TAYLER's

For Mouth - Ulcers.

Juice of Liquorace drunk, is good ; and so is the Juice of Souracks, if you work the Juice back and forward in your Mouth. Or, hold a Guinea in your Mouth, pro tempore, by times : This may appear as a real burlesque to you, but it has proved a Cure to many Ulcerous Disorders, by laying the Gold upon them.

                               Probatum eft.

For Nerves and Sinnews.

A Good Draught of English Porter, once a-day, for 21 Days, is as good a Cure as ever was tried, either outwardly, or inwardly.

                             Probatum Eſt.
         For Nails ill-Coloured.

TAKE of Lintfeed 3 ozs. Honey 2 ozs. and a Handful of Water Cresses, so Compound them together, and apply a little thereof as you see most proper, or as need requires.

                                    Probatum eft.

For Nits and Lice.

MIX a little Brandy and Pepper together; there- with anoint where needful. Or, use Nit-Salve. But, the first is not applicable.
