my feeble testimony in their favor.

By indigestion is meant loss of appetite and great
the whole system. Heartburn, an uneasy sensa-
ton Of heat about the pit of the stomach, which is
sometimes attended with nausea or sickness of the
stomach and vomiting, belchng up of water which is
generally sour, paeness of the countenance, costve-
ness, anguor, giddiness, Iowness of spirits, and
dsturned sleep, palpitation of the heart fatueDcy,
&c. &c.
These symptoms vary in different persons, some ex-
perencng more Of them, and some less, each in the
order and degree OF his particular case. These
Pills act as powerful onic neutralze the acid upon
the stamach, give strength to the debitated organs

stomach, and ultimately recover the health of the pa
tent. They do not contain mercury in any form, nor
do they sicken the stomach most purgatiye medi-
cines do, but perform the Office Of safe and mild
purgatiVe, and not surpassed by sny medicine
They are therefore particularly calculated for family
The inventor of these pills was one of the most
emnant practitioners ofmedicne IN The United States,
and used them successfully in his practice for many
years. They are not got up nostrum to deude
the credulous, but are recommended the basis Of
truth and experience. In order that they may become
extensively useful and within the reach of all, they

Of those who feel better TO drink. He IS
his imagination is disOrdered.-
He fancies bliss, and felicity, and plenty a.
abundance, which do not exist and he a.
wakens to misery, and poverty, and con-
tempt. Yet this is the exact feeling of all
those who feel better to drink ardent spir-
its. He who drinks but glass, has not the
same degree but precisely the same kind of
feeling with the one | have described.
And this is all-this is all that rum does
to make man feel better. If his family
are starving, he feels it not. He feels bet
ter. If his affairs are going to ruin, he is
not sensible to his condition. IfhiS home
is going to ruin, or is already plunged
into ruin, he is insensible to his condition.
If his house is on fire ,he sings the maniacs
song, and regards it not. He feels far bet
ter.
Andsncw need any more be said to per-
suade mankind to abandon the use of ar
dent spirits The appalling facts in rela-
ton to them, are known to all. Expert
ence and observation teach US, that they
are the source of ruin and wretchedness in
athousand shapes. They are the three
headed monster; they are the Gorgons
with their thousand snakes; their name is
Legion. And shall I yet find advocates
for their use? Will this enlightened COM
munity yet say they are useful and neces-
sary? Al! those who have used them, and
discontinued the use of them, say they are
totally unnecessary and useless. We see
that those who live without them, enjoy
more happiness and better health than those
who use them-that they enjoy longer
lives.
