Holloway's Pills. — Joy for Invalids. — The greatest and best chemical combination of the very finest balsams dwells in this excellent medicine, which to be praised needs only a single trial. The purifying power of these excellent Pills strongly recommends them to the use of families in which any constitutional weakness or deleterious taint exists. Holloway's medicine has the most renovating effect when the system has become debilitated by dissipation, over-indulgence, or long-continued illness. The Pills, acting gently as alteratives, aperients, and tonics, impart strength and energy to the wholft body.
