IIIVNES' PILLS.
ANTI-DYSPEPTIC &, ANTI -BI LLIOUS
WVXWasW Ct
Prepared by E« MAI NES, HI. I>»
SPARTA, GEORGIA.
IN offering these Pills to the public, it is not deemed obtru
sive or impertinent to give a brief history ol the circum
stances w Inch led to their original preparation. In December,
IBgfc, Dr. 11. took i is seat, in Congress as a Representative
from Georgia, n hile laboring under protracted billions disease,
the consequence of a severe attack of level in the eouise ol
the previous autumn. Having exhausted the usual remedies
without relief, he determined to try the effect «.f combining a
number of welt known medicines, with the separate action of
each he had been-familiarly acquainted in his professional
course of more than twenty y ears. These medicines so com
bined, compose his AN TI-DY SI’EPI 1C AM) 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 he continued to repeat
nightly for about a week, nt which time he was as free ftoin
billions disease as if he had never been afflicted with it. On
liis return to Georgia in the spring of 1829, in consequence of
the signal benefit ho had derived from the pills, ht prescribed
them for his brother, who had been laboring under dyspepsia
and liver complaint from the autumn of 10'23, in consequence
of a severe mid protracted attack of billions fever. His health
began immediately to im pt ove. 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 numerous, that applications
were annually made to Dr. IL from 183.5 to 1838 inclusive,
when about to depart for Washington, for from twenty to fifty
dozen as a supply during his absence, hy persons who
had tested their virtues So tar. no serious thought
xvas 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. IL consent to prepare and oiler them for general
wse, until two or three years after he had been urged to do so,
by those who had been signally benefited by them. When
Hrst used by himself, he supposed their application would be
confined to eases of chronic billions disease, and it was not un
til after more than ten years experience of their use in many
of the varieties of chronic, and some of the more violent acute
febrile diseases, that lie became convinced, as 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 sf a solid, rather than a liquid consistence.” Nor is it
difficult to account for their modus operandi. Mere evacuants
operate by stimulating the mucous membrane of the stomach
ami 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 mupous coat with
an efficient and healthy influence upon the liver and other or
gans of the digestive apparatus, ami, consequently operate in
the mildest manner, and not onlygive present relief, but when
steadily persevered in. a permanent cti.e.
Not arc they less efficient in fever and other acute diseases
requiring active purgation, by increasing the dose as directed,
causing the double operation ».l more vigorous action ou the
bowels, and proportionably 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 ased them, that they approach more nearly to the char
acter of a universal renledy in the cases indicated, than 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 costiveness. Diar
rhea, heart burn, cholic, sour stomach, billious fever, female
obstructions, &c., &c. In short, in every disease requiring
action on the bowels. Nor is it the smallest recommendation,
that in dyspepsia, liver oomplaints, and other chronic diseases,
a single pill is, generally, n sufficient dose. They are pecu
liarly adapted to die condition of all persons of sedentary ha
bits, either male orfemale, who. with scaicely a solitary ex
ception, suffer fiom a sluggish state of the bowels. They 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 a fair trial—pledging himself if they will do so, that they
will not fail to obtain the confidence, and preference of ninety
■ineoutofa hundred, oi nine hundred and ninety-niue out
of a thousand. As an alterative, or mild aperient, for correct
ing habitual or casual torpility of the bowels, one pill taken
■at bed lira > is the proper dose, without the necessity of chan
ging ordinary habits of living If one should fail to produce
the desired effect, it is better to repeal it for two or three suc
cessive nights, than to aid its operation by taking any thing
else.
For billious fever, or other acute disease requiring active
purgation, one pill repeated every hour or two, until the de
sired effect is produced, is tbe In st mode of administering them.
The subjoined certificates sufficiently attest the efficacy of
these pills.
CERTIFICATES.
Sparta, 15th June, 1839.
I certify, that I have used Doct. C. E. Haynes’ Anti-Dys
peptic Pills formorc than two years; and pronounce them to
be the best remedy, that I have ever yet tried, for Dyspepsia
and Asthma. 1 have tried Ghallagban’s, Beckwith's, Bran
dreth’s and Peter’s Pills, without success. I have also found
Hayues’ Pills to be an excellent lemedy for iutermitenl 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 litde more than a year since,<>y Col. Shiv
,er». Since that time, 1 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. Hayues' Anti-Dy.sfeptic Pills.
I have used them occasionally for more than a year past,
in ordinary diseases of the stomach and bowels, with the bap
piest effects; and recently, in a sharp intermittent bilious fe
ver, which was entirely eradicated by them, in three or four
days, without the aid of any other medicine, and cheerfully
recommend them as admirably adapted to the cure of dys
peptic and bilious diseases. WM McMURRAY.
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 as a valuable medicine.
CHARLES E. RYAN,
Milledgeville. 24th Juno, 1839.
Sparta, July 15, 1839.
Dr. C. E. Haynes; Sir—For several years past, I have
been afflicted with obstinate costiveness of the 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 1 was induced to try your
Anti-dyspeptic Pills, which 1 have continued to occa
sion required, ami 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 heretof >re used, and 1
give them a decided preference to any other remedy.
NATHAN COOK.
Powelton, July 15, 1839.
Dr. C. E. Haynes:—lt affords me pleasure to state, that 1
■ have repeatedly used your Anii-dyspcptic and Auti-bilious
pills, and in every instance found immediate relief. 1 believe
them to be an excellent remedy in various diseases, and es
pecially in cases of asjbrna.
In high esteem, B,’c., See..
JNO. WILLIAM RABUN.
Sparta, July 16, 1839.
Dear Sir—l have used in my practice some of your altera
• iive Anti-dyspeptic pills, ami have uniformly found benefit to
my patients from their administration. I cat) therefore cheer
fully recommend them to the afflicted, as a valuable purgative
medicine. Very respectfully.
Your friend,

Dr. Charles E. II ayues.
Hancock County, July 15, 1839.
I certify that my wife had suffered severely with Dyspcp-
for a considerable time and had tried the prescriptions of
several physicians without deriving any benefit from them.—
: She then c tmmenced taking Dr. C. E. Haynes’ .Anti-Dys
peptic Pills about the fall of 1836, w hich relieved her entire
ly in the course of a few months.
R. MITCHELL.
Sparta, July 16, 1839,
Dr. Hayties; 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, I had strong symptoms of billions fever. I
took some ol Peters’ Pills, and not receiving any benefit from
them, 1 procured a .box of yon'- 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. M. 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 I have ever given. Especially
in a recent case of 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, I have given them in the curly stage of
billious fever, with entire success.
Your friend, ALFRED M. HORTON 1 .
Milledgeville, 25H1 July. 1831)
Dr. C. E. Haynes; I have been hitherto induced by feel
ings of delicacy alone, to withhol I 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
were intended, will, 1 think, justify mein 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 ot 1823 with dyspepsia, liver complaint, heart-burn,
and occasional severe attacks of cramp cholic. I w as induced
at your instance, to use. a pill which yon 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, and at tire end of a mouth, J
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 of billions fever, dyspepsia and cholic, aud confidently
recommend them as an invaluable remedy.
T. H \YNES.
Milledgeville, 30th July, 1839.
Dr. Charles E. Haynes : About ten or twelve months since. 1
I was induced by your brother to make a trial of your Anti-
Dyspeptic and Anti-Billions Pills, in a severe billious 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 aud disorders 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, in the early part of the present season.
From the very fair trial which 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; ami confidently predict,
that they have only to be tried, to find great favor w ith the
public. ’ JESSE COX

From Dr. Eli Todd, late President of the Medical
• Society, of Connecticut, «?rZ Principal of the In
sane Hospital, al Hartford, doled 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, have sat
isfied me that he is well entitled to the medical honors he re
ceived at Yale College, aud that the public may safely con
fide in his integrity and skill, in the exercise of 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
raculous effects of your pills; and I would add, that you
may make use of them, in connection with my name, in atty
manner you deem proper. I speak of their merits from 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, that 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 us of; but I can assure you they were many, and of very
opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your
mediciue 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 as
Dieted with dropsy in the chest and 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
tn this situation, expecting every day to 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, I and all who were witness of it, but (more
especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing
to 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 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 fronj Raleigh on the road to Fayetteville.
I am with sentiments of regard, your 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 to me, by one
of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and happy in
being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used two boxes when I
found that they had restored me to perfect health Since then,
various members of my family have used them with equal
success —and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you
of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate,
as I am anxious to add my public testimony to the almost
miraculous virtues of your unrivalled medicine.
THEODORE JAMES.
Augusta. Ga. Feb. 10, 1839.
Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. 11. Ir
win of Florence, Georg a;
Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th
hist , I was called in great haste to the house of a fellow cit
izen, (Mr. Lee,) where 1 found his son laboring under a most
alarming attack of Cynanehe Tracnealis (Cioup) and appa
rently beyond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for
tune, however, 1 had in my pockets a broken box of your
pills—four of which I administered, w ith such immediate
happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease,
and out of danger. This case, in connection with my name
is at your service—and 1 have the pleasure to inform you that
your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the fac
ulty here, that I believe there is not one of them who does
not use it in his private practice.
Yours most respectfully,
March 13, 1839. J. 11. IRWIN,M- D.
Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bogart, pf
Providence, R. L, Dec. 17, 1838. —Peters’ Pills are an ex
cellent aperient and cathartic medicine,!hose effects being pro
duced by the differences of the quantity taken, mid are deci
dedly superior to Loe’s, Brandreth's or Morrison’s Pills.
Extract from a letter written by Dr. Hopson o Bangor,
Maine, Jan. 9, 1839 They arc a peculiarly mild yet efficient
purgative medicine, and produce little, if any, griping or
naseaft. I have presetibed them with such success in sick
headache and slight billions fever.
Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams of Burlington,
Vt , July 9, 1837.—1 cordially recommend Peters’ Pills as a
mildly effective, and in no case dangerous, family medicine.
They are peculiarly influential in cosliveness and all the usu
al diseases of the digestive organs.
Extract of a letter front Dr. Edw. Smith of Montreal, U.
C., Sept. 27, 1836,—1 never knew a single patent medicine
that I could put the least confidence in but. Dr. Peters’Ve
getable Pills, which are really a valuable discovery. 1 have
no hesitation in having it known that I use them extensively
in my practice, for all complaints, (and they are not a few)
which have their source in theimpurity of the blood.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Dye of Quebec L. C., March
6. 1837.—F0r billious fevers, sick headache, torpidity of the
bowels, and cnlarge-ment of the spleen, Dr, Peters’ Pills are
an excellent medicine.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Gurney of New Orleans, La.,
Oct. 9, 1837. 1 have received much assistance in my prac.
tice—especially in jaundice and yellow fever, from the use of
Peters’ Pills. 1 presume that on an average, I prescribe 100
boxes in a month
Extract of a letter from Dr. Prichard of Hudson, N. Y.,
June 3, 1836.—1 was aware that Dr. Peters was one of the
best chemists in the United States, anil felt assured that he
would someday (from his intimate knowledge of the proper
ties of herbs and dings) produce an el’icient medicine, and
1 must acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond to
my expectations. They are indeed a superior medicine, and j
reflect credit alike upon the Chemist, the Physician and the .
Philosopher
Extract of a letter from Dr. Waines of Cincinnati, Feb.
2, 1838—Your Pills are the mildest in their operations, and
yet must powerful in their effects, of any that I have evet
met with in a practice of eight and twenty years. Their ac
tion on the chyle, and hence on the impurities of blood, is ev
idently very surprising.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Scott of Baltimore, Dec. 17,
1836.—1 am in the daily habit of prescribing them, (Peters'
Pills) and they in neatly all cases answered my purpose. I
have discarded other medicines, some of them very good ones,
in their favor.
Charlotte, N. C., Jan. 1, 1837.
Dear Sir—l have , made frequent use of your Pills in
the incipient stage of billions fever, and obstinate constipa
tion of the bowels; also, in the enlargement of the spleen,
chi otiie diseases of the liver, sick headache, general debility,
and in all cases have found them to be very effective.

Having used Dr. Peters’ Pills in my practice for the
