TESTIMONIAL FROM The late DR. JONATILUIT PEREIRA., Professor at the University of London, Author of" The Elements of Materia Medics and Therapeutics," "My dear Sir-1 was very glad to find from you, when I had the pleasure of seeing you in London, that you were interested commercially in Cod Liver Oil. It was fitting that the Author of the best analysis and investigations into the properties of this Oil should himself be the Purveyor of this important medicine. " 1 feel, however, some diffidence in venturing to fulfil your request by giving you my opinion of the quality of the oil of which you gave me a sample ; because 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. " I can, however, have no hesitation about the propriety of re sponding to your application. 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 eatiafied that for medicinal purposes no finer oil can be procured. " With my best wishes for your success, believe me, my dear Sir, to be very faithfully yours, (Signed) "JONATHAN PEREIRA, " Finsbury-square, Lundun, April 16, 1611. FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HE ALTH.— "For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province of Winehmore-hill, Middlesex) I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine, and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health, which I attribute to Framp ton's pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is In general use by my family. and we know of nothing to equal it."
