H3HS's .aSTIBILIOUS PILLS

THIS Medicine has been attended
with a degree OF success highly grateful
TO the inventors feelings in severa! parts
of the West Indies and in the Southern
and Middle States. particularly in New
York Philadelphia Baltimore Petersburg
Richmond Norfolk Edenton Wilming-
ton Charleston and Savannah. The
testimony of number OF persons in each

have reason to believe that timely use
of this salutary remedy has under Provi-
dence preserved their lives when in
the most alarming circumstances.
Facts Of this conclusive nature speak
more in favour of a medicine than CO.
lumns of pompsus eulOsy founded on
mere assertion.
1t is not indeed presumptuously pro-
posed as an iniallib!e cure, butthe lnven-
Tor has every possible reason that can re-
suit from extensive experience Tor be-
leying that a dose of these Pills til ken
once IN every two weeks during the pre-
yalence Of our bilious fevers. will prove
an intallible preventative; and further,
that in the earlier stages OF those diseases
their use will very generally succeed in
restoring health, aud frequently IN cases
esteemed desperate and beyond the pow
er of common remedies.
The operation Of these pills is perfectly
mild. 90 as to be used with safety by per-
sons in every situation and of every age.
They are exce,lently adapted to carry
or superIluous bile and prevent its NOR
bid secretions-to restore and amend the
appetite-to produce a free perspiration
and thereby prevent colds which are Of
ten of fatal consequences. A dose never
fails te remove cold il taken on It's tlrSt
appearance they are celebrated for re-
moying habitual costiveness-sickness at
the stomach and severe head-ache-and
ought to be taken by all persons Oh a

They have been found remarkably ELI
