The well merited celebrity of Dr. de Jongh's Oil is attested by its extensive use in France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, and Italy, by numerous spontaneous testimonials from eminent mem bers of the faculty and scientific chemists of European reputation, 1 and since its introduction into this country, by the marked confi- I nence, as well as {rreat success, with which it has been prescribed n by medical practitioners. i In many instances where other kinds of Cod Liver Oil have rH«tl~rLfW .'j'j?1110 benefit, it has produced mostimme- diate relief, arreted disease, and restored health.
