V 824 4 Medical f\ N E WORD. Diab Fbiihds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you m the manner fol- lowirjg, bnt hope that it will not be ** looked at m any invidious light, when we state that it is only bur kegard for your ■ health that causes us to do It. We have I' been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long |t course of this time manufactured certain t* Medicines that being based on soientlno formula and absolnte care and precision ■ m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaoenti* • oal Preparations of the day. How suo- *• oeesful we have been In this, is only to oote the extraordinary amount of the »* calei of our Haydook > New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook's ■ New Liver Pills. The reason of this de- mand Is because we find m Haydook' • New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra f * ordinary combination of oonoentrated medicine. The Vlotories of Science— » Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing , — revolutionised the whole system of the • globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- *" ter. So, although there are oountless Pills used for diseases and claiming muoh 1 as to their merit, the remarkable dls- ** oovery of Dr Haydook has eolipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys* I tern. TheDootots, whose vast doses of four 01 five pills enfeeble the stomach >' and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite ! i with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dt Hay- -1 dock's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m perfect order oreates an • appetite, and renders the spirit light and 1 bnoyant. If the Liver is affected its f unc- tions are restored, and if the Nervous ■ System is enfeebled, It Is invigorated and • sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.

" Dear Sir,— l bare, ?s yon are deafctless aware, used your Horse Medicines for tke last three or foQr years, and have found then \ rery valuable. In my opinion your Colfc Driftks, Worm Powders, and Hoof Oil Cansot be surpassed* " I have great pleasure m recommendiag your medicines to all horse proprietors. "Enclosed please find order for 18 dozen assorted medicines. " I am, dear sir, j 11 Yours faithfully, ;"S. Smith, Manag*. 1 ' F. FERBIMAN, AGENT. EVERY MAN CAN BE HIS OWN HORSE DOCTOR, By using SLESINGER'S PREPARATIONS, As detailed below. FOR HORSES: THE Colic or Gripe Drink.— -Hors«s are very liable to Colic or Gripe, and, if, eglected, this complaint may m a few hours erminate m inflammation, strangulation, wvmpanitis, and death. This Colic Draught will give relief m less than twe hours, and often within ten minutes. The Embrocation.— For ihe treatment of Cuts Wounds, Bruises from Saddle, Girths, or Harness, Sore Shoulders, Strains, Spryins, Rheumatism, Windfalls, Swellings, etc* If either of these injuries or complaints be ne- glected for a few hours, they may take weeks to cure. The Condition Powders.— For restoring amd keeping the Horse m good health, relieving Hide-bound, Surfeit, Mange, Grease, and Skin Eruptions, correcting a diseased state of the Stomach, Bowels, Kidney*, Bladder, Liver, etc. The Worm Powders.— The Horse is very subject to Worms, frequently unsuspected by the owner. Thousands of Horses die for the want of these Powdery and the owner is none ihe wiser for it ; and, unless a post atcrUm examination is raa^e, does not know that his Horse suffered from these reptiles. On all occasions, wheu the animal ii poor, m lew condition, hide-bound, or occasionally passing j a worm, give one of taese PowJers night and morning, as directed on each tin. The Blister Gin ment is superior to any other. After usinjj it, he hair retains to ita natural color, and, unlike any other, &• blemish is left. The Hoof Oils.— Tire chief cause of Lame- ness m Horses is some injury or defect m the Foot, which may cause inflammation ef the Foot, and bring on other diseases, such as inflammation of the Bowels, Kidneys, Lungs, - These Oils, if used m time, w.Il prevent or cure brittle Hoofs, Saadcracks, Contrac. tion, Qnittor, Caiker. Corns, Thrust cr Frush, Narrow Heels, Hoof-bound, Naricular Joint Disease, etc., all of which the hor:e is subject to, and is liable to fall and endanger the life of his rider. This may be avoided by using this Oil d*ily, or two or three times a week. The Grease Ointment. — For tne cure of Grease, Crown Scabs, Rat-tail, Mallchders and SallendeTs, or any Skin Eruption. DOG MEDICINES: The Distemper Powders are a Perfect Cure, and may also be given m other ailment* The Mange Ointments.— May be used for flic Mange or any other Inflammatory Disea«es of the Skia m the Horse or Dog, It may be mixed with four times its quantity of Neatsfoot Oil, being easer «f application. By keeping a supply on hand, which rtwt« but very 1 . XV.c, you cm. cure your Horses yourself w .tnout the aid of a Veterinary Sur- geon. N.B — Age docs not affect the strength or quality of either medicine, t^All The medicines are sold by F. FEBBIMAN, EAST STREET, ASHBURTOM, Sole Agent. SLESINGEB'S Rheumatic Balsam. THE greatest discovery ever yet made for the relief of human sufferers from Mus- cular or Nervous Affecion is SLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. Of all the advertised remedies and all the prescriptions from the medical faculty for the cure of Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, Scia- tica, Tic Douloureux, Neuralgia, Lumbago, Strains or Sprains, Chilblains, or pains of any son from the above affections, none hate be«n so successful and effectual as aLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. And why ? you will ask. Because there is no nonsense about it. You are not asked to swallow so many pills or so many spoonfuls of mixture or draughts, 2, 3, or 4 times a day, or every other day ; or to use hot, cold, shower, or Turkish Bath* ; or to take or avoid this, that, or the other food ; or to drink only such and such fluid, and not to drink anything else j or to tike such and such exercise, etc., etc. No ! Slesinger's Rheumatic Balsam acquires no such stipulation I Eat and drink accord incj to your own good sea c, and if you onlr use the Balsam as directed on eack bottle, m one day, and even m less time, or after one or two applications, you are relieved from your pain and sufferings, and you will Wess the invent' r of the BAL6A.V. Fwthermore, you are net asked to repeat the dose, that <s to say, to buy another bottle or another box of pills. No I nothing of the sort is wanted, One bottle, although small m appearance, but large m its effect, is qii''te sufficient m the worst of cases, and often rrom 20 to roo drops, according to the surface of the complaint, is sufficient for a cure. CERTIFICATE. , Moray Place. Duoedin. Mr Slesinger, V.S., He-pc Street. Dear Sir,- I have much pleasure m report* ing to you thai, after having used your Rheu. matic Balsam m cases of Neuralgia, Acute, and Chronic Rheumatics, 1 have found It really a useful remedy. I have, therefore, no hesitation m recom- mending the same for the abovementioned cases.— Yours, etc., C. N. Reimer, Surgeon. F. FJE&BIMAtf,
