"I wish in the highest terms to ex- press the great value of Dr. Hamilton's Pills In cases lilte mine, and, I am sure ulso for elderly people and the very weak there is no pill like them. "Spealiing of my own experience with Dr. Hamilton's Pills, I can say they have proved the most stimulating: pills Cor the liver I have found- I have proved their tonic action upon diges- tion, and the same results have been secured by friends upon whom I have urged their use. The manufacturers arc to be congratulated upon possess- ing so valuable a prescription, and the public should know that so valuable a remedy has been placed at their com- mand." No other pill for constipation, for liver, kidney, or stomach trouble, com- pares with Dr. Hamilton's Pills;, they arc mild and sure always to restore health. Refuse substitutes.
