EXTRACTS FROM MEDICAL AND SCIENTIFIC TESTIMONIALS : "THE LANCET," July 20, Inc " In the preference of the light brown over the pale oil we fully ooncur. We have carefully tested a specimen of the light brown eod.liver oil prepared fur medical use under the direction of Dr. de dough, and obtained from the wholesale agents, Messrs. AMUR, HARVORD, lied 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 cholinki acid, bilifellinie acid, and other elements of bile, 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 hint enjoys also the additional sanction of the opinion of Baron Liebig an i 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 service to science by your researches. and your efforts to provide sufferers with this meth. eine, in its purest and most genuine state, must ensure you ch. gratitude of every one who stands in need of its use."
