<HEAD>The Sick may have Advice for Nothing,</HEAD>
<P>And of him good Medicines cheap, with directions how to u&s;e them, by which, and God's a&s;&s;i&s;tance, he is able to care any Di&s;ea&s;e, either inward, or outward, of what name or nature &s;oever, if curable. He hath mo&s;t incomparable Pills to cure the <HI>Scurvy,</HI> the be&s;t, or at lea&s;t as good as any in being, which he will &s;ell, with directions how to u&s;e them, at 1 <HI>s.</HI> 6 <HI>d.</HI> the half Box, and 3 <HI>s.</HI> the whole Box, containing 36 Pills. They may indifferent well be taken in any weather, but be&s;t in temperate weather, without hindrance of Bu&s;ine&s;s: And they will keep good &s;ome years, whereby they may be beneficial to &s;uch as live in the Country, or to Seamen that travel to Foreign Parts. They do not only cure the <HI>Scurvy,</HI> by opening ob&s;tructions of the Spleen, and purging melancholy humors from the Blood in every vein, but they purge Choler and Fleghm too, opens ob&s;tructions of the Liver, &s;weetens the Blood, and gives it its due Circulation. They clean&s;e the Brea&s;t, Stomach and Head of mo&s;t Di&s;ea&s;es that can afflict them. They open ob&s;tructions of the Womb in Women, and help them to the benefit of Nature, or monthly Purgations. They clean&s;e the Reins, and are as good a Purge in the <HI>Running of the Reins,</HI> or <HI>French-Pox,</HI> as any can be u&s;ed, of which di&s;tem|per he hath cured many with Privacy, without hindring of Bu&s;ine&s;s, in a little time, and for a &s;mall charge, when they have been &s;poiled, and almo&s;t undone by others, without Fluxing, or u&s;ing of Mercury. With a plea&s;ant Liquor for the &s;ame, at half a Crown the Bottle, which cureth all heat of Urine and pain in making water. Al&s;o the <HI>Scurvy, Drop&s;ie, Ague, Stone</HI> and <HI>Gout,</HI> if curable, as well as the Di&s;ea&s;e in Fa&s;hion. His Pills cures as many Di&s;tempers as any Purging Medicine can; and who&s;oever hath u&s;ed them yet, have prai&s;ed them, and I hope will do.</P>
<P><HI>Saffold</HI>'s <HI>Cordial Elixir</HI> is a great Ea&s;er and Curer of all kind of pains in any part of the Body, from head to foot. It helps to give the Blood its due Ci<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="1 letter">culation, and is excellent again&s;t the <HI>Scurvy,</HI> and may be &s;afely taken at any time, or in any weather, but be&s;t two hours before Breakfa&s;t, Dinner, and Supper, and oftner if need requires, 1, 3, or 5 &s;poonfuls at a time, which you find doth be&s;t agree with your Age and Con&s;titution. To cure any &s;ort of Ague, take this or his <HI>Ague-Pill</HI> an hour before the Fit cometh, and &s;weat upon it, nothing more &s;afe to cau&s;e a good &s;tomach, and brisk lively Complexion. It's good to cure Women of all &s;uch Di&s;tempers as are not &s;eemly to name in this Bill; it's prevalent in curing the <HI>Running of the Reins,</HI> and <HI>French Pox,</HI> which Di&s;temper none cures &s;ooner, few &s;o well as him. In &s;hort, there is no <HI>Cordial</HI> nor <HI>Elixir</HI> made more uni<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="1 letter">er&s;ally good to cure (with God's help) any Di&s;ea&s;e in any nature (if curable) than his, which hinders no Bu&s;ine&s;s, and holds its full Vertue for many years. Try before you Judge; Speak as you Find. He is to be &s;poken with from 8 in the Morning, till 10 at Night. A private Lodging may be had if de&s;ired. Beware you do not mi&s;take his Hou&s;e, as &s;ome have done, another living near him, pretending to the &s;ame. His <HI>Cordial Elixir</HI> is Half a Crown the Half-pint Bottle, with directions in Print how to take it, or his be&s;t <HI>Pills</HI> and <HI>Diet-Drink.</HI>
<Q><L>He knows &s;ome who are Knaves in Grain,</L>
<L>And have more Gall and Spleen than Brain,</L>
<L>Will ill reward his Skill and Pain.</L></Q></P>
<P>And notwith&s;tanding he ha<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="1 letter">h practi&s;ed A&s;trology above 23 years, and hath had the Bi&s;hop of <HI>London</HI>'s Licence to practi&s;e Phy&s;ick, ever &s;ince the 4th. day of <HI>September</HI> 1674. and hath, he thanks God for it, great Experience and wonderful Succe&s;s in both tho&s;e Arts, giving to doubtful People great &s;atisfaction, and, by God's Ble&s;&s;ing, cureth the Sick of any Age or Sex of any Di&s;temper, though given over by others, and never &s;o bad, (if curable;) therefore let none de&s;pair of a Cure, but try him.</P>
<P>Yet &s;ome co<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="1 letter">ceited Fools will ask how he came to be able to do &s;uch great Cures, and to &s;oretel &s;uch &s;tra<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="1 letter">ge things, and to know how to make &s;uch rare and powerful Medicines as his be&s;t <HI>Pills, Elixir</HI> and <HI>Diet-Drinks</HI> are, and where|fore he doth publi&s;h the &s;ame in Print. Bu<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="1 letter"> he will an&s;wer &s;uch dark Animals thus:
<Q><L>It hath &s;o plea&s;ed God the King of Heaven,</L>
<L>Being He to him hath Knowledge given,</L>
<L>And in him there Can be no greater Sin,</L>
<L>Than to hide his Talent in a Napkin.</L>
<L>His Candle is Light, and He will not under</L>
<L>A Bu&s;hel put it, Let the World wonder:</L>
<L>Though he be traduced by &s;uch like Tools,</L>
<L>As have Knaves Hearts lack Brains are Fools.</L></Q></P>
