vVNHE unparalleled reputation which Peters's Pills hive
L acquired as II Hcdicai Restorative, is the most unques-
honabie proof that can be given, of their immense importance
to the afflicted, in almost every class ofdiseases. The num-
Der OF letters received from Patients recovered through their
means, is really prodigious, and the complaints which they
nave cured are almost as varied as they are numerous. But
fetal than in others and among those may be named the too
often fatal complaints of the stomach and bowels, such as
Chohc, Fhat"icnce and Indigestion, for which they arc no,
only a certain, but an Immediate cure.
1t Is well known that from the dsarrangement of tho
stomach and bowels, arises nine -tenths of all the maladies OF
adult and declining life that this is the foundation Of
haAdency, Spasmodic pains, indigestion, loss Of appetite &c.
and that those in their turn give birth To Dropsy, Liper Com
PtaiA, Consumption and habitaai ionness Of spirits there
lore Peters Pills being the very best medicine which has
ever been discovered for the inciplent diseases of the intes-
tines, are necessarily the surest prcventatiyes of thosc dread
full, and also general disorders which embitter mature life
and drag so many millions TO untimely graves.
In speaking thus, DIR. Peters arrogateS nothing 10 himself
that has not been conceded by the public. He is no needy
quack or unknown speculator, who comes before the world
ms his own herald and witness; but is placed in u RESPONSE
billy of situation by the patronage which he has enjoyed for
years, aud is increasing to an extent Unprecedented in the
annals of medicine, that makes him careful to assert moth
ing which is not borne out by the most i~nfalliblc proof. and
hence he does not fear To be put to the test in any thing which
he has promised respecting his Pills.
Dr. Peters is most happy to be able 10 state on the au-
lhorty off great number ofregu'dr Physicians, that wherevar
his vegetable Pills have been introduced, they have almost
superseded the adoption OF mercurial experiments, for their
peculiar faculty in swectening the blood, and stimulating it to
expel all noxious juices. and giving strength and tone to tho
nerves, prevents disease from acquiring that strength which
must be got under, if at all, by dangerous remedies.
