Wolfe's Schnapps is now occupying the place held in past years by inferior brands of geneva, the medical profession testifying to its excellence over these and other adulterated spirits, including French brandy, in no ess than • TEN THOUSAND LETTERS, which aro in tho possession of the manufacturer, aU certifying to its perfect purity and marked superiority over every other stimulant as a diuretic, tonic, and restorative. ••','. The Resident Physician of the Sydney Infirmary says :—" I have no hesitation in stating that I consider your Schnapps a most exceUent stimulant and diuretic." The Government Analytical Chemist, Melbourne, says :—As a sample of hollands gin, Ido not think it can be surpassed. It may be recommended for uso in hospital and private practice as a good aromatic stimulant." ' ■ CAUTION.

THE CURE IS AT HAND. TXOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT Scorbutic Eni.pti(ms,'as Sore Heads and Scrofulovi Swellings.— lf this powerful Ointment be well rubbey into the parts affected all "skin disease will he speedild overcome. It acts not by repression, but repulsion. It enters the system as salt enters meat, and operates not locally only, but constitutionally purifying the whole system, neutralizing all depraved humours, and effecting a radical and complete cure. The Pllli should be taken as an auxiliary to the Ointment, as they are so prepared as to act in unison with it, facilitating and confirming the conquest of the disease Diptheria, Ulcerated Sore Throat and Quinsey.— The above complaints have for twenty years been treated with HoUoway's Ointment and Pills with perfect success. The cures have been so remarkable, speedy, and numerous, that these often fatal diseases are mora easily cured by these medicines than even the common sore throat, if taken in time. The Kidneys, Stone and Gravel. —ln these complaints the Ointment almost acts like a charm pro viding it is very effectually rubbed over the regions of the kidneys, which it will penetrate and give almost immediate relief, while the Pills should be taken according to the printed directions, when the most extraordinary cures may be effected by this means. Bad Legs, Bad Breasts, Scrofulous Sores, And Glandular Swellings.— ln such cases the Ointment operates surely and with a rapidity that resembles magic.
