nnur.SE Pills are no longer among those of doubtful util

are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, and now
stand before the public as huh in reputation, and as cxten
sively employed in all parts of th ■ I uited States, the Canadas,
Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that
has ever been prepared lor the relief ol suffering man. They
have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry
them ; and there arc but few towns that do not contain some
remarkable evidences of their good effects, flte certificates
that have beer presented to the proprietor exceed twenty
thousand I upwards ot live hundred of which are from reg- t
ulr.r practising physicians, who are the most competent
judges cf their merits.
Often have the cures performed by this medicine been.the
subject of editorial comment, in various newspapers and
jwnrnals; and it may with -ruth be asserted, that no medicine
• f the kind has ever received testimonials of greater value
than ate attached to this.
They are in general use as a family medicine and there
arc thousands of families who declare they are never sutis-

They have no rival in curing and preventing Biilious Fe

From Dr. Eli Todd, lute President of the Medical
Society, of Connecticut, and Principal of the In
sane Hospital, at Hartford, dated September 8,
1828.
MY personal acquaintance with Dr. Joseph Priestly Pe
ters, together with the favorable impression of his
talente and his character, derived from his friends, have sat
isfied me that he is well entitled to the medical honors he re
•eived at Yale College, ami that the public may safely con
fide iu his integrity and skill, in the exercise of his profession.
The following was forwarded to Dr. Pctees, by a highly
respectable Planter of Wake County, N. Ca., March 3d,

Dr. Peterr.—Dear Sir.—By request of your agent, Mr.
Harrison. I send you a few lines respecting the almost mi
raculous effects of your pills; and I would add, that yon
unav make use of them, in connection with my name, in any
manner yi>fi dectn proper, I speak of their merits fiom ex
■|iericncc. as I and my family have taken upwards of thirty
boxes in three yeats; and so great are the benefits we
have received from them in general, that 1 would rather pur
chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house w ithout
them. I will not enumerate the afllictions they have reliev
ed ns of; but I can assure you they were many, and of very
apposite natures, which has fully proved to mo that your
medicine is n simple putifier of the system, and therefore
equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case.
I have a sister who had been for a long period severely af
flicted with dropsy in the chest ami was brought by it to the
verge of the grave. She was attended by the most eminent
physicians that money could procure ; but all their efforts to
restore her to health, or even to mitigate her sufferings wete
fruitless ; and accordingly, we all considered her immediate
death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was
iu this situation, expedite: every day io be her last, your
pills were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal
pable were their’effects that three doses visibly relieved her,
and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to
health. The case. 1 and ali who were witness of it, but (more
especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing
to miraculous; and yet 1 could mention many more of an
equally desperate nature, in which your pills were equally suc
cessful in rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need
] add that the popularity of your medicine amounts to enthu
siasm iu tins section of the country ? But this I presume
you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. 1 may
mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I
never heard an individual complain of its effects. My resi
dence is 12 miles from Raleigh, on the toad to Fayetteville.
I am with sentiments cf regard, your ob't servant.

To Dr. Pi tors, —Sir—for upwards of fifteen months, I have
been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the
time could find nothing—though I had applied to every
thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At
length, how ever, your pills w ere recommended to me, by one
of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and happy in
being able to add, that I had scarcely used tw o boxes when I
found that they had restored me to perfect health Since then,
various members of my family have used them with equal
■ml consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you
, and to i equest of you to publish this certificate,
txious to add my public testimony to the almost

HAYNES’ PILLS.
ANTI-DYSPEPTIC &, ANTI-BILLIOUS
KLZiS,
Prepared by C. E. KAYNES, M. ®.
SPARTA, GEORGIA.
offering these Pills to the public, it is not deemed obtru
-®- sive or impertinent to give a brief history of the circum
stances which led to their original preparation. In December,
1828. Dr. H. took I is seat in Congress as a Representative
h orn Georgia, while laboring under protracted billions disease,
the consequence of a severe attack of fever tn the course of
the previous autumn. Having exhausted the usual remedies
without relief, he determined ts> try the effect cf combining a
number of well known medicines, with the separate action of
each he had been familiarly acquainted in his professional
course of more than twenty years. These medicines so com
bined, compose his ANTI-DYSPEPTIC AND ANTI
- PILLS, lie proceeded to take, as directed for
dyspepsia and other chronic diseases requiring action on the
bowels, one pill at bed time, which he continued to repeat
nightly for about a week, at which time he was as free Item
billions disease as if he had never been afflicted with it. On
his return to Georgia in the spring of 1829, in consequence of
the signal benefit he had derived from the pills, h's prescribed
them lor his brother, w ho had been laboring under dyspepsia
ami liver complaint from the autumn of 1823, iu consequence
of a severe mid protracted attack of biilious fever. His health
began immediately to improve, and has been restored by them
in the maaner stated in his certificate. The pills were pre
scribed to others laboring under chronic biilious affections,
upon the confidence inspired by their success in the foregoing
cases, until those cases became so numerous, that applications
were annually made to Dr. 11. from 1835 to 1838 inclusive,
when about to depart for Washington, for from twenty to fifty
dozen as a supply during his absence, by persons who
had tested their virtues. So far, no serious thought
w as entertained of offering them to the public at large, as the
supply had been limited to the range of his private practice.
Nor did Dr. 11. consent to prepare and offer them for general
use, until two or three years after he had been urged to do so,
by those who had been signally benefited by them. When
first used by himself, he supposed their application would be
confined to cases of chronic billions disease, and it w as not un
til alter more than ten years experience of their use iu many
ol the varieties of chronic, and some of the more violent acute
febrile diseases, that be became convinced, as ho now is, that
they possess greater merit iu all cases requiring either mild or
vigorous action upon the bowels, than any other known rem
edy. As ait alterative or mild aperient, they answer most ef
fectively. the indication stated by Dr. James Johnson in his
admirable work on the morbid irritability of the stomach and
b tvels, by producing usually ••but one evacuation daily, and
that si a solid, rather than a liquid consistence,” Nor is it
difficult to account for theirwtorfus o/?eran</t. Mere evacuauts
operate by stimulating the mucous membrane of the stomach
and bowels, without affecting the organs essentia! to healthy
digestion, and although they procure temporary relief, the dis
eased secretions grow worse instead of better. These pills
combine the most gentle action upon the mucous.coat w ith
ati efficient and healthy influence upon the liver and other or
gans of the digestive apparatus, ami, consequently operate in
the mildest manner, am! not only give preseutrehef, but when
steadily persevered in, a permanent cine.
Not are they less efficient in feverand other acute diseases
requiring active purgation, by increasing the dose as directed,
causing the double operation r.f more vigorous action on the
bowels, and proportionality stimulating the liver and otheror
gans to more healthy secretions, justifying the confident opin
ion, not only entertained by the inventor, but by many who
have used them, that they approach more nearly to the char
acter of a universal remedy in the cases indicated, than any
other known medicine.
It is not deemed necessary to specify the various disorders
lor the relief of which they arc applicable, hut the following
are enumerated as some of them: Dyspepsia,sick head ache°
liver complaint, asthma, habitual or casual costiveness, Diar
rhea, heart burn, cholic, sour stomach, biilious fever, femtile
obstructions, &c., &c. In short, in every disease requiring
action on the bow els. Nor is it the smallest recommendation,
that in dyspepsia, liver oomplaints, and other chronic diseases,
a single pill is, generally, a sufficient dose. They are pecu
liarly adapted to the condition of all persons of sedentary ha
bits, cither male or female, who. with scatcely a solitary ex
ception, suffer ftom a sluggish state of the bowels. Tliev are
also recommended as particularly convenient to the traveller
in warm climates, or seasons, and for the use of large fami
lies, the dose being so easily adjusted, especially when resi
<lit>“ at a distance from the experienced physician.
The inventor asks his bis own fellow citizens to give the
pills a fair trial—pledging himself if they w ill do so, that they
will not fail to obtain the confidence, and preference of ninety
nine out of a hundred, m nine hundred ami ninety-nine out
of a thousand. As an alterative, ormild aperient, for correct
ing habitual or casual torpility of the bowels, one pill taken
at bed tim t is the proper dose, without the necessity ofchan
ging ordinary habits of living. If one should fail to produce
the desired effect, it is belter to repeat itfor two or three suc
cessive nights, than to aid its operation by taking arty thing
else.
Fot biilious fever, or other acute disease requiting active
purgation, one pill repeated every hour or two, until the de
sired effect is produced, is the best mode of administering them.

Hie best remedy, that 1 have ever yet tried, for Dyspepsia

Haynes’ Pills to be an excellent lemedy for iiitermitent and

Sparta. June 15th, 1839.
Dn. C. E. Haynes:—Dear Sir—My attention was direct
ed to your Pills a little more than a year since, hy Col. Shiv
ers. Since that time, I have frequently taken them myself,
and given them to my family with the most happy results.
Willi me they have removed costivetiess, checked effectu
ally diart hea, and taken off bile as fully as calomel, without
producing the unpleasant effect that is usually produced hy
that valuable medicine. I therefore believe them a valuable
medicine, and would recommend a trial of them, at least.

Milledgeville, 17th Juno, 1839.
I am pleased with the opportunity of adding my testimony
to the value of Dr. Haynes’ Anti-Dy.speptic Pills.
I have used them occasionally for more than a year past, I
in ordinary diseases of the stomach and bowels, with the hap- (
picst effects; and recently, in a sharp intermittent bilious fe- I
vet, which was entirely eradicated hy them, in three or four J
days, without the aid of any other medicine, and cheerfully
recommend them as admirably adapted to the euro of <lys- (
peptic and bilious diseases. WM McJVIURRAY.
Having been recently attacked with strong bilious symp
toms, 1 used Dr. Haynes’ Pills with the happiest effect, which
entirely relieved me, ami which 1 do not hesitate to recom
mend tis a valuable medicine.

Dr. C. E. Haynes; Sir —For several years past, 1 have
been afflicted with obstinate costiveness of Ute bow els, often
going from six to ten days without tiny discharge from them.
For several months, I used Dr. Peters’ pills, ami found them
useful to me. Early last Spring 1 was induced to try your
Anti-dyspeptic Pills, which 1 have continued to use as occa
sion required, and have derived more benefit from them than
from any other medicine 1 have ever taken.
The operation is more easy, and the effect more permanent
than from any other medicine 1 have hereto!’ire used, and 1
give them a decided preference to any other remedy.

I certify that my wife had suffered severely with Dyspep
sia. for a considerable time and had tried the prescriptions of
several physicians w ithout deriving any benefit from them.—
She then commenced taking Dr. C. E. Haynes’ Anti-Dys

y in the course of a few months.
R. MITCHELL.
Sparta, July 16, 1839,
Dr. Haynes; I have been selling Peters’ Pilis for the las
three years, and during the time have occasionally taken them
myself. (I believe them to be a good medicine) Some 12
or 15 days past, 1 had strong symptoms of biilious fever. I
took some of Peters’ Pills, and not receiving any benefit from
them, 1 procured a box of your pills, and am happy to say
that they in a few days removed all symptoms of approach
ing sickness. I conceive them to be an invaluable medicine.
Yours with respect, TIIOS. AL TURNER.
Milledgeville, July 26, 1839.
Dr. Haynes, Sir: I take great pleasure in adding my tes
timonial to those you have already received, to the value of
your anti-dyspeptic and anti-bi'lious pills.
At your instance, 1 commenced using them in my family
about six years ago, and found them more uniformly effica
cious than any other remedy 1 have ever given. Especially
in a recent case of menstrua! obstruction of long standing,
ineffectually treated by several distinguished physicians,
w hich was entirely relieved iu a very few days, by the use of
your pills.
More -ecently still, I have given them in the early stage of
biilious fever, with entire success.
Your friend, ALFRED M. HORTON.
Milledgeville, 25th July, 1839
Dr. C. E. Haynes; 1 have been hitherto induced by feel
ings of delicacy alone, to withhold from the public, the expres
sion of my opinion in regard to the merits of your Anti-Dys
peptic and Anti-Billious Pills; but the numerous testimonials
which you have received from respectable and intelligent cit
izens, of their value in the cure of diseases for which they
w'ere intended, will, I think, justify me in now adding my own,
having experienced their benefits’for a longer period than any
other individual, yourself only excepted.
In the spring of 1829, after having been alflicted front the
autumn of 1823 with dyspepsia, liver complaint, heart-burn,
and occasional severe attacks ofcramp cholic, I was induced
at your instance, to use a pill which you had prepared at
Washington City, in the winter of 1828. I had not taken
them a week, before their good effects were so apparent as
to induce their continuance, anil at the end of a month, 1
found my system greatly relieved, and by their occasional
use. for a few months, was restored to an excellent state of
health, w hich I have ever since enjoyed in a very high degree.
I have used them with great effect in my own family, in
cases ol billions fever, dyspepsia ami cholic, and confidently
recommend them as an invaluable remedy.
T. HAYNES.
Milledgeville, 30th July, 1839.
Dr. Charles E. Haynes : About ten or twelve months since,
I was induced by your brother to make a trial of your Anti-
Dyspeptic and Anli-BilLous Pills, in a severe biilious attack,
and found them most efficient in removing the disease.
I have used them with great success, in several similar at
tacks since, as well as for cholic and disoiders of the stomach
ami bowels.
They have also been administered to several members of
my family, with like results, and particularly in a case of bil
lions fever, in the early part of the present season.
From the very fair trial w hich I have made of these pills,
and the signal benefits which my family and myself have de
rived from them. I am fully warranted in recommending them
as a medicine of inestimable value ; and confidently predict,
that they have only to be tried, to find great favor with the
public. ' JESSE COX
