DEAFNESS.

1%/FRS. GARDNER, AURIST, from London, Edinburgh,
and Dublin, has the honour of announcing her return
to Liverpool on her Sixth Annual Visit, and may be con-
sulted on all DISEASES of the EAR, at No. 5, GREAT
GEORGE-STREET, until the 23d of May.
The success which has attended her peculiar method of
treating the various species of Deafness having been demon-
strated in several thousand cases during the last twelve years,
in most of the principal cities in the United Kingdom, and
on the Continent ; and its innocence and efficacy having ob-
tained her both the confidence of the Public and the patron-
age of the Faculty, any further comment on her part is un-
- CI.. CPPt i however. hpr ijmnrpec nnthe
cate an organ as the tar; and as scarcely any two cases re-
quire the same mode of treatment, it is obvious that any
advertised general remedy indiscriminately made use of,
(without paying attention to the age and constitution of the
patient, and also the cause from whence the disease has ori-
ginated,) may do more harm than good, and frequently con-
vert the most simple affection to an inveterate and incurable
malady, such as total Deafness, Palsy of the Auditory Nerve,
destruction of the Tympanum or Drum, Inflammation of the
Brain, and even Madness or Insanity.
N.B.—The late Dr. Gardner's Treatise on the Anatomy,
Physiology, and Diseases of the Ear, may be obtained at her
residence as above.

In all cases a candid and impartial opinion may be relied
on, and in those decidedly beyond the reach of art, no fee is
expected if consulted personally.
Consultutions frBna the country, post-paid, and including

DR. W. EVANS' AMERICAN HERB PILLS.
HE very rapid sale of this invaluable Medicine, since
its recent introduction here, more than realises the most
sanguine anticipations of its Proprietor. No better proof of
the great virtues of the American Herb Pills could be given,
than this ready appreciation on the part of the afflicted.—
Never since Medicine became .a science was there a happier
discovery than that of the composition of this invaluable
Remedy,_

DR. W. EVANS having proved, by the most thoroughly
extended individual and collective experience; that these Pills
are firmly based on the immutable laws oPNature, deems it
an imperative duty to bring them before the Public.
The great principles on which this Medicine is established,
are to supersede the indiscriminate use of the Lancet, and of
those violent and dangerous minerals which have caused such
great mortality, and to prevent the frequent recourse to the
many deleterious purgatives compounded and put forth by
ignorant pretenders.
THE AMERICAN HERB PILLS, having stood the test of
the most thoroughly extended experience, are confidently re-
commended as decidedly superior to any combination of
Medicine ever offered to the Public.
These Pills are a mild Aperient, perfectly safe, certain, and
pleasant in their operation, and being wholly composed of
HERBS that harmonise admirably with the human constitu-
tion, they are perfectly salutary under any circumstances.
In all cases in which functional derangements of the Liver,
the Stomach and Bowels are involved, and also in all Impu-
rities of the Blood, this Medicine possesses curative powers
of surpassing efficacy ; Costiveness, Dyspepsia and Bilious
Complaints, so frequently aggravated by other Medicines,
are easily cured by a judicious administration of this. A
proper perseverance in the use of these invaluable Pills will
effectually relieve the distressed victims of Gout and Rheu-
matism, break up the tendency to a recurrence of the malady
and establish the health of the patient. These Pills are also
highly efficacious in all cases of Lowness of Spirits, Nervous
Irritability and Weakness, Loss of Appetite, Flatulency,
Heartburn, General Debility, Hysteria, Head-ache, Asthma,
and Spasmgdic Affections.
One of die most dangerous epochs to Females is at the
change of life ; they then require a remedy that will invigo-
rate and equalise the circulation, so that they may withstand
the shock. That Medicine is Dr. Evans' American Herb
Pills. Those who have the care and education of Females
should never be without them. The HERBS of which they
are composed exert a specific action upon the Heart and
arterial system, quickening and equalising the
,circulation
through all the vessels, whether of the skin, the parts situated
internally, or the extremities : and as the secretions of the
body are drawn from the blood, there is a consequent in-
crease of every secretion and a quickened action of the ab-
sorbent and exhalent or discharging vessels. Any morbid
action that may have taken place is corrected, and all obstruc-
tions removed, the blood is purified, and the body resumes a
healthful state. Perseverance in the use of these Pills will
undoubtedly effect a cure in all cases that have been found
discouragingly obstinate.
The great number of persons afflicted with Dyspepsia,
Liver or Bilious Complaints, are to be found among care-
worn speculators, stock-brokers, and ardent students ; or
among those whose nervous system has, by injudicious edu-
cation, been too greatly developed and rendered morbidly
excitable. There can be no doubt that sedentary habits con-
cur with mental excitement in producing these complaints.
Lowness of spirits is a certain state of mind, accompanied
by indigestion, wherein the greatest evils are apprehended
upon the slightest grounds, and the worst consequences
imagined. Ancient medical writers supposed this disease to
be confined to those particular regions of the abdomen, tech-
nically called hypochondria, which are situated on the right
or left side of that cavity, whence comes the name hypochon-
driasis.

The common corporeal symptoms are, flatulency in the
stomach or bowels, acrid eructations, costiveness, spasmodic
pains, giddiness, dimness of sight, palpitations, and often
an utter inability of fixing the attentroL upon any subject of
importance, or engaging in any thing that demands vigour
or courage. Also languidness—the mine becames irritable,
thoughtful, desponding, melancholy, and dejected, accom-
panied with a total derangement of the nervous system. The
mental feelings and peculiar train of ideas that haunt the
imagination and overwhelm the judgment, exhibit an infinite
diversity. The wisest and best of men are as open to this
affliction as the weakest.

An habitual moderate use of the American Herb Pills, in
conjunction with moderate exercise and relaxation, will ef-
fectually accomplish a cure. The virtues of these Pills are
peculiarly such that they may be taken without occasioning
sickness, nausea, or any of those disagreeable sensations at-
tending the operation of other medicines.
