The loud expressions of earnest gratitude made by thousands who have experienced its unrivalled power over these com plaints, and who have been raised from prostrate helplessness and a condition loathsome to themselves and others, render it quite unneces sary to enlarge in this place upon its extraordinary virtues. The parts affected should be bathed with lukewarm water, and when the pores are thereby opened, the Ointment should be well rubbed in, at least twice a day. It is always advisable to take Holloway'a Pills in these disorders, as the action of the Ointment is thereby wonderfully enhanced. The Pills check fever, purify the blood, and eject all morbid matter engendered by diseases. Now ready, in Folio, pp. 136, price Two Guineas, THE FIRST PART OF ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE LIFE OF By J. O.
