It is a melancholy fact, that thou4iols fall victims to the
Venereal Disease awing to the unOtilfulness of illiterate
men, who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin
the constitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the
head, face, and body, dimness in the sight, noise in the ears,
deafness, obstinate gleets, and nodes on the shin bones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues, and a melancholy death puts a period to their dread-
ful sufferings.
PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2s.
9d. and lilt. per box, a certain, safe, and the most speedy re-
medy ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of
venereal diseases, gonorrhcea, gleets, strictures, semina-
weakness, in the loins, affections of the kidneys, gravel, lum-
bago, local debility, irritation of the bladder or urethra, and
other diseases of the urinary passages, frequently performing
a perfect cure in the short space of three days, by one small
pill for a dose, with ease, secrecy, and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually administered can be attested
by many thousands. Tne Specific Pills root out every parti-
cle of insidious poison, purifying in their progress the whole
mass of fluids. They not only remove the disease, but reno-
vate by their action the different functions of the body, ex-
pelling the grosser humours. and in a manner so mild and
imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their asto-
nishing and unequalled powers. They neither contain mer-
cury nor any other mineral, and may be taken without the
slightest suspicion of discovery. They reouim no restraint of
diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business, but effect a coin
plete cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any
period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well
to have recourse to the Specific Pills, for when taken before
the disease•has made its appearance it acts as a certain pre-
ventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their stu-
dies to those dreadful debilities arising from the too free and
indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only
occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, and entail
on its votaries all the enervating imbecilities of old age, but
weaken and destroy all the bodily senses, occasioning loss of
imagination, judgment, and memory, indifference and aver-
sion for all pleasures. In that distressing state of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful habits, exces-
sive drinking, or any other cause, by which the powers of
the constitution become enfeebled, they offer a firm, safe, and
speedy restorati n to sound and vigorous health.
PERRY'S VEGETABLE PILLS are well known for
the certain and effectual remedy of secondary symptoms,
venereal eruptions, pains in the bones, ulcerated sore throat,
diseased nose, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, scorbutic and
glandular affections, local and general debility, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, depression of spirits, and all
diseases arising from an impure state of the blood.

Drowsiness, and Pains in the Stomach latid Bowels, Indiges-

prevalent with the sex, Depression of Spirits, Dulness of

LAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS.—The
1.11 following letter is another proof of the great efficacy of
this Medicine, which has acquired throughout the United
Kingdom a higher degree of approbation and confidence
than perhaps ever was afforded to any public medicine.
The afficted with those tormenting diseases Gout, Rheu-
matic Gout, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatieti, pains in the
head and face, often mistaken for the tootlosthe. tic doloreux,
&c., will find front the use of this medicini that speedy relief
for which it is so celebrated. And while its efficacy is un-
paralleled in the foregoing diseases, it must be consolatory to
the afflicted with Gout to be assured that it possesses the
property of preventing the disease flying to the brain,
stomach, or other vital part.
An Effectual Cure of Rheumatism in Lincolnshire.
Forwarded by Mr. Jas. Drury, of Lincoln, near the Stonebow.
To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand, London.
LINCOLN, March '23, 1838.—Sir,-1 have the pleasure to
inform you of the following cure :—William Rawson, of
Normanby, near Spittal, Lincoln, has been suffering a long
time with Rheutrattistn, his left band and all up his arms
being useless from pain and swelling. Seeing Blair's Pills
advertised for Rheumatism, he applied to me to know if I
thought he would be relieved if he took the Pills. I recom-
mended him to try a box, he bought one, and came the next
week to say he felt much relieved, as the swelling of his hand
had gone nearly down : he however finished the box, and
bought a second, and came this day (March 23, 1838) to say
that he had taken the second box of Pills, and that he was
well, free from swelling, and able to use his hand as usual.
This. Sir, is not the only ease of much benefit I have been
made acquainted with, received by taking BLAIR'S GOUT
AND RHEUMATIC PILLS; every week fresh cases of
cure and relief come before my notice. But Wm. Rawson,
feeling much gratitude from the relief he has received, begs
to inform you of the same, and hopes others may be induced
to try such a valuable medicine for Rheumatism or Gout.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

MOXON'S LL
EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN ABRIENT,
Decidedly the most generally useful Medicine ever offered
to the Public.
IHE unrivalled efficacy of.the Magnes. n in all Disorders
of the Stomach and Bowels, has ob ined for it the uni-
form recommendation and approval of e Faculty.
This unique preparation unites all he active powers of
the most, approved saline purgatives, th the palatable qua-
lities of a glass of soda water. In torpid state of the liver
and bowels, bilious affections, cholera morbus, pains in the
head or disordered state of the stomach, nausea, and violent
sickness, it will be found a safe, speedy, and effectual remedy.
It giver, instantaneous- relief in the heartburn, is of great
service in preventing piles, fistula, and gout, and in allevia-
ting the febrile symptoms attendant on the latter affection.

free indulgence in the gratifications of the table, is speedily
removed by a tea-spoonful taken early in the morning.

May be had as above, that very popular and much-esteemed

preparation of SAiIittARILLA, the
CONCENTRATED COMPOUND DECOCTION,

(Prepared by B. Moxon, Chymist, Hull.)
" One table-spoonful added to a pint of pure water readily
forms a pint of the compound decoction ; and, in justice to
the preparers, we must say, appears to be more impregnated
with the virtues of the ingredients, than the decoction made
in the usual way."—See Gazette of Health and Practical Me-
dicine for Jauuary, 1829-
. In bottles at 4s. 6d., 125., and 225., the latter equivalent to
34 pints of the compound decoction of the London Pharma-
copoeia.

terfeit preparations, his Majesty's Honourable Commissioners
of Stamps granted Moxon and Smith (then Co-partners) to
hare " Moxon & Smith, Chymists, Hull," enaraved on the
