From his very childhood he had rowing and a
romantic fancy, and strangely set upon
performing some brave and adventurous achievement.
Accordingly, being about thirteen years of age. al
school, he sold his satchcl and books, and all he
had, to raise money to go secretly beyond the sea-
But his father dying Just AZ that time, he was
stopped for the presents and fell into the hands Of his
guardians, more intent upon improving his estate
than him. However, ut fifteen, in the year 500 he
was bound TO merchant at Lynne, The most consid-
cradle trader IN those parts But because he would
not send him immediately TO sea- he found means in
the train Of Mr. Peregrne Berry, second son of tho
lord Willoughby, to pass into France Here, and in
the low countries he first learned the rudiments of
war, to which profession he led, by strong pro-
pensity Of genius.
He atterwa rds carried into Scotland, with delu-
sive hopes from Scottish gentleman, Of being cE
fectually recommended to king James. But soon
finding himself bafled IN bis expectations, he roturu

n consequence of the numerous frauds and imposi'

again induced to change the form OF my BOTTLES.

These bottles are much stro ger than those hereto

The increasing demand for this celebrated medicine
has enabled me to reduce the price to TWO Doi :
LARS per bottle, thus bringing IT within the reach OF
thcindigent.
Nv Panacea requires no encomium; IT'S astonishing
effects and wonderful operation have drawn, bJ'h from
Patients and Medical Practitioners OF the highest re-
specabil:ty the most unqualified approbation and es
tablisled forit a character which Ehvys pen, though
dipped in gall, can never tarnsh.
The false reports concerning this valuable medicine
which have been so diligently circulated by certain
Ply sicans, have their origin either IN ENVY he
mischievous effects ofthe SPURIOUS INVITATIONS.
The Proprietor pledges himself to the Public, and
gives them the solemn assurances that tins medl
cine contains neither mercury nor any other
drug.
The Public are cautioned not to purchase my Pana-
cea excert from myself m, accredited agents, per-
sons of known responsibility, and all those will consc
crlently be without excuse, who shall purchase from

This medicine had been used for more than 7 years
before effort made t. initiate it; but the great
demand for it, and its wonderful success have Undue ed
agreat number ofpeIsons to initiate it in various ways
upwards of fifty different mixtures have been got
up in imitation of it. which IS convincing proof of
its being medicine of great value. Some selling
sarsaparia and other syrups, imposing them on the
ignorant for the Panscea others mixing the gen
inc medicine with moasses &c, making three bottles
out Of one, thus retaining some Of its virtues Others
are using the genuine Psnacea in their bottles to per
form cures, to obtain certificates to give their ow
reputation, &c. Some have resorted to perjury
deceive the public. These limitations and aduliera
tons have in many Instances, pro,rsced the suffer
ingsof patients in diseases where the genuine Swam's
Panaces would have proved instantly eaicacious.
therefore deem it duty owe the public to assure
them, that the composition of my Panacea is not
known wasi il communicated TO any other per.

other mixtures represented to be mine, are fraudulent
impositions. WM. SWAIN.
