DR.. MEAD'S ANTI-DYSPECTIC, or STO
MACH PILLS

VHyHE only medicine ever yet offered to the
j. public, from which a radical and perma.
nent cure can be obtained Of all those chronic
states of arrangement of the digestive organs
constituting that complicated disease, termed
Dyspepsia.
The duty which the proprietor owes to soci-
ETY., has induced him to adopt this mode of cir
culation, in order to give it a greater range OF
publicity, that it may thereby become more ex.
tensivey useful than it could possibly be, were
it confined within the private practice of any
Individual whatever. The diseases consequent
on morbid state Of the stomach and bowels.
are numerous, complicated, and for the most
part very difficult of cure.
The proprietor of these Pills is happy in hay
ing it in his power to offer to all those who are
afflicted with the above complaint, medicine
in which the most unlimited confidence may be
placed, and, for simplicity Of composition may
be given to children and patients of the most
delicate habit. In every CHRONIC case ofStomach
complaint, where the disease does not depend
on schirrus, or cancerous state of that organ,
Tin which case no medicine whatever can do
any good,) these pills will effect certain and
speedy cure, after the stomach Of the patienhas
been cloyed with magnesia and chalk, and
drenched with all the bitter potions that art
could invent, to no purpose. They will most
effectually remove all sournesS of the stomach
not merely by neutralzing the acid, but by cor.
recting that morbid state of the secretionS which
gives rise to it; and at the same time that they
are giving tone to the organs of Digestion they
will renovate and give new life and vgor TO the
whole system. GEO. SMITH, Proprietor
