LETTER FROM MR . WM . HICK , NORTHERN STAR OFFICE , LEEDS . " Northern Star Office , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 . Cf p entlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , at IX your earliest convenience , the same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from communicating the flattering intelligence of the great good your pills are doing in Leeds and its neighbourhood . It itf clearly a great error to find fault with a medicine merely because it is a patent one ; and more especially since its use has contributed so largely to the public health . The fact is , however , predjudice . is fast givisg way , as it always must where the pill ' s are tried . A few cases in point may serve to . confirm and illustrate what I have asserted . " A young female came into the shop to-day for a box , who stated that they had done her immense good . She had been troubled with a hoarseness so bad that no one could hear her speak ; but having taken a few bosee of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , ehe was completely restored , as was evident by the way she spoke . " Yery many cases of extraordinary cures have occurred among the aged workpeople , both male and female . In one mill , an aged couple , enfeebled by disease and debilitated by premature old age , had become almost past work ; they were persuaded to try a few boxes of PARR'S LIFE PILLS , and in a week were restored and strengthened that they could pursue their employment with pleasure and profit ; so much to , that from being unable to work at their calling more than two days in the week , and this with great physical difficulty and languor ,, they can now not only do a full week's work , but overhours besides . Bad as trade is here , the old people being favourites with the mill owner , are enabled to get as much employment as they can do , which has excited the envy of those younger persons who had been employed in their absence ; and it is a laughable fact , that Parr ' s Pills come in for a share of their rancour . The old people continue to take the pills regularly in small quantities , and find them as necessary to their health and prosperity as their daily fooa . "The next and last case which I shall mention at this time , is one of a most extraordinary nature . I have not seen the individual myself , but I shall give you the fact as I have received it from his employer , and from Mr . J . Hobson , who haa frequently seen him since his convalesence . The man is a working mechanic and bad speat about thirty pounds last year on the doctor , in going to the Isle of Man and other places , for the benefit of his health , but to no purpose . His food had consisted for a long time of nothing but rice milk , the stomach refusing to take anything stronger . His body was greatly emaciated and his temporal prospects clouded ; with a mind filled with melancholy forebodings for the future , he returned to his friends at Leeds , where he was told by his medical adviser that should he be restored a little , his disorder would have its periodical return ; but being advised to try PARR'S LIFE PILLS , he bought a few boxes , which have completely removed his disease , and enabled him to return tp his work , where he was seen a few days ago by Mr . Hobson , ( it being dinner hour ) eating beef-steaks with great gusto ; and to whom he recited with pleasure and gratitude the cause of his then healthy condition , together with a long history of his past affliction "Should the above three cases of cures be worthy of your notice , you are at perfect liberty to make what use of them you think proper . I am , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , " WILLIAM HICK . u To Messrs . T . Roberts and Co ., 9 , Crane Court , Fleet-Btreetj London . " MIRACULOUS CORE F * 0 H THE USE OF PARR ' S LIFE . ; ; : . ; riLLS . ¦' . ¦ - . ¦ . ' :-Copy of a Letter just received by the Proprietors from Mr . Win . Moat , 3 , Cobbett .-street , Shaw ' s Brow , Saiford . ¦ . . - ' u To the Proprietors o f Parr ' s Life Pilla . 11 Gentlemen , —I have the utmost pleasure in forwaTding you this my own case of cure , effected solely by the persevering use of your Parr's Life Pills . Before having recourse to them , I had been , for upwards of five years afflicted with a most distressing malady , which the different medical men who attended me all pronounced to be a serious case of hydrocele ( or dropsy of the scrotum ) , and declared there was no other chance of either relief or cure than undergoing a Burgical operation . I was thus driven almost to despair ; and coneuUed the treatise written by Sir Astley Cooper , wherein he states that the operation is generally attended with considerable danger . I therefore determined not to risk so painful and uncertain an experiment , but rather , ohose to leave the result to nature and Providence . Fortunately , I heard of the great fame of Pabr's Life Pills , and resolved to give them a fair trial . I consequently took them for some time without perceiving any benefit , but still kept persevering ; and I have now taken twelve boxes , and to my great joy I am perfectly well , the dropsy is entirely removed , together with a scorbutic affection , which I had been much troubled with since my return from India in 1827 ; and now there is not a vestige of disease left in my whole system , as I am now in better health and spirits than I have been for fourteen years . I feel certain you would have accounts of far more cures , if people would persevere in the use of the pills , a proper length of time , as I have done . I give you my heartfelt thanks , and authority to publish this letter , and will gladly answer any applications either personally or by letter , and remain your grateful and obliged servant . . ( Signed ) " W . MOAT . II Witness—John Hough , Cheadle , carrier . . « Manchester , Feb . 7 , 1842 . » FROM Mil . HEATON , BO O K SE LLER , LEEDS . . " To the Proprietors of Parr ' s Life Pills . " u Gentlemen , —I am happy to inform yoii that we are daily hearing accounts of the good effects of Parr ' s Life Pills ; to enumerate the cases would be a task too formidable for me , and which has prevented my writing to inform you before , as I can hardly tell where to begin . One man said he wanted a box of Life Pills , for Life Pills they were to him , They had done him so much good , in relieving him of an obstinate cough and asthma . "Another said they were worth their weight in gold 1 as he was not like the same man sinoo he had taken them . "Another said his wife had had a bad leg for years , but after taking one small box , which was recommended by his Class Leader , her leg was much better , and when she had taken the second box , it was quite as well as tho other . , " A very respectable female fcaid her husband had been afflicted above two yearB , and had tried many things , but since he had taken Paer ' s Life Pills he was quite a new man . "You will please send immediately , by Deacon's waggon , 36 dozen boxes at Is . l £ d ., and 6 dozen at 2 s . 9 d . "I am , Gentlemen , yours , respectfully , "JOHN HEATON . w , Briggate , Leeds , Feb . 9 th , 1842 . "To Messrs . T . Roberta and Co ., 9 , Crane Court , Fleet-street , London . " Another most extraordinary case of cure , ' com * municated by Mr . Moxon , of York : —Mrs . Mathers , of that city , had for many years been affected with a most inveterate disease , which her medical attendants pronounced to be cancer . It originated in her breast , and continued to spread nearly all over her body , defying every effort of surgical skill . Parr's Life Pills being recommended , to her , she resolved to give them a trial ; and , speaking of the result , ghe Bays ehe cannot express the inoonoeiveable advantage which she has already derived from them . She further states , that she is now almost well , and ascribes her convalescence solely to the persevering use of that sovereign medicine—Parr ' s Life Pills * N . B . Any one doubting the accuracy of the above statemeat , may , through the agent ( Mr . Moxon ) , be direoted to Mrs . Mathers , who will herself authenticate its truth . —York , Nov . 17 th , 1842 . CAUTION—BEWAKE OF IHITATIONS . In order to protect the public from imitations , the Hon . Commissioners of Stamps have ordered the words Parr ' s Life Pills to be engraved on the Government Stamp , which is pasted round the sides of each box , in white letters on a bed ground . Without this mark of authenticity they are spurious

US- This Work is undeniably the most interesting and important that has hitherto been published on this subject , imparting information which ought to be in the possession of every one who is labouring under any secret infirmity , whether male or female . BY M . WILKINSON , CONSULTING SURGEON , &c . ¦ 13 , Trafalgar Street , Leeds . Of whom they may be obtained , or from any of his Agents . MR . M . W . having devoted hiB studies for many years exclusively to ' the various diseases of the * generative and nervous system , in the removal of those distressing debilities arising from a secret indulgence in a delusive and destructive habit , and to the successful treatment of VENEREAL AND SYPHILITIC DISEASES , Continues to be consulted from nine in tho morning till ten at night , and on Sundays till two , —and country patients requiring his assistance , by making only one personal visit , will receive such advice and medicines as will enable them to obtain a permanent and effectual cure , when all other means have failed . In recent cases of a certain disorder a perfect cure is completed in one week , or uo charge made for medicine after that period , and in those cases where other practititioners have failed , a perseverance in his plan , without restraint in diet , or hindrance from business , will ensure to the patient a permanent and radical cure . A complete knowledge of the symptoms and treatment of these insidious and dangerous diseases , can only be acquired by those who are in daily practice , and have previously gone through a regular course of Medical Instruction ; for , unfortunately , there are hundreds who annually fall victims to tie ignorant use of Mercury and other dangerous remedies , administered by illiterate men , who ruin the constitution by suffering disease to get into the system , which being carried by ths circulation of the blood into all parts of the body , the whole frame becomes tainted with venereal poison , and most unhappy consequences ensue , at one time affecting the skin , particularly the head and face , with eruptions and ulcers , closely resembling , and often treated as scurvy , it another period produoing the most violent pains iu tho limbs and bones , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism ; thus the whole frame becomes debilitated and decayed , and a lingering death puts a period to their dreadful sufferings . What a grief for a young person in the very prime of life , to be snatched out of time , and from all the enjoyments of life , by a disease always local at first , and which never proves fatal if properly treated , as all its fatal results are owing either to neglect or ignorance . Mr . W . ' s invariable rule is to give a Card to each of his Fatients as a guarantee for cure , which he pledges himself to perform , or return his fee .

Wood , Bookseller , 78 , High Street , Birmingham ; and by all Bookseller in the United Kingdom . " The various forms of bodily and mental weakness incapacity , suffering and diseae " , faithfully delineated in this cautiously written and practical vvoik , are almost unknown , generally misunderstood , and treated upon principles correspondingly erroneous and superficial , by the present race of medical practitioners . Hence the necessity for the publication of a timely safeguard , a silent yet friendly monitor , or , where debility has made threatening inroads , the means of escape and the certainty of restoration . The evils to which the book advens are extensive and identical in their secret ynd hiddv-n origin , and there are none to whom , as Parents , Guardians , Heads of Families , and especially of public Schools , is confided the care of young people , who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and those salutary cautions this work is intended to con vey . Not only are the most delicate forms of generative debility neglected by the family physician , but they require for their Fafe management tho exclusive stndy of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice , and ( as in other departments of the profession ) attentively concentrated in the daily and long continued observation requisite for the correct treatment of sexual infirmities . " If we consider the topics upon either in a moral or social view , wo find the interests and welfare oi mankind seriously involved . The effects of licentious , indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain practices , are described with an accuracy and force which display at once profound reflection and extensive practical experience . "—The Planet , " The b . st of all friends is the Phofessional FaiEND : and in no shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secrecy than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour . " The initiation into vicious indulgenceits progress—its results in both sexes , are given with faithful , but alas ! for human nature , with afflicting truth . However , the Authors have not exposed tho evil without , affording a remedy . It Bhows how " Manly Viooub" temporarily impaired , and mental and physical emasculation , produced by uncontrolled indulgence of the passions , can be restored ; how tha sufferer , who has pined in anguish from the consequ ; nces of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter h > 3 fellow man , can regain the vigour of health and moral courage . The work is written iu a concise and perspicuous style , displaying how often fond parents aredeceivedby th-i outward physical appearance of their youthful off-pring ; howtheattenuationoftho framo . paJpitBtionofLhe hpart . derangement ofthenorvous system , cou ^ h , indigestion , and a train of symptoms indicative of consumption or general decay , are often ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural results of congenital debility or disease , are the consequences of an alluring and pernicious practice , alike destructive to the mind and body . " —Bell ' s New Weekly Messenger . ^ " Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for tbe expression of opiuion upon the merits of a medics ! work , this remark is open to exception in any instance where the public , and not the isolated and exolusive members of the profession , are the parties addressed . Upon that whioh is direoted to men indiscriminately , th ^ world will form its own opinion , and will demand that niedieal works for popular Btudy should be devoid of that mysterious technicality in which the science of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance . The work before us treats of subjects we behove generally , yet very strangely , neglected by the medical attendant , ana requiring doubtlessly Us in operative midwifery and the surgery of the tyu ) au entire devotedness to a deeply important ; branch of stud y . The - tone of this book is highly moral , and it abounds in wellwritten , harrowing , yet correct displays of the suffering consequent upon unbridled sensualism . No human being can be the worse for its perusal ; to multitudes it must prove a warning beacon , a wolltold appeal to reason , a permanent blessing . It is written in a clear intelligible style , and is evidently the production of a mind long and practically conversant with tbo diseases of tho most delicate division of the human organization .

TO THE WOBLD . "VTERVOUSNESS is a term which embraces » JLY frightful catalogue of disorders—even to insanity itself—to describe a tenth part of the symptoms nervous patients experience would fill g volume ; but although their variety is so great , they are all referable to one and the same cause . A nervous patient is like a musical instrument with its chords loosened , emitting all sorts of discordant instead of harmonious sounds . What is , therefore , wanted to restore a nervous patient to health ? Tha answer is , equalizing the circulation of the blood , more especially in the vessels of the brain , and by that means restoring to nature her lost equilibrium . A medicine calculated to do this must be one that —entering the circulating medium , will regenerate or make anew , and of a totally different character , the various secretions of the body , upon whica nervous health depends . Numerous , indeed , have been the oases where imbecility of mind was manifested in various ways ; that individuals have been restored to their friends and society by a steady course of that mighty medicine DR . HAMILTON'S VITAL PILLS ; and this too , after having tried all sorts of proposed remedies in vain—therefore despair not , but have recourse to this wonder-working remedy , and you will have more cause to rejoice , than if you were possessed of the wealth of the Indies . . In Liver Complaints , Consumption , Indigestion , Gout , Scrofula , Rheumatism , tendency to Apoplexy , Asthmas , Head-ache , Bilious Disorders , Femalo Complaints , See ., this medicine has also manifested its all-conquering powers . All who have tried these Pills speak of them in the highest terms , and are zealously recommending them to the afflicted . " We have a , great antipathy t . o what is termed quack medicines , but although all proprietary medicines are ranked as such , we consider Dr . Hamilton ' s Tital Pills an honourable exception , and to which all others we know or ever beard of . bear no comparison in point of merit . We speak advisedly , when we say that the powers of this singular compound in subduing disease under any form in which it may declare itself , appear perfectly miraculous . We ourselves know of instances where this medicine has been continued to be taken day by day , for months together , in obstinate chronic complaints , and yet the patients feeling new powers of life , a sort of re-animation , and stronger and better in every respect , have been thereby encouraged to persevere , and have had the happ iness to iain the grand end in view—that of being cured of the malady under which they had laboured . We pronounce this to be a triumph in medical science , and hail it as the harbinger of happiness to the human race , for health is of the highest importance . We think they are with great truth called " Vital Pills . "—London Morning Adver liser , July 5 , 1842 .

I , Richard Garner , of Hull , blacksmith , have for a length of time been afflicted with leprosy , and bave had the first and best medical advice . Have been an inmate of a public hospital , have had powerful means employed , and have not found myself one jot better by all that was done ; and in the short space of a fortnight , by taking the Pills and using the ointment recommended by Mr . Kerman , I find myself so mHoh restored that I am able to work with comfort , one of my hands was one discharging surface , making it impossible for me to follow my employment ; but it ia now perfectly healed .

As you say it is bo often disputed that there is a cure for the Evil , I make this statement to the publio , that is , I laboured for many years under the above complaint , and my friends secured the most experienced and expensive advice , a fortune almost was spent ia attempting to procure a remedy for me , without being in the slightest manner effective . I was recommended / to your medicine by a person who had been remedied of a similar affection . I heed not it being private , I am thankful that I can now say I have been free from it in eveiy form for years , and 6 njoy as good general health as any man , through the means of taking the valuable Pilla and using the ointment prepared by yon , I soon found relief but continued the medicine fora length of time , and the result was a total and perfect remedy .
