HOLLOWATS PILLS.— The Great Need.— 

 The blood is the life, and oq its purity depends our 

 health, if not our existence. These Pills thoroughly cleanse 

 this vital fluid from all contaminations, and by that power 

 strengthen and invigorate the whole system, healthily stimu- 

 late sluggish organs, repress over-excited action, and establish 

 order of circulation and secretion throughout every part of the 

 body. The balsamic nature of Holloway's Pills commends 

 them to the favour of debilitated and nervous constitutions, 

 which they soon resuscitate. They dislodge all obstructions. 

 both in the bowels and elsewhere, and are, on that ac ount, 

 much sought after for promoting regularity of action in young 

 females and delicate persons who are naturally weak, or who, 

 from §ome cause, have become ao.
