THAT they bewa r c of rigging which is made of
Holland yarn; for it is m add in great quanti
ties and cxpoßd to falc, to the hint of the buyer.
It is o! such a bale quality, that it is not lufficient for
cables or rigging of any kind r it is fpnn and dressed
off in such a manner, as makes it difficult for the
buyer to know it from the belt tope. In order to
try its evil quality, let the buyer take a few yarns of
the fag end of the rope, and open thtm into hemp,
and if it prove to be short tow, you may take it for
granted robe Holland yarn; which is (pun of short
tow andrefufe of the hemp, that ismanufaSlured in

many other disorders. *They are one of the belt
purges in the whole world for groft-bodied ehildre®
that are apt to breed, worms, and have large heHiesi'
their operation is mild., lase, and pleaiant 3 they
wonderfully cfeanfe the bowels of all ibtf and clam
my humours which flop up the parts, and prevent
the juice of food from being conveyed <0 the liverand
made blocd, which is often the caie with cbillretj,
and is attended with a hard belly, stinking breath,
frequent fevers, tickets, aftd a decay of firengtb,
in the lower parts; likewise fettled aches and pains
in the head, fwellrngs, old lores, scabs, tetters, or
breaking out, will be perfectly cuied, and the blood
and skin restored to its original purity and fmooth
nets 3 they purge by urine, and bring away the gra
vel, andcifeftually cureall obflruftions of the urine*
or ulcers in the kidneys . They at once strike at th 6
true cause of the feurvy, and entirely destroy it, and
all fcorbnric humours and effefts, root and branch,
so as never to return again 3 and what makes them
more commendable is, they are full as agreeable
to both tatty and fight, as loaf fiigar ; and in theii
operation, as innocent as new milk.
I have by these plumbs cured a great many chil
dreh of a whoopir.gor chin-coughs, and agues, which
distempers aie very common andtroublefome to fa
milies, and the want oftbefe plumbs are the ruin of
many children’s c&nflitutions.
These plumbs enrich and fweecen the whole mass
of blood, carry oft' *ll gross, corrupt, and putrid hu
mours, and create a fresh and healthy complexion in
such as are affefted in any putrid matter.
The plumb is a great dmuietick, cleanfingthe reins
of slime 3 it Expels will'd, and is a fovercign medi
cine in checbolic and griping of the guts 5 it allays’
and curries off four vapours, which oecaiion many
disorders in the head 3 it opens all obftniftions in
the stomach, lupgs, liver, reins, and bladder, cau
ses a good appet-ce, and helps digefiion. It hush
been found wonderfully fuccelsful to filch perlons as
arc going into chronical distempers, as asthmas,

Cuisfied that the medicine which works upon Inch
humours, will almott reach any diftempcr, if nog
too far gone, since corruption and purrefadion are
the fore-runners of aU diseases; theiefoie, no better
physic can be taken for all ages, sexes, and qonftj
