THE POOR MAN'S PILL

Is an unrivalled antibilious medicine, introduced in 1763, recom-
mended by Abernethy and the Faculty. Its efficacy is remarkable
in those maladies which depend upon the purity of the blood and a
disordered condition of the stomach and bowels, inducing, as inevi-
table consequences, indigestion, head-ache, acidity upon the sto-
mach, heartburn, flatulency, nausea, lowness of spirits, and cuta-
neous eruptions. The most delicate female, when an aperient is
required, may at all times have recourse to them. To individuals
travelling, more particularly seafaring persons, when, from change
of habit and climate, the liver and bowels become inactive, they
will prove of invaluable service. The Medical Editor of the
" Weekly Chronicle," in speaking of this medicine, which has now
become the National Medium of Health, observes—" We have
ascertained, as far as chemical analysis can extend, the ingredients
constituting the preparation called the Poor Man's Pill, and find
that they contain all that is required for a safe and active aperient.
In such a character we believe it stands unrivalled, and there is no

(loubt that in a short time it must become the most popular of
Family Medicines."

In the following maladies, they have ieinnenterable I
been found to give immediate and extraordinary benefit :=4llO-
- 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,
hypochondria, indigestion, inflammations, jaundice, languor,
lethargy, liver complaints, low spirits, lumbago, nervous affections,
pains in the bones, palpitations, phlegm, piles, rheumatism, scro •
fula, sore throats, tremblings, tumours, ulcers of all kinds, and
worms of every kind.
TESTIMONIAL from HENRY HETHERINGTON, Book-
seller, 126, Strand, selected from many thousands forwarded to
Messrs. Hannay and Co., 63, Oxford-street, wholesale agents :
No. 126, Strand, Sept. 24, 1838.
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 en this subject. I feel disinclined, and consider it
unjust to recommend others to take a medicine that I am 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
ray 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,
generally speaking, the less medicine a person takes the better.
Tose who enjoy tolerable health, however, sometimes require a
little opening medicine, and as it is well known that headaches and
litany 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. Having adopted the Poor Man's
Pill in my own family, I can unhesitatingly affirm that I hare 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.

DR. JOHN ARMSTRONG'S LIVER PILLS.
" I care not how I am physicked, so it be not by the adventure of a
quack, hut advice of a physician, who I am sure will prescribe no more
for me than nay consist with my safety, and need d,:th require."— Old
Divine.
THESE LIVER PILLS have now established
themselves as a favourite FAMILY APERIENT, as a
safe and sure Destroyer of WORMS in Children, as a most effec-
tual remedy for an INACTIVE LIVER, and, consequently, as
an ANTI-BILIOUS. obstinate Sores heal, and the STONE
and GRAVEL are invariably cured under a course of them. The
occasional use of these Pills, instead of any ether Aperient, ren-
ders the Complexion beautifully clear, and free from Eruptions.
Many Droplical persons are now never without' these Pills. Taken
a few nights before a Voyage, they prevent Sea-sickness. They
contain no Aloes, Gamboge, or Colocynth ; occasioning no Piles,
nor any pain in their operation.

of an agreement duly stamped and executed, bearing date October
7, 1837, liable to a penalty of 5001. if he or they ever divulge the
secret of the Prescription, or again prepare the Pills, or sell any

MINERAL SUCCEDANEUM
FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH,
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED,
AND LOSS OF TEETH SUPPLIED.

Monsieur M ALLAN Surgeon Dentist, 9, ad Moon-street,
continues to restore DECAYED TEETH with his MINERAL SUC-
CEDANEUM, (of which he is the Sole INVENTOR and I'SES.
p 6 -without pain, Iwo, or pressure, and FASTEN4.I4OOSE TEETH,
whether arising from age, neglect, disease of the Gums, the are of
Calomel, or any other cause. He has also discovered a NEW COM.
POSI I'ION for ARTIFICIAL TEETH. A peculiar advantage attending
Teeth made from this SUBSTANCE is, that they are totally imper-
vious to acids. ARTIFICIAL TEETH have hitherto been found
objectionable by INVALIDS taking MEDICINES which have a ten-
dency to DISCOLOUR them, and by persons of bilious habits. Mons.
M has been successful in obviating these objections by his NEW DIS-
COVERY, and he can fix the above without extracting the STUMPS,
or causing any incumbrance, and even on GUMS of the most tender
nature, protecting the adjoining Teeth, however loom No WIRES or
LIGATURES are used, and they MATCH the ORIGINAL TEETH
in point of Shape and Colour. GUARANTEED for MASTICATION
and ARTICULATION, In consequence of his improvements in the
mechanical department of Dentistry, he is enabled to reduce his charges
