A 8 family medicine, mild and gentle purga
IA tive, and purifier of the blood. The genera
use of these celebrated pills throughout the United
States Tor these forty years past and the strong rec
of our fellow-ctizens, places them in much NOR
elevated situation in public estimation, than an,
other remedy which has heretofore been introduced
The following are among the many diseases 70
which DIR. Dyott's celebrated pills are 30 deserved,
distinguished for curing. By their commencing
they prevent and cure the bilious fever chills, O.

puritcs, they restore the loss Of appetite, remov,
fatulency, the headache, habitual costiveness

very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and govt
lumbago or pains in the back.

effects whether proceeding from constitutional all
ment, or from indiscreet intemperance

great advantage in curing the dyspepsia or indges
ton, bronchitis, liver complaint, &c.
They are an infallible medicine for female conf
plants generally, and especially for removing those
distractions which are the source of their ailments
at certain periods; they possess the eminent advan
tage over most other purgatives, that, while they
operate gently, they produce neither cosiveness de
