DE JQijTGKIi'S LIGHT BROWN COD LIVER OIL, Prepared for Medicinal Use in the Loffoden Isles, Norway, and put to the test of Chemical Analysis. THIS pure and unadulterated transparent Light-Brown COD LI V[■'R OIL, long known and justly approciated on the Continent, has now acquired the general confidence of the Medical profession in this country, by whom it has been extensively and successfully pre- scribed, and with almost immediate and remarkably beneficial results—in many instances where ordinary Cod Liver Oil had been copiously, though ineffectually, ad- ministered. Being invariably and carefully submitted to chemical analysis-and supplied in bottles, to winch are affixed stamped Uupisules and Label', with the signature of DR. DE JONGH attached, so as to preclude anlj subsequent admixture or adulte- ration—the physician and the patient may alike rely upon a genuine medicine, and, so far as is possible, anticipate a uniform, regular, and certain result. EXTRACTS FROM MEDICAL TESTIMONIALS. The late JONATHAN PEREIRA, M.D., F.R.S.E., F.L S. Professor at the University of London, Author of "The Elements of Materia Medica and Therapeutics," &c., &c. I know that no one can be better, and few so well acquainted with the physical and chemical properties of this medicine as yourself, whom I regard as the highest authority on the subject. The oil which you gave me was of the very finest quality, whether considered with reference to its colour, flavour, or chemical properties and I am satisfied that for medicinal purposes no finer oil can be produced." ARTHUR H. HASSALL, M.D., F.L.S., Member of the Royal College of Physicians, Physician to the Royal Free Hospital, Chief Analyst of the Sanatory Commission of the Lancet, Author of "Food and its Adulterations," &c., &c. I have more than once, at different times, subjected your Light-Brown Cod Liver Oil to chemical analysis-and this unknown to yourself-an(I I have always found it to be free from all impurity, and rich in the constituents of bile. So great is my confidence in the article, that I usually pre- scribe it in preference to any other, in order to make sure of obtaining the remedy in its purest and best condition."

TTA L SUPPORTABLE GALVANIC JLL A< PARATUSES Price £ 5 5s. and jElO lO.s.—Para- lysis, Asthma, Indigestion. Spermatorrhoea.—Galvanism.— A Word to Invalids.— Health is the greatest worldly blessing we can enjoy; and yet many invalids, for the sake of saving a guinea, will purchase apparatuses which are entirely useless for medical purposes. Gal- vanism, they say, is galvanism, no matter whether the price of the apparatus be much or little. They may as well say that a fiddle is a fiddle, and that there is no difference in them. Surely no one of common sense, who feels desirous of testing the remedial powers of Galvanism, I will, for the sake of a guinea, throw his money away, by purchasing an imperfect instead of a perfect apparatus. He I may as well not try Galvanism at nil, aa try with an ineffi- cient apparatus. These latter remarks I address particularly to invalids but how much stronger do they apply to medical men who are applying galvanism They find it fail of pro- ducing those wonderful effects which I have found it to produce. And why is it ? Simply because they are using an imperfect apparatus. Scarcely a day passes but I receive an order for my.galvanic apparatus from medical men, who have been using the small machines, and found them useless. Iconclude by stating, that if medical men employ Galvanism at all in their practice, they are bound, both in duty to them- selves and to their patients, to use the apparatus in its perfect form. The prices are as above. The cash to accom- pany the order.—William Hooper Halse, Walpole Lodge (No. 51), Finchley-road, St. John's Wood, London. Mr. Halse recommends patients residing in the country to pur- chase one of his portable apparatuses, as with his instruc- tions, they will be enabled to apply the Galvanism themselves l without the least pain, and fully as effectively as he could at his own residence.

SIR,—I have great pleasure in forwarding to you the enclosed. The heartfelt gratitude of Mr Eity is beyond my power to desciibe. Yours respectfully, 13, Whitcfriargate, C. L. METCALFE. Hull, Jan. 31, 1835. 26th January, 1855. DEAR Stu,—I must acknowledge to you the very gjeat relief I have derived from the use of Ulair's Gout and Rheumaiic Pills the first two boxes of which I purchased at your establishment whilst suffering from a severe attack of Sciatica and Lumbago, for the cure of which I had visited Harrogate, Buxton. and a celebrated cold water cure establishment, without the desired benefit. Having been a resident for upwatds of twenty years in the East Indies, and being about to return, I cannot leave without expressing my gratitude for the benefit I have received from the use of this inestimable medicine. To Mr. C. L. Metcalfe. 1 beg to remain, dear Sir, Chemist, Hull. Yours truly, C. ETTY. Mr. \V.TAYLOR, Bookseller, Warminster, NVilts, writes —" Wm Penny, of Corton, Wilts, was afflicted with Rheumatism to such an extent that he could not move hand or foot; he was recommended by a gentlemr.n to try Blair's Pills, and accordingly procured a box at Mr. Tarlor's, from which he derived so much benefit, that he sent for another, which effected a complete cure." MR. WILLIAM COURTNEY, of Barton Stacey, Hant3, says Having suffered much from Gout, I had resort to Blair's Pills, and within two hours I was quite easy. The use of these Pills ought really to be known all over the world." These Pills require neither attention nor confinement, and are certain to prevent the disease attacking any vital part; and in consequence of the great and increasing demand for this useful Medicine, the Proprietor has ob- tained permission from Her Majesty's Commissioners of Stamps to have the name and address of "THOMAS PROUT, 229, Strand, London," impressed upon the Government Stamp affixed to each Box of the genuine Medicine.—Sold by all Vendors of Medicine.
