Is an un-ivalle,l antibdi,us medicine, introduced in. 1763, recom-
vaeoded by A be. netha and the Faculty. Its efficacy is rer.arkable
in those maladies which depend upon the purity of the blood and a

mach. heariborn, flatulency, nausea, loanit.s of spirits, and cuta-
neous eruptions. The most dcliewe ferntle, when an apeitient is
r quire& may at. all times have recourse to them. To individu .1s
travrlling, more particulatl) seafaring persons, when, from ch urge
of habit. and climate, the liver and bowels becoMe inaetive, they
will prove of invaluable service. .The Al died Editor of the
Weekly Chronicle," in speaking of this medicine, which has nine
become the National Medium of Ileaith, observes—" We have
ascertained, as far as chemical analysis can extend, the ingredients
constituting the preparation called the Poor Alan's Pill, and find
that they contain all that is required for a sale and active aperient.
In Fuel' a character we believe it stands tuirivalled, and there is no
d -übt that in a short time it must become the most pOpular of
Family Medicini s."
In the following maladies, they have in innutueratle instances
been found to give immediate and extraordinary benefit : kb-
scesses, ague, asthmas, bilious complaints, blotches on the skin,
boils, bowel complaints, constipation of bowels, consumptions,
convulsions, cramps, debility, dysentery, erysipelas, faintings, gid-
diness, glandular swellings, gout, headache, heartburn, hoarseness,

To the Proprietor of the Poor Man's Pill.
Sir,—Having considered your proposition that i should become
the agent for this district for the sale of the Poor Man's Pill,
I beg leave to state that lam willing to accept of the agency. It
is necessary, however, that I should candidly and explicitly avow
my. sentiments on this subject. I feel disinclined, and consider it
unjust to recommend others to take a medicine that. I em not pre-
pared to take myself, and I strongly deprecate puffing Patent Medi-
cines into notice as specifics for all sorts of complaints. I thought it
my duty to make myself experimentally acquainted with the virtues
of the Poor Man's Pills before I consented to sell them. This will
account for the delay in answering your application. I believe,
generallv speaking, the less medicine a person takes the better.
Those who enjoy tolerable health, however, sometimes require a
little opening medicine, and as it. is well known that headaches and
many other' inconveniences result from costiveness, there always will
be popular medicines in general use. to obviate the necessity and
expence of applying to a doctor. giving adopted the Poor Man's
Pill in my own family, I can unhesitatingly affirm that I have found
it a gentle and efficacious aperient, which, when taken, will afford
immediate relief ; - those who unfortunately are afflicted with .more
serious complaints, will doubtless speak of the Poor Man's Pill
more specifically ; but I can very sincerely bear testimony to their
excellence as the cheapest and most useful aperient. Under these
circumstances I am induced to recommend their universal adoption
and use in families, as the most valuable of domestic medicines. •
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
H. HETHERINGTON.
