Dlt PIERRE E. BiiA VnlN’b,
Genuine Anti-Rheumatic Salve.
fIXHIS well approved remedy, has been by,
JL many repeated trials found to excel all oth
ers as yet offered to the public, for the cure of
all sorts of Rheumatism; its efficacy in giving
speedy reliefin this complaint, is astonishing'!
not only in easing the pain, but in dissolving
the coagulated lymph which fixes itself on va
rious parts, and by continuing to remain station -
ary, produces incureable lameness. Moreover
it is an excellent remedy to ali&y the pain of the
Gout, Paralytic Pain, help local Palsy, obviate
Gangrene, remove the Cramp, the Tooth-Ache,
and the Crick in the back. It is superior to al
most every other application for burns & scalds,
and if applied immediately, extracts the fire al
most instantaneously. It infallibly cures bruis
es and sprains, broken breast, sore nipples, ul
cers and sores. It is good for the mumps, sore
throat, the hooping cough, the piles, and any
kind of pain or ache. .
When mercury has been used and by reason
of a cold becomes fixed (as it commonly does)
in the joints, by which means a joint swells, is
stiff and painful, by applying the Anti-Rheuma
tic Salve, one may expect to be relieved in a
short time; however, in some very cbstir.ate
cases, or of long standing, the warm-bath may
be had recourse to with advantage, previous to
using the Salve.
The author being well known in the treat
ment and cure of Rheumatism, assures the pub
lic, that neither mercury nor any of its com
pounds, in any shape whatever, nor any ingre
dient injurious to health, enters the composi
tion of the Anti-Rheumatic Salve, which is offer
ed to the public not as a cure all, but as an ex
cellent and as an excellent and safe remedy for
external application. He relies on the Salve to
recommend itself.
No sea vessel should be without this very val
uable Salve, and all fan ilies ought always to
keep it in their houses.
Certificate of Dr. Thomas Fitch, A r o. 127 A’orih
Ninth Street, Philadelphia.
I the Subscriber, a regular practitioner in
Fhysic and Surgery, now a citizen and inhabit
ant of the City of Philadelphia, do certify and
say, that I have examined Docter Pierre E.
Brandin’s Genuine Anti-Rheumatic halve, and
and having had it in my family, and for the good
and benefit of the public, I do recommend it
and particularly to those who are afflicted with
the complainte for which its Author recom
mends it. In faith of whifcli, I have signed
the present Certificate this day, October the
24th 1815 Signed. THOMAS FITCH.
Witness, Peter Wm. Gautier.
Certificate of David Ayres.
I David Ayrt-s,do hereby testify, that I have
been much troubled with the Cronical Rheti
matism, or Wandering Gout for years, hearing
of Dr. Pierce E Brandin’s Genuine Anti-Rheu
matic Salve, I bought a smalt box for trial, and
finding it gave me immediate relief, and answer ■
ed my purposes better than any thing of the
kind as yet offered to the public, induced me to
buy one of his large boxes One of my daugh
ters for some time was sorely afflicted with
Biles breaking out in various parts of her body,
and were very troublesome to her, she applied
the said salve (as directed) to her biles, in a fev
minutes her biles were easy, and in a short time
cured. Therefore, from the good that 1 and
[my family has received from Dr. P. E. B’s Gen
uine Anti-Aheumatic Salve, I freely recommend
it to the public, wishing my fellow creatures to
be relieved as I have been, considering the said
save as far as my knowledge will admit, to be
an excellent, safe and extraordinary remedy for
external application, and doubt whether any
other can surpass it In faith of which I have
signed and delivered the present certificate it,
presence of Peter Wm. Gautier.
Signed, DAVID AYRES.

Whereas, it aj, pears by a memorial of the i

that the good people of the said city, and es
pecially the poorfc. illiterate people thereof, have
suffered heretofore much evil from th- want of j
proper laws to regulate the practice of medicine, I
surgery, and midwifery therein, the conse
quence of which want has been, the indi?c> imin-:
ate and arrogant pretensions and undertakings!
of many unlearned and empirical persons to’
practice therein in the said arts; And whereas.!
sound policy and a properregard for the healths}
and lives of the citizens of a commercial, popu
lous, and growing city, require that the legisla
ture should guard against such an evil for the
future:
