too rich.

To those under medical care who are obliged to avoid rich articles of diet, and to whom tea and coffee prove too stimulating, this very delicate preparation of Cocoa will be of great value,

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.- Good Spirits. Everyone has frequently experienced sudden personal changes from gaiety to gloom. The weather oftimes receives the blame when a faulty digestion is alone the cause of the depression. Holloway's Pills can be honestly recommended for regulating a disordered stomach, and improving digestion. They entirely remove the sense of fulness and oppression after eating. They clear the furred tongue, and act as a wholesome stimulant to the liver, and as a gentle aperient to the bowels. They healthfully rouse both body and mind. Holloway's Pills are the best known antidotes for want of appetite, nausea flatulency, heartburn, languor, depression, and that apathy so characteristic of chronic derangement of the digestion.
