Excerpt from Directions for Invigorating and Prolonging Life, or the Invalid's Oracle: Containing Peptic Precepts, Pointing Out Agreeable and Effectual Methods to Prevent and Relieve Indigestion, and to Regulate and Strengthen the Action of the Stomach and Bowels
The editor of the last London edition, who, it appears, is the son of the author, tells us that above ten thousand copies of the 'directions for Invigorating and Prolonging Life' have been sold in England! And that it was a source of much gratification to the author, that a work on which he had bestowed so much pains, and to which he had dedicated so large a portion of time, should have met with such encouragement.
