nEcKWITH,s ANTLpYsPEPTIC PILLS

DECKWITH'S ANTI-DYSPEPTlC PILLS
Id have been most successfully employed in almost
every variety of functional disorder of the stomach,
bowels, liver and spleen; such as heartburn, acid
quotations, nausea, hcadacne, pain ana dis'eosion
of the stomach and bowels, ncipicnt diarrhea, col
ic, jaundlce hatuency habitua costveness, loss OF
annette sick headache, seasickness, &c, &c. They
are safe and comfortable aperient for females du-
ring pregnancy and subsequent conhdemen relieving
sickness the stomach, headache, heartburn and
nv Of the incidental nervous affections. Literary men,
students, and most other persons of sedcntary hab-
it's find them very convenient. Those who indulge
too freely in the pleasures of the table find speedy
relief from the sense of oppression and distcnsion
which follow, by taking the pills. As dinner pill,
they are invaluable. Those who are drinking MN
eral waters, and particularly those from southern
climates, ague and fever districts, will find them
valuable adjunct. Those who are exposed to the
vicissitudes of weather on voyages journeys,
take them at all times with perfect safety. In full
doses they are highly eficacious and safe anti
bilious medicine They seldom or never produce
sickness at the stomach or gripping.
There have been many limitations and worthless
counereits of these pills put in circulation by
principled and ignorant pcrsons-the directions,
Wrappers &C., of the genuine pills so closely and
accurately copied that the closest observer could not
without trial of their effects, distinguish between
them.
DIR. T. w. DYorr & Sons, of the Columbian COL
lege I3l N end street, Philadelphia having under
taken and been appointed by DIR. BeckWith sole
agents for the United States, for the sale of the
above pills. the public informed that they can be
supplied with the genuine article in any quantity at
the same price as by the proprietor, by applying
above.
N. B. To guard against counterfeits, all the pills
