THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYR 1 ACUM . Is a gentlostimnlanfc and renovator of the impaired functions of life , and is exclusively directed to the cure of tho Generative System , whether constitutional or acquired , loss of sexual power , and debility arising from byphilitic disease ; and is calculated to afford deoided relief to those who , by early indulgence in solitary habits , have weakened the powers of their system , and fallen into a state of chronic debility , by which the constitution is left in a deplorable state , and that nervous mentality kept up which places the individual in a state of anxiety for the remainder of life .

" Northern Star Office , Leeds , March 17 th , 1842 . ffp entlemen , —You will oblige by forwarding , at IT your earliest convenience , the same quantity of PARR'S LIFE PILLS as last sent . While I am writing I cannot refrain from communicating the nattering intelligence of the great good your pills are doing in Leeds and its neighbourhood . It is clearly a great error to find fault with a medioine 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 giving way , as it always must where the pills are tried . A few' oases in point may serve to confirm and illustrate what I have asserted .
