I have by tbefe Plumbs cured a great many Children
of Whooping or Chin-Coughs, and Agues, which Dis
tempers are very common and troubkfome to Families,
anithe Want of tbefe Plumbs are the Ruin of Many
Children's Confitutions,
Tbefe Plumbs enrich and sweeten the whole Mass of
Blood, carry off all gross, corrupt and putrid Humours,
and create afrefb ana healthy Complexion in such as
are affeßed by any putrif Matters.
The Plumb is a great Dieuretick, cleaning the Reins
of Slime; it expels Wind, and is a sovereign Medicine
in the Cbolick and griping of the Guts. It allays and
carries off four Vapours which occasion many Disorders
in the Head. It opens all Obfiruaions in the Stomach,
Lungs, Liver, Reins and Bladder; causes a good Ap
petite and helps Digestion. It hath been found won
derfully fuccefiful to Jucb Persons as are going into
Chronical Difempers, as Aflbmas, Phtbijicks, Sbort
nefs of Breath, Dropsies and Yellow Jaundice. Now
I hope all impartial Persons are fatisfed, that the Me
dicine which works upon such Humours, will almost
teach any Diflemper, if not too far gone, face Corrup
tion and Putrefaaion are the Fore-runners of all Dis
eases; therefore no better Pbyfek can be taken for all
Ages, Sexes and Confitutions, from Infancy to an old
Age. Price Bs. Sold by HughGaine.

Incomparable Worm-destroying
SUGAR PLUMB S,
Necessary to be kept in all Families.
SO exceedingly valued by all People who have bad
of them in Croat-Britain and Ireland, jor their
tranfeendent Excellency in the defroying Worms of all
kinds both in the Bodies of Men, Women, and Children,
by not only breaking the Knots in the Duodenum or Gut
next the Stomach, but they pass through fe smallest
Engages of the Body, and purge away the ropy and
slimy Humours which are the cause of those pernicious
Fermin, and the Source of many other Disorders; they
are one of the best Purges in the whole World for gross
bodied Children that are apt to breed Worms, and have
large Bellies; their Operation is mild, fafe and plea
sant ; they wonderfully cleanse the Bowels of all ftiff
andclammy Humours which flop up the Parts and
prevent the Juice of Food being conveyed to the Liver
and made Blood, which is often the Case with Children,
and is attended with a bard Belly, finking Breath,
frequent Fevers, Rickets, and a Decay of Strength in
the lower parts: Likewise fettled Aches and Pains in
the Head, dwellings, old Sores, Scabs, Tetters, or
Breakings-Out, will be perfectly cur'd, andtbe Blood
and Skin refored to its original Purity, and Smootb
nefs ; they purge by Urine, and bring away the Gra
vel, and effectually cure all Obfruaions of the Urine,
or Ulcers in the Kidneys. They at onceftrike at the
true cause of the Scurvy, and entirely defroy it, at all
fcorbutick Humors and Effect, Root and Branch, so
as never, to return again, and what makes them more
commendable is, they are full as agreeable to both tafe
and fight, as Loaf Sugar;and in their Operation as
innocent as new Milk.
