THIS Medicine has for ten years past
been attended with degree OF success
highly ereatful totthe invcnor's feelings IN
several parts of he West Indies, and the
southern Of the United States, particularly IN
Baltimore Petersburg, Richmond, Norfolk
Edenton. Wilmington, Charleston and Savan-
nah. The testimony of number OF persons
in each of the above placeshas been adduced'
WAC have reason to elieve that timely use
oftnis salutary remedy has, under Providence,
preserved their lives when In the most alarm
ing circumstances.
Facts ofthis conclusive nature, speak more
in favor of a medicine than columns OF PomP-
GUS eulogy founded on mere assertion couia
be.
II is not indeed presumptuously proposed
as an i,fallible cure, but the inventor mas
every possible reason that can result from
extensive experience, of believing that a dose
OF these pills, taken once every two weeks
during the prevalence OF our bilious lc'els,
will prove an infailible preventative; ana
further, that in the earlier stages OF those
diseases, their use will very generally succeed
in restoring health, and frequently In cases
esteemed desperate, and beyond the power Oh
common remedies,
The operation of these pills IS perfectly
mild-so as to be used with safety by persons
IN every situation, and OF every age.
They are cxcellently adapted to carry on
sunerauous bile, and to prevent Its morbid
.ecretions,; to restore and amendthe appetite,
nrodnce a free perspira.ion, and thereby pre-
vent colds, which are often OF fatal conse-
ouence,! dose never fails to remove cold,
