DIXON'S CELEBRATED ANTIBILRAJS PiLLS.
'THESE Pills have long obtained a just celebrity
-a• in the private practice of the Proprietor, Mr. Diann, Apothe-
cary, and from their great success in many obstinate bilious Disor-
ders, on numerous patients of distinct ion and others,particularly the
Duke of Bedford, Sir George Warren, Sir Gregory Page Turner,
the Dowager Lady Say and Sele, the Viscountess Bulkeley, &c.
&c. he was persuaded to offer them to the under the appro-
bation and sanction-of their name.
The following is a proof of their efficacy :
" Deal Castle, Haverford West, South Wales, Feb. 24,1803.
" Captain Lloyd presents his compliments to Mr. Dixon: al-
though nut personally acquainted with him ; would take it as a fa-
vour, if he vetuld send him four or five boxes of his Pills as soon
as he possibly can. Mrs. I.loyd, who has always used the Medi-
cine, is now pregnant, and very unwell ; for the great service they
have been to Mrs. Lloyd, as well as to Col. Bishop and all his fa-
mily, Capt. Lloyd feels it his duty to recommend the pills where-
ever be goes ; he really thinks if Mr. Dixon would appoint some
persons as venders in this county, it would be a benefit to the
community."
'Elw Pills are found to be an incomparable remedy for restoring
the tone of the stomach, for curing indigestion, for preventing
crudities, and their consequent disagreeable eructations and flatu-
lencies. They prevent habiu'al and temporary costiveness, sick
head-aches, and heart-burn, which is occasioned by pregnancy,
and a debilitated stomach, whether arising from the acrimony of
the redundanbile, intemperate diet, or chinking to excess.
Sold wholesale and retail at Mr. Butler's, No. 4, Cheapside,
corner of Paternoster-row, London; and retail by most country
Medicine Venders, in boxes at 2s. 9d. and Pls. each.

FOR FEVERS, COLDS, INFLUEN /AS, MEASLES, Ike. I
DR. JAMES'S POWDER-
THIS very exalted and extraordinary Medicine is
allowed to he superior to all others in the complaints above-
mentioned. It should .lat given on the first attack, or as soon as
heat, head ach, and uneasiness prevail ; when it will either remove ,
the disorder, if a cold or incipient fever, in a short time ; or other-
wise it will prepare and dispose the dy favourably ;as in the
measles, for the eruption which is to'follow ; and in this case it
will tend to alleviate the cough, which often proves so obstinate
and injurious to the constitution. It is equally efficacious in all
other informatory distempers.
But to obviate the impositions attempted by persons formerly
in Dr. James's service, who pretend to have been his chemical
ojerators invreparing his Powder, the public are in possession of
the ssongest evidence—the solemn deposition of the Doctor him-
self, in an affidavit which he left in the hands of his Executors,
and which they published in the year 1577, soon after his decease.
In this he declares, " That the servants he employed In the pre-
paration of his Powder had little more to doin it than to pound
the ingredients, and attend to the fires under his direction—
that the rest of the process had always been performed by him-
self ; and that he never admitted any person to be present at such
process bet his son Robert Harcourt James and Mr. Newbery."
The genuine Powder is sold only by F. Newbery and Sons,
N 0.45, in St. Paul's Church-yard, four doors (Yom the corner of
Cheapside, and at Dr. James's late house, in Bruton-street, Lon-
don, in Packets, price 2s. 9d. each ; or in Bottle's, containing I?.
P.sckets, as made up for the Army and Navy, price 11. 4s. includ-
. Itg the duty. As the surest mark of authenticity, observe that the
w erds " F, Newbery, No. 45, St. Patti's," are engraved on the
Stamps.
