THE SCOTTISH HIGHLAND OIL is immediately obsorbed into the Blood, chanff ing its dull black huo into a brilliant red, pos sessing a delicate nervous force, which may be felt as a tremulous motion in the muscles, which often instantly relieves a great many painful disorders, which render life unbearable. POTTIES SCOTTISH OIL Will be found invaluable in nearly every in stance, and for colonial uso, is one of the best Medicines ever introduced, especially in the following cases: — TRAVELLERS, who have to shift from bed to bed. SURVEYORS, who are exposed to bush vermin day and night. SHOOTING PARTIES, exposed to the tor ments of the tick. Members of Cricket, Rowing, and Football Clubs, and Athletes, May with greet advantage use it for the muscles of the arms and limbs, rubbing night and morn ing. It renders those muscles clastic and tirm ; should the muscles be sore a good dressing will give immediate relief, and prevent the distres sing effects of stillness, &c. POTTIES SCOTTISH OIL. A Blight dressing night and morning will give complete immunity from fleas, mosquitoes, sand flics, ticks, and all kinds of bush vermin. The Oil when rubbed in all over the body or hands and face, dries at once, leaving a beautiful gloss on the skin, which, while it feels highly agree able, forms a perfect barricade.

Some of my friends, who have also been ÜBing these medicines, speak very favourably of them, and have received much benefit from their use.—(Signed), Ophelia "Port Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 1576. Sir,—l think it my duty to state that your Ghol lah's Rheumatism Mixture has proved in my case to be all that you have represented it to be ; and for the sake of those who may be suitering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to taking your in valuable medicine I beg to state that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony from severe Rheumatism for over two years. I could not rest at night. My appetite was gone, my general health shattered, and the pains through out my limbs and loins were constant and almost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rheu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better after taking three bottles of it. I continued taking the medicine for about six weeks, and became perfectly restored to health, being per fectly cured of all pain or symptoms of Rheuma tism. My appetite is excellent, and I sleep well at night.—Signed), Fred. Williams."

I a.m happy to state that I am now free from the pains I bad experienced for so many years. I can sleep well at night, my appetite and general health arc much improved, and 1 can attend to my business and house duties.

I am now free from all pain, and well in my health, and have the free use of my hands and feet which I had not previous to taking your medicine. I think it right to state, for the bene fit of others siillV-.ring the. tortures that I endured for the period above, stated, that I attribute my restoration to health and freedom from pain entirely to the use ol: your invaluable medicine, f can strongly recommend it those suffering from rheumatism or gout.—(Signed), John Gbiffen, J.P."
