" Ah ! in what perils is vain life engaged ! What slight neglects—what trivial faults—Destroy the hardiest frame . " Disease has been designated , as truly as poetically , the " heritage of humanity . " We are , in fact , both by our organization and our habits , alike subjected to its blighting * influence . Too frequently are we induced , through our social position , to " press the poisoned chalice to our lips , " swallowing with the lucious draught the germs of future suffering and distress . There are , perhaps , no organs in the body whicii suffer so much from frequent disturbance of their functions as those of digestion , and none in which the tone of the stomach is sooner weakened . By the remarkable power of sympathy , morbid phenomena of the most diversified character are propagated throughout the endless chain of nervous communication , occasioning those peculiar symptoms so well understood b y the dyspeptic sufferer . To those , therefore , who suffer from indigestion , bile , sick headache , acidity in the stomach and bowels , heartburn , flatulency , spasms , &c , COCKLE'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS will be found invaluable . May be had of all medicine venders , in boxes , at Is . 14 d ., 2 s . 9 d ., and 4 s . 6 d . ; of whom also may be had

" To Professor Hollo way , " Sir , —I beg to inform you that for nearly five years I hardly kiiew what it was to have a day ' s health , suffering from extreme weakness and debility , with constant nervous headaches , giddiness , and sicKness of" the stomach , together with a great depression of spirits . I used to think that nothing could benefit me , as I had been to many medical men , some of whom , after doing all that was in their power , informed me that they considered that 1 had some spinal complaint beyond the reach of cure , together with a very disordered state of the 9 tomach and liver , making my case so complicated that nothing could be done for me . One day , being unusually ill and in a dejected state , I saw your Pills advertised , and resolved to give them a trial , more perhaps from curiosity than with a hope of being cured , however 1 soon found myself better by taking them , and so I went on persevering in their use for six . months , when I am happy to say they effected a perfect cure .
