reeuea you to publih the following Gales.
A young man in my family, Who ba5read DR..

delcrihed by the Do6lor, as indicating the pre-.
fence oil worms in the human fomaeh intef.

whatever, try the doSior's remedy.
He accordingly procured box oil the Lozen-
ges. Lat evening he took oi the yellow, and
this morning he took an equal number oil the
brown kind. They did not, as he Jays. operaie
hatshly, except one fool, when he ieit eonlde-
rsbse gripping, and when ,here came from hiir
worm, perfectly white, about ayard Ia length, as
broad as his lt,le finger, ana having a,.osber of
joints about an inch ia Of an: inch diitsn,
from each other.
Beldes this worm, he fays there came from hiIa
eou6derable number OF fat worms about "A of
an inch IN length, and nearly che fame in breadth

of his taking the medicine, thrown it and the o.
ther worms into the neceHarN no: thinking it of
coniequcnce to take Care oil them. The girl, how.
ever, and another fcrvani eoneurs with ham rea
fpe6tipg the worms which appeared in the vefiel.
and the tape worm, they fay, was alive, 10 lar as
to have motion, after il came irom him.
