Dyspepsia.
mr.. MEAD'S PILLS have been prove

nR. MEAD'S PILLS have been proved BY that in.
~ fallible test of truth, experience, the most ef
fectual medicine offered in any country, for the
cure ofal those deranged states of the digestive or
gans, denominated DYSPEPSIA, or INDIGESTION,
which fra ently makes its appearance nIthe most com
plicated such as loss of appetite sickness at the
stomach, and sometimes vomiting belching up of wa
ter, which is sometimes tasteless, but most commonly
sour knawing in the stomach, heartburn costiveness
paleness of the countenance anguor lowness of the
spirits, paptation of the heart vertigo and disturbed
sleep. The number ofthese symptoms variesin differ.
ent patients, by some being felt only in parts while
others, have additional ones, equally disagreeable
such as severe pains in the head and breast atuence
emacation, wasting ofthe whole body, with great
weakness particularly of the legs. These pills will
most eHectualy remove all sourness of the stomach,
not merely by neutrazing the acid but by correcting
that morbid state of the secretons which give rise to
it; and at the same time will restore to the debtated
organs of digestion that tone and vgor which is abso
lutey necessary to the well being Of the animal econ
omy The best proof of their efficacy is, that they
are prescribed by many of the first physicians and us
ed by the most intelligent families throughout the u
MON.
The above valuable remedy is sold by E. sTABLRR
& SON, Alexandria, who are agents for the Manufac
turer; by NJ Jewet, Washington City, and by most of
the Druggists throughout the United States sold also
wholesale, by O. & W. Hull, Druggists, New York.

his arm 10 the opposite side To help himself,
when they are several idle attendants, or
persons nearer to the object Of his wishes,
who could better help him. this is bad
habit which will mend itself, for at some
time the bar Of the chair on which he
stands will break, and stretch him Ike a
