HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.— Weary of Life.— 

 Derangement of the Liver is one of the most efficient 

 causes of dangerous diseases, and the most prolific source of 

 those melancholy forebodings which are worse than death itself. 

 A few doses of these noted Pills act magically in dispelling low 

 spirits, and repelling the covert attacks made on the nerves by 

 excessive heat, impure atmosphere, over-indulgence, or ex- 

 hausting excitement. The most shattered constitution may 

 derive benefit from HOLLOWAY'S PILLS, which will regulate 

 disordered action, brace the nerves, increase the energy of the 

 intellectual faculties, and revive the failing memory. By at- 

 tentively studying the instructions for taking these Pills and 

 explicitly putting them in practice, the most desponding will 

 soon feel confident of a perfect recovery.
