THESE Pills are no longer among those of doubtful util
ity. They have passed away from the hundreds that
are daily launched upon the tide of experiment, ami now
stand before the public as hi.lt in reputation, and as cxten
(lively employed in all parts of th ; United States, the Canadas,
Texas. Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that
has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering man. I hey
have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry
them; and there are but few towns that do not contain some
remarkable evidences of their good effects. The certificates
that have hew presented to the proprietor exceed twenty
thousand ! upwards of five hundred of which are from reg
ular i»ractising physicians, who are the most competent
judges of their merits.
Often have the cures performed by this medicine been the
•abject of editorial comment, in various newspapers and
journals; and it may with truth be asserted, thnt no medicine
vs the kind has ever received testimonials of greater value
than are attached to this.
They ate in general use as a family medicine and there
are thousands of families who deciare they arc never satis
fied until they have a supply always on hand.
They have no rival in curing ami preventing Billions Fe
vers, Feverand Ague. Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick
Headache, Jauudice \stiiina. Dropsy, Rheumatism, En
largement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholic. Female obstructions,
Heartburn. Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stom
ach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhea, Flatulence, Habitual
Costiveness, Loss of Appetite. Blotched or sallow Complex
ion. and in cases of torpor of the bowels, whete a cathartic or
aperient is needed. They arc exceedingly mild in their op
eration, producing neither nausea, griping nor debility.
From Dr. Eli Todd, late 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 very .favorable impression of his
talents and his character, derived from his friends, havesM
itfled me that he is well entitled to the medical honors he re
ceived at Yale College, and that the public rnay safely con
fids in his integrity am! skill, in the exerciseof his profession.
The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly
respectable Planter of Wake County, N. Ca., March 3d,
1838.
Dr. Peters—Dear Sir.—By request of your agent, Mr.
’Harrison. 1 send you a few lines respecting the almost,mi
raculeus effects of your pills; and I would add, that you
may make use of them, in connection wuh tny name, in any
manner you deem proper. I speak of their merits fiom ex
perience, as I and my family have taken upwards of thirty
boxes in three years; and so great are the benefits we
have received from them in general, th ;t I would rather pur
chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house without
them. I will not enumerate the afflictions they have reliev
ed ns of; but I can assure you they were many, and of very
opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your
medicine is a simple purifier 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 and was brought by it to the
verge of the grave She was attended by the most eminent
phvsicians that money could procure; but all their efforts to
restore her to health, or even to mitigate her sufferings weic
fruitless ; and accordingly, we all considered her immediate
death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was
in thia situation, expectin, 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 les» than three months she was perfectly restored to
health. The case I nnd ail who were w itness of it,but (more
especially the suffering party.) considered to be th'-next thing
xo miraculous; and yet I 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
I add that the popularity of your medicine amounts to enthu
siasm in this section of the country ? But this 1 presume
you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. I may
mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I
never heard an individual complain of its effects. My resi
lience is 12 miles from Raleigh on the road to Fayetteville.
A am with sentiments of regard, vour ob’t servant.
A. g. Banks.
To Dr. Peters,—Sir—for upwards of fifteen months. I have
been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the
time could find nothing—though 1 had applied to every
thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At
length, however, your pills were recommended tome, by one
of our best physicians, and I am most grateful and happy in
neieg able to add, that I had scarcely two boxes w hen 1
•fo’etvl that they had restored mo to perfect health Since then,
various members of my family have used them with equal
•uecess—and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you
«f the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate.
«■ I am anxious to add my public testimony to the almost
miraculous virtues of your unrivalled medicine.

Dr. J. P. Peters—My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th

foea, (Mr. Lee.) where I found h's son laboring under a most

rently beyond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for
nae. however. I had in my pockets a broken box of youi
pill. —four of which I administered, with such immediate
happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease,
•ad out of danger. This case, in connection with my name
is at your service—and I have the pleasure to inform you that
year inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the fac

HAYNES’ PILLS.
ANTI -DYSPE PT IC &> ANTI-BIL L IO US
Prepared by C. E. KAYNES, HI. D.
SPARTA, GEORGIA.
gN offering these Pills to the public, it is not deemed obtru
sive or impertinent to give a brief history of die circum
stances which led to their original preparation, iu December,
18’28. Dr. IL took •is seat iu Congress as a Representative
from Georgia while laboring under protracted billions disease,
the consequence of a severe attack of fever in die course of
the previous autumn. Having exhausted the usual remedies
w iihout relief, he determined to try the effect of combining a
number of well known medicines, with die separate action of
each he hail been familiarly acquainted in his professional
course of more than twenty years. These medicines so com
bined, compose his ANTI-DYSPEPTIC AND .ANTI-.
BILLIOUS PILLS. He proceed- dto take, as directed for
dyspepsia and other chronic diseases requiring action on the
bowels, one pill at bed time, which ho continued to repeat
nightly for about a week, at which time he was as free fiom
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, hv prescribed
them for his brother, who had been laboring under dyspepsia
and liver complaint from the autumn of 1823, iu consequence
of a severe and protracted attack of billions fever. His health
began immediately to improve, and has been restored by them
in the manner stated in his certificate. The pills were pre
scribed to others laboring under chronic billions affections,
upon the confidence inspired by their success in the foregoing
cases, until those cases became so numeroas, that applications
were annually made to Dr. II from 1835 to 1838 inclusive,
w hen about to depart for Washington, forfrom twenty to fifty
dozen as a supply during his absence, by persons who
had tested their virtues So tar, no serious thought
was 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 oiler them for general
use. until two or three years after he had been urged todoso,
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 was not un
til alter more than ten years experience of their use in many
of the varieties of chronic, nnd some of the more violent acute
febrile diseases, that he became convinced, ;t£ he now' is. that
they possess greater merit in all cases requiring either mild or
vigorous action upon the bowels, than any other known rem
edy. As an 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
bowels, by producing usually -’but one evacuation daily, and
that »f a solid, rather than a liquid' consistence.” Nor is it
difficult to account (or theirmor/us operand!. Mere evacuauts
operate by stimulating the mucous membrane of the stomach
and bowels, without affecting the organs essential 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
an efficient and healthy influence upon the liver and other or
gnus of the digestive apparatus, and, consequently operate in
the mildest manner, and not only give present relief, but w hen
steadily persevered in. a permanent cure.
Not tire they less efficient in feverand other acute diseases
requiring active purgation, by increasing the dose ns directed,
causing the double operation of more vigorous action on the
bowels, and proportionally stimulating the liver and otheroi
gans to more heulthy 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, that, any
other known medicine
It is not deemed necessary to specify the various disorders
for the relief of which they are applicable, but the following
are enumerated as some of them: Dyspepsia, sick head ache”
liver complaint, asthma, habitual or casual co-tiveuess. Diar
rhrea. heart-burn, cholic, sour stomach, billions fever, female
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
a single pill is. generally, a sufficient dose. They are per •
liarly adapted to the condition of all persons of sedentary ha
bits, either male or female, who with scaicely a solitary ex
(■option, suffer from a sluggish state of the bowels. Thev are
also recommended as particularly convenient to the traveller
in warm climates, or seasons, ami for the use of large fami
lies, the dose being so easily adjusted, especially wheu resi
ding at a distance from the experienced physician.
The inventor asks his his own fellow citizens to give the
pills • fair trial—pledging himself if they will do so. that they
will not fail to obtain the confidence, and preference of ninety
nine out of a hundred, oi nine hundred and ninety-nine out
of a thousand. As an alterative, or mild aperient, for correct
ing habitual or casual torpidity of the bowels, one pill taken
at bed lira ■ is the pj'oper dose, without the necessity ofcban
ging ordinary habits of living If one should fail to produce
the desired effect, it is better to repeat it for two or three suc
cessive eights, than to ai l its operation by taking any thin
else. ”
For billions fever, er other acute disease requiring active
purgation, one pill repeated every hour or two. until the de
siredeflw-l is produced, is ibcbi-st mode of administering them.
Th.- subjoined certificates sufficiently attest the efficacy of
these pilU.
CERTIFICATES.
Spahta, 15th June, 1839.
I certify that J have used Doct. C. E. Haynes’ Auti-Dys
peptic Pilis for more than two years; and pronounce them to
be the best remedy, that I have ever yet tried, for Dyspepsia
and Asthma, 1 have tried Ghallaghan’s, Beckwith’s, Bran
dreth’s and Peter’s Pills, without success. I have also found
Hayaes’ Pills to be an excellent remedy for intermiient and
bilious fever in early stages. WM. SHIVERS, Jr.
Sparta, June 15th, 1839.
Dr. C. E. Haynes:—Dear Sir—My attention was direct
ed to your Pills a little more than a year since, by Col. Shiv
ers. Since that time, I have frequently taken them myself,
and given them to my family with the most happy results.
With me they have removed costiveness, checked effectu
ally diarrhea, and taken off bile as fully as calomel, without
producing the unpleasant effect that is usually produced by
that valuable medicine. I therefore believe them a valuable
medicine, and would recommend a trial of them, at least.
Respectfully, R. S. HARDWICK.
Milledgeville. 17th June, 1839.
I am pleased with the opportunity of adding my testimony
to the value of Dr. Haynes’ Anti-Dyspeptic Pills.
I have used them occasionally for more than a year past,
in ordinary diseases of the stomach and bowels, with the hap
piest effects; ami recently, in a sharp intermittent bilious fe
ver, which was entirely eradicated by them, iu three or four
days without the aid of any other medicine, and cheerfully
recommend them as admirably adapted to the cure of dys-J
peptic and bilie us <li*eM«», WM McMURMAY. 1
Having been recently attacked with strong bilious symp
toms. i used Dr. Haynes’ Pil.s with the happiest effect, which
entirely relieved me. and which I do not hesitate to recom
mend as a valuable medicine.

Dr. C. E. Haynes: Sir—For several yeais past. I have
been afflicted w ith obstinate coslivi ness of .he bowels, often
going from six to ten days without any discharge from them.
For several months, I used Dr. Peters’pills, and found them
useful to me. Early last Spring I was induced Io try your
Anti dyspeptic Pills, a hiclt 1 have continued to use as occa
sion required, and have derived more bent-fit from them than
from any other medicine 1 have ever taken.
The operation is more easy, and the effect more permanent
than from anv other medicine I have heretof >re used, and I
give them a decided preference to any other remedy.

Dr. C. E. Haynes:—lt affords me pleasure to state. tl>at I
have repeatedly used your Anti-dyspeptic and Auti-biliuus

them to be an excellent remedy iu various diseases, and es
pecially in cases of asthma.

several phy-iciaus w ithout deriving any benefit from them.—
She then c immenced 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’ Pills 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 billions fever. 1
took some of Peters’ Pills, and not receiving any benefit from
them, 1 procured a box of you l- pills, and am happy to say
that they in a lew days removed all symptoms of approach
ing sickness. I conceive them to be an invaluable medicine.
Yours with respect, THOS. M. TURNER.
Milledgeville. July 26, 1839.
Dr. Haynes, Sir: I take great pleasure in adding my tes
timonial to those ytiu have already received, to the value of
your anti-dyspeptic and anti-bi'lious pills.
At your instance, I commenced using them in tny family
about six years ago, and Intuid them more uniformly effica
cious than any other remedy I have ever given. Especially
in a recent case ot menstrua! obstruction of long standing-,
ineffectually treated by several distinguished physicians,
which was entirely relieved in a very few days, by the use of
your pills.
More ecently still, 1 have given them in the early stage of
billions fever, with entire success.
Your friend, ALFRED M. HORTON.
Milledgeville, 25th July. 1839
Dr. C. E. Haynes; I 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 \nti-Billious Pills; but the numerous testimonials
w hich you have received from respectable and intelligent cit
izens, of their value in the cure of diseases for w hich they
were intended, will, I think, justify me in now adding my own,
having experienced their benefits fora longer period than any
other individual, yourself only excepted.
In the spring of 1829, after having been afflicted from the
autumn of 1823 with dyspepsia, liver complaint, heart-burn,
and occasional severe attacks of cramp cholic. I was induced
at your instance, to use a pill which you had prepaied at
Washington City, in the winter of 1828. I hail not taken
them a w eek, before their good effects were so apparent as
to induce their continuance, and at the end of a mouth, 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 enjoved in a very high degree.
1 have used them with great effect in my own family, in
cases of billions fever, dyspepsia and 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 Auti-
Dvspeptic and Anti-Billious Pills, in a severe billious attack,
and found them most efficient mi removing the disease.
I have used them with great success, in several similar at
tacks since, as well as for cholic and disoidcrs of the stomach
and bowels.
They have also been administered to several members of
my family, with like results, and particularly in a case of bil
lious fever, iu she early part of the present season.
F’rom the very fair trml which I have made of these pills,
and the signal bent fits which my family and myself have de- -
rived from them. I am fully warranted in recommending them j
as « medicine of inestimable value; and confidently predict. I
that they have only to be tried, to find great favor with the ■
public. JESSE COX
