For the prevention and cure of Dilio s and Mdlignunt Fevers, is recommended, Dr. HAHM's Anti-bilious Pills, WHICH have been attended with a degree of success highly grateful to the inven tory feelings, in several parts of the Weft In dias.an 1 the fouthcrn parts of the United State;- particularly in Baltimore, Peterfourg, Rich, mofd, Norfolk, Edenton, Wilmington,Charlef ton, Savannah. &c. The teftiinony of a num ber of ptrfoasin each of the above places can be adduced, who have reason to believe that a tirnelyuf«of th s salutary remedy, has, under Providence, prefcrved their lives when in the inoft alarming circsmftances. _ . Fails of this concltifive nature speak more in favour o! a medicine, than columns of pompous eulogy, founded on mere iflertk n, coul-l do. It is not indeed pr«l'umptuoufly jropoled as an infallible cure, but the inventor has every poffib!e reason, which can result from extensive experier.ee for believing that adefcttf theft pills, taken once every two weeks during the preva lence of our anthial bilious fevers, will prove an in illible preventative ; and further-that in the earlier (tages of ti.ofe difeales, their use will very generally succeed in restoring health and frequently in calei mfcd desperate asd bey* end the power of common remedies. The operation of theft -pit s is p'rfeflly- mild and may be used with ktety tiy ~erlbn» in every situation and of every age. They are excellently adapt- I to entry off fuj perfluoua bile and prevent its morbid fccretions 1 ; to reflore and amend the appetite ; t» produce a free, perspiration and thereby prevent colds which are often of fatal conlequence. A dose Bever fails to remove a cold taken on its firft appearance. They are celebrated lor rrm..ving habitual coftivenels, fickurfs jf the fl»n»»ch and severe head-ache, and ought to be taken by all persons on a change o( climate. They have been found remarkably efficacious in preventing and Curing tnoit disorders attend ant on long voyages, and (hould be procured and carefully preserved for use by every teaman.
