I- BRISCOE begs leave to return most sincere thanks to
IP • his numerous Friends, for their very liberal support,
and to inform them that the state of his health at present,
and for some time past, (arising from the great exertions,
both mental and bodily, required for conducting a business
so extensivei) demands that he should relinquish business
altigether or admit a Partner to take a share of the labour.
In order to make way for such arrangement as the latter,
it would be necessary to CLEAR OFF a considerable por-
tion of the STOCK ; he has therefore made such a RE-
DUCTION IN PRICES as he feels confident will speedily
enable him to accomplish so desirable an object. The
LINEN DRAPERY, SILK MERCERY, HOSIERY,
HABERDASI4 ERY, and SHAWL ItilTocK, are now

MESSRS. HENRY & CO., SURGEONS,

AND SOI.k PROPRIETORS OF TUE
FRENCH MARONE PILLS,

FoR A CERTAIN DISEASE,
Prepared and Sold by them only at their Residence,
105, DUK E-STREET, LIVERPOOL,
In Boxes at 2s. 9,1., 'ls. 6d., and Ils. each ; of whom may be
had gratis with each package, their Treatise, containing
plain and practical observations on the above complaint,
being hints worth knowing by those who are or have been
sufferers from this dreadful and devastating malady.
rIiIIIS cruel Disease, which has destroyed so many thou-
sands, is now so well known that a recital of its effects
is quite unnecessary. The never-failing efficacy of these
invaluable Pills fur its speedy cure, has determined the Pro-
prietors to publish their great utility. After the thousands of
desperate cases which they have permanently relieved, when
the most eminent Doctors in the kingdom have pronounced
the sufferers incurable, fully warrant the Proprietors in sta-
ting that they have no equal in expedition of relief and cer-
tainty of effecting a radical cure.
At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist. it
will be well to have recourse to the French Marone Pills;
for when taken before the disease has made its appearance,
they act as a certain preventive, removing the complaint
effectually and secretly. The deplorable state in which
many persons have been when visiting the Proprietors (front
the use of mercury), renders it imperatively necessary to
caution the public against that dangerous mineral when in-
judiciously administered.
Messrs. 11- & Co., having made the above complaint their
principal study for many years, will attend daily at their
residence, No. 105, Duke•stieet, from eight in the morning
till ten at night, and on Sundays from nine till two, where
they give advice to all applicants taking those Pills, of any
other of their preparations, without a fee.
These Pills are particularly recommended to Captains of
Ships, as they will keep in all climates.
Letters (post-paid), in(!itidlnt.r a remittance, answered by
return of post, and Medicines punctually transmitted to any
address, either by initials or name.
Private Entrance in Ward's-terrace, Parr-street.
