DE JONGR'S LIGHT BROWN COD LIVER OIL. " Much of the Pale 011 sold in the market is found to be nothing more than Skate 011—a fact which will account for the failures which have so frequently attended the use of the so called Cod Liver 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 procured by him enjoys also the additional sanction of the opinion of Baron Liebeg and the late Dr. Pereira in favour of its genuineness and efficacy. Our own experience practically confirms their judg ment, and WE UNHESITATINGLY RECOMMEND DR. DE Jottott's LIGHT-BROWN COD LIVER OIL Ad THE BEST FOR MEDICINAL PURPOSES, AND WELL DESERVING THE CONFIDENCE OF THE PROFESSION." DR. DE JONGH'S COD LIVER OIL Has now, in consequence of its marked superiority over every other variety, secured the entire confidence and almost universal preference of the most eminent Medical Practitioners as the moat speedy and effectual remedy for CONSUMPTION, BRONCHITIS, ASTHMA, GOUT, RHEUMATISM, SCIATICA, DIABETES, DISEASES OF THE SKIN, NEURALGIA, RICKETS, INFANTILE WASTING, GENERAL DEBILITY, AND ALL SCROFULOUS AFFECTIONS.
