Some ads from the March 6, 1869 edition of The Quincy Whig.

Judson's Mountain Herb Pills
"Tis true, `tis pity, pity `tis true," that mankind will pass by unheeded the warning symptoms of disease and neglect the remedies to restore health, until disease has so far advanced that it is often impossible to obtain relief. We have been shown the formula of Judson's Mountain Herb Pills, and believe them to be the best and simplest of medicines for Billious disorders, Liver Complaints, Female Irregularities, &c. They are prepared with great caution, and will save many a doctor's bill if used in time. As an universal family medicine they are unsurpassed. Give the Mountain Herb Pills a fair trial and we warrant you will never be without them. Sold by all dealers.
