THE REV. MR. BARCLAYis LIATENT ANTIBILI-
! OUS PILLS.
IT was a remark of the celebrated Dr. Buchan,
A uthor of the Domestic Medicine; that complaints of
the Stomach and Bowels are the prevailing Malady of. this
Country, which lay the foundation of the more formidable
and fati,il Diseases; that the person who could discover for
the relief and cure a safe arid infallible remedy would per.
form a most important service ti; society. That discovery
has now been made in the Patent Antibilious Pills of the
Rev. William Barclay, the extensive sale of which, andthe high estimation in which they are deservedly held,
has
considerably lessened the number of these complaints; and
bids fair, in a short time, to be the means of entirely. eradi-
cating them. These Pills have a quick and safe operation,
they ad powerfully and specifically on the Bile, and thus
remove the numerous disoroers connected with it, Sick
Head-Aches, Flatulence, Liver Complaints, jaundice, Ner.
vous Disorders front Indigestion, &c. They' are the most
valuable Family Medicine hitherto offered to the Public,
and the Proprietor is supported by the most respectable
evidence of the:first characters of the. Nobility and others,-
that they have never been administered many person without
giving, certain and speedy relief, and in the:end completing a
Cure.

This valuable Medicine, having been used with success,
is recommended by the following distinguished Personages:
