particularly in Baltimore, Pcterfburg, 1 Rich,

adduced, who have reai'on to believe that a

Providence, preserved their lives when in the
melt alarming circvmllancea.
Fails of this conclnfive nature fpesk more in
favour o a medicine, than columns of pompous
eulogy, founded on mere aflV.tin, coukl do.
It !g nt indeed prefumptmwifly proposed as
an infallible cure, but the inventor has every
poflible reason, which can result from txrenfive
experience for bejieving that a dofet.f tliefe pills,
taken oqce every two week* during the preva
lence of our annual bilioas fevers, wiil pr. ?ve an
infallible preventative j and further, that in the j
earlier stages of those difeafta, theT use will
very generally succeed in restoring health and
frequently ia cases efleetned desperate and bey
ond the power of common remedies.
The operation of these pills is miid
and maybeyfed with Catety by persona in every
Gluation and of evtfy age.
V They are excellently adapted to csrry pff si.*

a free perfpiraticn and thereby prevent colds
which »re often of fatal conleq'Jtnce. A dole

appe-rance. They are celebrated f«r removing
habitual coftivenefs, fickutfspf the fi»rc.ach an l
severe head-acl r, Jnd ought t» be taken by all
perf.'iis on a chmge of climate.
They have been found remarkably efficacious
in preventing and curing nloft disorders attend
ant on long voyages, and fh vjld be procured
and carefully preserved far use by every ieamar..
Dr.HAHN'S
Genuine Eye-iviter.
A certain and fafe remedy for all difrafes nfthc

frequently fucw' thsjinall nieafl** and fe

Hundreds have experienced its excellent virtues
when nearly deprived of fight.
Tooth-ache Drops.
The only remedy yet discovered which gives im

For the cure of every kind ofhead-ache,and so
