HEALTH, ONE OF THE GREATEST BLESSINGS,
but which is too often neglected, or insufficiently appre-
ciated, will be best preserved or restored by the use of that
eminent Physician's Pills, Dr. Sydenham, who was justly
styled the Father of Modern Medicine.
DR. SYDENHAM'S ANTIBILIOUS APERIENT,
or FAMILY PILL OF HEALTH, entirely vegetable ; a
safe and efficacious Medicine. Indigestion, Habitual Cos-
tiveness, Loss of Appetite, Sick Head-Ache, Flatulencies,
Gout, Spasms, Heartburn, &c. are more speedily and effec-
tually removed than could be credited, but from experience
in the use or these valuable Pills. Mild, yet effectual in
their operation, being free from calomel, they require no
confinement or alteration in diet : moderate exercise in-
creases their good effects. Two or three pills may be taken
at any time when costive or uneasy in the stomach or bowels,
and SYDENHAM'S PILLS should be taken by persons of all
ages, when in this state, as they assist digestion, correct ex-
cesses of the table, give a healthy action to the stomach, re-
move all the complaints to which the digestive organs are
subject, and will lead to health and a cheerful old age. The
most delicate females, the young and the aged, prefer them
to most other aperients, as they are beneficial to their general
health, improve their appearance, and by a VEGETABLE
Preparation, at once mild, safe, and effectual.
The following is an extract from the opinion of an eminent
Physician practising extensively at Bristol and Clifton :
_ " Bristol, Park-street, May 29th, 1841.

" I have examined the composition of Dr. Sydenham's
Pills, and consider them as a very valuable remedy in all
Complaints to which the Digestive Organs are subject, espe-
cially Bilious Affections, and an innumerable variety of
diseases which are the consequence of the irregular and im-
perfect action of the organs of digestion.
" There is not a possession so enviable, nor a gift so va-
luable, as that of health ! We deplore its loss, which often,
worlds cannot restore to us ! Pain, trouble, misfortune, our
great and dreaded enemy, Death himself, stares us in the face
when health has departed, and yet there is not a blessing
under heaven so neglected, so trifled with, so abused, and so
wantonly sacrificed. It therefore would be of no small ad-
vantage to the Public to take Dr. Sydenham's Vegetable
Pills, as being beneficial in all complaints to which the human
race are subject, certain in their effects, and calculated to
restore and preserve health to tens of thousands of valuable
lives. " G. W., M.D., &c."
