And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That if any inn-holder or tavern-keeper within this State, shall trust or credit any person or persons, other than travellers, more than or above the sum of ten shillings, lawful money of this State, for any sort of strong or spirituous liquors, or other tavern expenses, he, she or they, so trusting or crediting any person or persons as aforesaid, shall lose the debt, and be forever disabled of suing for or recovering the same, or any part thereof: and if any inn-holder or tavern-keeper shall sue for any such debt, above the sum of ten shillings, contrary to the true intent and meaning of this act, the person or persons sued, shall and may plead this act in bar, and if the plaintiff in such suit, shall become non-suit, or a verdict of judgment shall be given for the defendant, every such plaintiff shall pay double costs.
And be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That if any inn-holder or tavern-keeper, shall take or get from any person or persons, trusted as aforesaid, any note, bill, bond, or other security, for any sum above ten shillings, for any strong or spirituous liquors, by him or her sold, or drank in, or at his or her house, under pretence that it is for victuals, pipes, tobacco, or any other thing, whereby to evade this act, every such note, bill, bond, or other security, shall be void, and the defendant or defendants, may plead this act in bar to any action or suit to be brought thereon. And further, that every person who shall be convicted of an offence against this clause of this act, shall forfeit double the sum mentioned in, and intended to be secured by such note, bill, bond, or other security, to be recovered by action of debt, bill, plaint or information, with costs of suit, in any Court in this State, having cognizance thereof.
Provided always, and be it further enacted by the authority aforesaid, That nothing in this act contained, shall be construed or taken, to debar any inn-holder, or tavern-keeper, from taking, receiving, or recovering any sum or sums of money, which shall or may become due, and owing to him or her, from any person or per-

sons, who shall or may be lodgers, in his or her house, or from travellers, not residing in such city or town; any thing in this act contained, to the contrary, in any wise notwithstanding.

Dr. RYAN's incomparable Worm destroying SUGAR PLUMBS, Highly necessary to be kept in all Families. So exceedingly valued by all people who have had of them in Great-Britain and Ireland, for their transcendent excellency, in the destroying 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 the smallest passages of the body, and purge away thoseropy and slimy humors, which are the cause of those pernicious vermin, 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, safe and pleasant; they wonderfully cleanse the bowels, of all illst and clammy humors, which stop up the parts, and prevent the juice of food from being conveyed to the liver and made blood, which is often the case with children, and is attended with a hard belly, flinking breath, frequent fevers, rickets, and a decay of strength, in the lower parts; likewise settled aches and pains in the head, swellings, old sores, scabs, tatters, or breaking out, will be perfectly cured, and the blood and skin restored to its original purity and smoothness; they purge by urine, and bring away the gravel, and effectually cure all obstructions of the urine, or ulcers in the kidneys. They at once strike at the true cause of the scurvy, and entirely destroy it, and all scorbutic humors and effects, root and branch, so as never to return again; and what makes them more commendable is, they are full as agreeable to both taste and sight, as loaf sugar; and in their operation, as innocent as new milk. I have by these Plumbs, cured a great many children of whooping or chin-coughs and agues, which distempers are very common, and troublesome to families, and the want of these Plumbs are the ruin of many children's constitutions. These Plumbs enrich and sweeten the whole mass of blood, carry off all gross, corrupt, and putrid humors, and create a fresh and healthy complexion, in such as are affected in any putrid matter. The plumb is a great diuretick, cleansing the reins of slime; it expels wind, and is a sovereign medicine in the cholick and griping of the guts; it allays and carries off four vapors, which occasion many disorders in the head; it opens all obstructions in the stomach, lungs, liver, reins, and bladder, causes a good appetite, and helps digestion. It hath been found wonderfully successful to such persons as are going into chronicl distempers, as asthma, phthisicks, or shortness of breath, dropfies and yellow jaundice. Now I hope all impartial persons are satisfied that the medicine which works upon such humors, will almost reach any distemper, if not too far gone, since corruption and putrefaction are the forerunners of all diseases; therefore, no better physic can be taken for all ages, sexes and constitutions, from infancy to an old age. These plumbs are highly serviceable to the female sex, from the age of 14 to 20, and from 40 to 50. Each box contains one dozen of these Plumbs. Price Eight Shillings, with directions. Sold by H. GAIN E, at his Book-store and Printing-Office, in Hanover-Square, Diagnostick signs of Worms.
PALENESS in the face, itching of the nose, hollowness of the eyes, grating of the teeth when asleep, dulness, pains and heaviness in the head, a dry cough, itching in the fundament, white and thick urine, unquiet sleep, often starting, lost appetite, swelled belly, knawing and biting about the stomach, frightful dreams, extreme thirsts, the body decayed and lean, fits, often vomiting, flinking breath, &c. Directions for taking them. A child from one to two years may eat one plumb, from 2 to 4 one and a half, from 4 to 6 two, from 6 to 8 two and a half, from 8 to 12 three, from 12 to 15, and all above that age may eat four plumbs, one hour or two before up-rising, not to drink during that time, but afterwards drink warm tea, whey, or water gruel; in taking, the patient must stay 2 or 3 days betwixt each dose. In agues, the same quantity must be taken, 2, 3, or 4 hours before the fit comes on, and be repeated three times. In whooping or chin-coughs, give the quantity above-mentioned. March 6.
