Necessary to be kept in all Families^
SO exceedingly valued by all people who have bad of them
in Great Britain and Ireland, for tbeir transcendent ex
cellency in the defraying worms of alt kinds both in tbe bodies
of men, women, and children*, by not only breaking tbe knots
in tbe Duodenum, or gutt next tbe flomacb, but they pass
through tbe fmallef pafeges cf the body, and purge away
thfp rap, and flmy humours which are the cause of those
pernicious vermin, and tbe source of many other disorders ;
they are ent of the best purges in the whole world fir gross
bodied children that are apt to . breed worms, and have large
bellies ; tbeir operation is mild, faje and pleafont ; they
wonderfully cleanse tbe bowels of all ftft and clammy hu
mours which flop up tbe parts, and prevent tire juice of
fad being conveyed to tbe liver and made blood, which ib
often tbe case with children, and is attended with a hard
belly, finking breath, frequent fevers, rickets, and a decay
of frergtb in tbe lower parts : Likewise fettled aches and
joins in tbe bead, fuellings, old fores, scabs, tetters, or
breakings out, will be perfeHly cured, and the blood and fk : n
reflated to its original purity and fmoothnef ; they purge b,
urine, and bring away she gravel, and yfta'ually cure mil
ebfru&ions of tbe urine, or ulcers in tbe kidneys. Ihe? at
once frike at tbe true cause of tbe fcu r vy and entirely defrec
it, and all fcorbr&k humours and effifts, root and branch,
so as never to return again ; and what makes them more com
mendable is, they are fellas agreeable to both tafe ard ^ght,
4, '"° a f f"Z aT i a "d '* tbeir operation as innocent as new milk.
I baky by these plumbs cured & great many children of
whooping, or chin-coughs, and agues, 'which difempers are
very common and troublesome to families, and tbe want of
these plumbs are tbe ruin of many childrens cerfitutiorm
These plumbs enrich and feuccten tbe whole nabs of blood,
carry off all gross, corrupt and putrid humours, and create
a f re /> and healthy complexion in such as are affected by any
putrid matter.
Tbe plumb is 4 great Dieuretick, ckarfng tbe reins of
fine ; it expels wind, and is a foreign medicine in tbe
ebebek and griping of tbe guts. It allays and carries off
four vapours which occafon many disorders in tbe bead. It
opens all obfrublions in tbe fomacb, lungs, liver, reins and
bladder ; causes a good appetite and helps dig flion. It bath
been found vjorderfolly fuccefsful to such per font as are
going into chronicle distempers, as afibmas, pbtbi/icks, or
feorinefs of breatb, dropfes and yellow jaundice, Now I
hope all impartial perform are fatfsfed, that tbe medicine
•which works upon fueb humours, will almost teach any
difempr, if not too far gone, finer corruption and putre
jaaiori are tbe # fore-runners of all difeays; therefore no
better plylick can betaken for all ages, sexes and constitu
tions, from infancy to an old age. These plumbs are fgbly
serviceable to tbe female sex, from tbe age of 14/4 20
years, and from 40 to §o> Each box contains one dozen of
these plumbs, price 8 fillings, with printed dircaions,----

more may be easily made. The land is as fit for grain as
