PILES. As a remedy for this most distreipg
and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LU2E

recommendation. It is well known to huudrt dstiu
this city, that the former proprietor of tliee valu
able Medicines was himself afHicted wrth lais
complaint for upwards of thisty five tears and
that he tried iu vain every remedy prescribf-d
within the whole compass of the Materia Mrdifa.
He however at length tried the Medicine which! is
now offered to the public, and be was cured hi a
