EXTRACTS FROM MEDICAL Alm SCIENTIFIC TESTIMONIALS , • "THE LANCET," July 29, 1864. "In the preference of the light brown over the pale oil we fully concur. We have carefully tested a specimen of the light brown cod.liver oil prepared for medical use uhder the direction of Dr. de Jongh, and obtained from the wholesale agents, Messrs. ANBAR, RARSORD, end C0.,77, Strand. We find it to be genuine, and rich in iodine and the elements of bile." "THE MEDICAL CIRCULAR," May 10, 1854. " The pale oil, even when genuine, is deficient to a consider able extent, if not wholly, of the volatile fatty acid, iodine, phos phate of chalk, the chollnic acid, bilifellinic acid, and other elements of bill, which are found in their normal proportions in the light brown oil. The utmost reliance may be placed upon the experimental researches of Dr. de Jongh, who is one of the most eminent of European chemists; the oil prepared by him enjoys also the additional sanction of the opinion of Baron Liebig and the late Dr. Pereira, in favour of its genuineness and efficacy. Our own experience practically confirms their judg ment, and we unhesitatingly recommend the light brown oil as the best for medicinal purposes, and well deserving the confi dence of the profession. " BARON LIEBIG. " You have rendered an essential set vice to science by your researches, and your efforts to provide vufferers with this meth. tine, in its purest and most genuine state, must ensure you the gratitude of every one who stands in need of its use." OR. JONATHAN PEREIRA. " I know that nu 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, whe ther considered with reference to its coluur, flavour, or ehemica properties ; and I am satisfied that for medicinal purposes no finer oil can be procured."
