results if persisted in for a reasonable length of time.

FOR A GENTLE APERIENT, OR LAXATIVE, take one or not more than two and
preferably in the morning, on an empty stomach.

FOR A GENTLE CATHARTIC, two or three are generally sufficient, if taken
in the morning, on an empty stomach.

FOR A VERY ACTIVE, SEARCHING CATHARTIC, four to six may be taken in the
morning, on an empty stomach.

FOR A CHILD OF TWO TO FOUR YEARS, one-half of a Pellet given in a little
sauce of some kind, or soft candy, will be sufficient for a laxative, or
one for a mild cathartic.

FOR A CHILD OF FOUR TO EIGHT YEARS, one for a laxative or two for a
cathartic will act nicely, if given on an empty stomach.

AS A DINNER PILL.--To promote digestion and increase the appetite, take
only one Pellet each day after dinner.

_To overcome the disagreeable effects of a too hearty meal_, take two
Pellets as soon as conscious of having overloaded the stomach.

IN ALL CHRONIC DISEASES, it is of the utmost importance that the bowels
be kept _regular_, yet thorough purgation should be avoided, as it tends
to debilitate the system. Small laxative doses of one or at most two
Pellets, taken daily and continued for a long time, is the plan that we
would recommend to produce the best results.

IN DROPSY, an occasional active cathartic dose of the Pellets of say 4
to 6, taken once in a week or ten days, will do good, if, in the
interval between these doses, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery be
taken to invigorate and regulate the system.

TO BREAK UP SUDDEN ATTACKS OF COLDS, FEVERS, AND INFLAMMATIONS.--It is
only in these sudden and severe attacks of _acute_ diseases that we
recommend the Pellets to be taken in active purgative doses, and in
these cases _only one_ large or cathartic dose of say 5 or 6 Pellets
should be taken.

In colds, fevers, and inflammatory attacks, warm sweating teas should be
taken freely, and hot foot baths, or a hot general bath, employed to
assist in equalizing the circulation of the blood and restoring the
equilibrium of the system.

SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION.--This combined treatment of an active dose of
Pellets, coupled with the use of a hot bath, foot bath, or, better
still, a hot sitz-bath, will bring on _menstruation_, when suppressed
from taking cold. In the latter case the effect will be insured if, in
addition to the use of the Pellets and baths, a full dose of Dr.
Pierce's Compound Extract of Smart-Weed, or Wate
