BOWEL COMPLAINTS.
Dr. JAYNE'S CARMINATIVE BALSAM.
For the cure of that destructive disease on Children, the
\ Summer Complaint ■ and fur Bowel Complaints, Cho
lera Mur bus, Dysentery, (sfc .- and all diseases arising
dropsy, St. Vitus’s dance, epilepsy, apoplexy, paraly
sis, palsy, green sickness, and all obstructions to which
the female form is so distressingly liable, and which
■ends a > imny of this fairest portion of the creation to
their untimely graves; small pox, measles, whooping
cough, scarlet fever, asthma, jaundice, gravel, stone,
and all urinary obstructions! fistula, piles, strictures,
rupture*, and a* phi|i« in all its stages; constipated bow
els, worms, scurvy, it^hings of the skin, king’s ovil,
and all cutaneous disorders; in short, every complaint
to which the human frame if bo direfully subject, un
der all their varied forms and names; as the Hvgeian
conviction is, that man is subject to one only rent
I)i*e<ue,-that i*. TO THE IMPURITY OF THE
BLOOD, -from whence springs every complaint that
can possibly assail his complicated frame; and that it
is the perpetual atruggle of this vital, pure stream of
life, (the gift of Almighty power) to disencumber it
self of its viscous, scrid humours, with which it has be
come commixed, through the negligence of parent*;
the ignorance or maltreatment of the Doctors; or the
vicious or gormanrlixing propensities of us all.
This valuable Medicine, being composed only of
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted,
on oath, as containing not »ne particle of mercurial,
mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un
congenial to the nature ol man. and therefore destine
live to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly
harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pi asant
and benign in it operation, and at the same time the
most searching out the root of every complaint, how
ever deep, and ol nerfoiminga cure, that waa ever
offered to the world- This wonderful effect, too, is
produced by the least trouble to the pit'ienta, by
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and
being called r. few extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation, with tlu1 least possible sensation of pain, or
exhaustion of bodily rrer.gth, and without the tear of
catcSiing or attention to dress or diet, in any way
different from their accustom, d habits.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot be takpn to
excess Experience, which is the touchstone of all
human knowledge has long borne testimony to the
fact; and extensive use of them lias already verified
its truth in tlds country.
These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak,
the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are
in a few days strengthened b\ their operation, been ise
they clear the body of its bad humours, and invariably
procure sound sleep They are the safest and most
efficacious menicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy,
coativeneaa, Ac.
The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as
sistance to patients, and facilitate the tvacuation of
bad humours; they soften, de-nse, and detach the
acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst,
tine, two, crthree powders mav be taken throughout
the da), mixed in half* wine glass of water.

had experienced ih- good efT-.ct of the Hyguian Pills
in a case or two of her own, most strenuously advised
me to try their virtue, which, with reluctance, I con

not otherwise swallow them. 1 confess the dose made
me feel somewhat qualmish, he ; but the pills and the
powders of which I took one or two tea-spoonsfull a

into a sound sleep, of which I bad been deprived, and
