In Bartholomew-Close , at the Signe of the Red-Ball , with Two Black Posts at the Door , near unto Smithfield-gate , lives an Expert Operator ; who ,

BY the Blessing of God , in his many years Travels , and large Experience in Forreign Countries , hath attained to many Rare Secrets in Physick , by which he hath performed wonderful Cures on many hundreds of People : There never was more Pretenders to Cure the POX , than there is now : But Friends , have a care how you fall into the hands of such Ignorant pretenders ; for if they once but get you into their Clutches , they will use you as unmerciful , as they are unskilful . Therefore be not ashamed to seek help in time ; come to me ; for the Disease is soon Cured by him that hath the right way ( if you use him ) ; for he is not one that cures a Clap by chance , or keeps you Physicking Months together .

He Cureth the Gonorrhaea , or Running of the Reins , i● newly contracted , in a Week or Ten Days ; but if Rebellious or Virulent Sores , Stinking Matter , Sharp Pains , or Heat and Stoppage of Urine , he Cures in Twenty Days at Farthest : Hemorrhoids , Ragged Chaps , and Clefts in the Fundament , Pockey Swellings , and Buboes in the Groin , pains in the Back , with Nodes , Knots , or Exostices on the Head , and Shin-bones ; also Scabs , Itch , Pusles , Tettars , Ring-worms , or Breakings out of the whole Body : All which he can Cure without Fluxing or Sallivating , although never so bad , as many by good Experience can well testifie , that in three Weeks or a Month at farthest , have been restored by his Never failling Pills ; which are so faithfully prepared ; that the tenderest Patient may take them , and go about their business , without loss of time , or cause of suspition to their nearest Relation , or danger of Relapse . He likewise Cures the Stone in the Riens , or Bladder , with much ease . This Pill is the true Antidote , against the Scurvy ; The Scurvy is the cause so many Diseases are long growing , and steal upon People , then prove hard to Cure ; such lurking Diseases , few are sensible at first , but now and then taking a Dose of these Pills ; might prevent their coming , and procure Health : for that Medicine which will Cure the Scurvy ; will reach any Disease . A Dose or two of these Pills commonly Cures any small Clap , and keeps the Party from being Infected by the Disease .

These Pills , the best and cheapest of all Physick , are three Shillings a Box , and 18 Pence a Box , Sealed up with Printed Directions how to use them ; they are excellent good for Seamen to take to Sea with them ; for they keep their full Vertue for Seven Years .

He Cures the Griping of the Guts , although never so violent , in half an hours time ; and gives present ease in the Tooth-ach , in the greatest extremity of pain .

He hath likewise a Stone , which makes black or yellow Teeth as white as Ivory , in half an hours time ; a safe Powder that brings away all sorts of Worms at once , in Children or others , and clears the Body to admiration ; a Water which takes all Kedness , Pimples , or Scabs out of the Face , in two or three Days time , and leaves the Skin smooth and clean . He Cures Agues of all sorts .

A Private Lodging may be had if Desired . And his House is so private , that no notice can be taken of your coming to him ; And he will freely give his advice for nothing .

Ae is to be spoken with from 6 in the Morning , till 12 , and from 2 till 10 at Night .
