' TO BE SOLD AS ABOVE,
Ryan's incomparable Worm destroying
SUGAR PLUMBS,
Necessary to be kept in ail Fern 1 es.
SO exceedingly valued by all p o;4e who have had
of them in Great Britain and Ireland, for their
tanfcendant excellency in the d&ofirg worms of all
kinds, both in the bodies of men, women and chil reo,
by not only breaking the knots of the Duodnue, or
gets next the stomach, but they pass through the Ira Jl
eft p&ffages of the body, ano purg^ away th.fe ropy,
and die, humours which are the c^ufe of t^fe perri
cious vermin, and the (ounce of many other diLadtrr:
they are one of the best purges in tae world for gro-s
bodied children that are apt to breed worms, and h we
large bellies ; their operation is mnd, fafc and pleaUct.;
they wonderfully cleanse the bowels of ill fbffnd
clammy hum ors, which flop up the par 's^d pi vent
the juice of food being conveyed to the liver and made
blood, which is often the case with children, and is at
tended with a hard belly, linking breath, frequent fe
vers, rickets, and a d cay hf ftrehgth in the Boxer pa; :s:
Likewise fettled head-achs and pains in the head, tvell
ings, old fores, scabs, tetters ct breakings on, v. A be
perfectly cured, and the blood and &n restored to its
original parity and smoothness; they purge by u.:n„
and bring away the gravel, and effectually cure all ob
ftru&ions of the urine or ulcers in the kidneys. They at
once flrike at the true cattle of th feurvy and entirely
de^rey it, and all scorbutic humours and rifi& , root
and branch, so as never to return agriu ; and what
makes thm more commendable is, they are full as
agreeable to b xhtafteand fight as loaf-fagar.
I have by these plumbs cur'd a great many children
of whooping or chin coughs and agues, which dUtemp
ers are very common and trouoletome to families, and
the want of these plumbs are the ruin of many chil
drew conftitutions^
These plumbs snrich and sweeten the whole mats of
blood, carry off all gross, corrupt and putrid humours,
and create a frefli end healthy complexion in such as are
affected by any putrid matter.
The plumb is a great diuretick, cleansing th^ reins of
florae; i expels wind, and is a sovereign medicine in
the cholicand griping of the guts. It alia) s ^nd carries
off four vapours which occafibn many diforiders in the
head. It opens all obftruaions in the ftomacb, lungs,
liver, reins and bladder; causes a good appetite and
helps digestion. It hath been found wonderfully fuccef
ful to such persons as are going into chronic deuempers,
as aftemas, phtidfics, or (hortnefs of breath, dropsies
and yellow jaundice. Now I hope ajl impartial perlons
are fatisfied ; that the medicine which works upon such
humours, will almost reach any distemper, if not too far
gone, since corruption and putrefaction are theforerun
ners of all defeafes; therefore ro better ph) fit can be
taken for all ages, sexes and constitutions, from infan
cy to 01l a;e. These plumbs are highly ferViceable to
the female lex, from the age of fourteen to twenty
years, and from forty to fifty. Each box containing
one dozen of these plumbs, with printed dir &icns.
Diognoftic Signs of Worms.
Paleness in the face, itching of the note, holh wnefs
of the eyes, grating of the teeth when aflep, dulhras,

sleep, often starting, loft appetite, (welled belly, knaw
ing and biting about the stomach, frightful dreams, ex
treme thirsts, the body decayed and lean, fits, often vo
miting, stinking breath, &c.
Direaions for taking them.
