Powder for the Stone and Gravel in the Kidnies
An 18th century remedy is advertised for dissolving kidney stones and gravel with a powder sold by Mr Weekly the Tobacconist near St Donstan's Church Fleet Street and by Mrs Garway at the Royal Exchange Gate Cornhill. It claims to expel stones, reduce humps in urine vessels, and gather sand and gravel into one stone. Also announces property to let and books for sale with pricing and locations. Includes testimonial letters about medical tinctures and other publishing notices.
