Author of " The Spas of Germany," " The Spas of England," " On Sudden Death," Ate. 4te. " Dr. Granville has used Dr. de Jongh's Light-Brown Cod Liver Oil extensively in his practice. and has found it not only aka citing, but uniform in its qualities. He believes it to be prefer able in many respects to Oils sold without the guarantee of such an authority as De Jongh. Da. GRANVILLE HAS FOUND THAT THIS PARTICULAR KIND PRODUCES THE DESIRED EFFECT IN A SHORTER TIME THAN OTHERS, AND THAT IT DOES NOT CAUSE THE NAUSEA AND INDIGESTION TOO OFTEN CONSEQUENT ON THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE PALE NEWFOUNDLAND OILS. The Oil being, moreover, much more palatable, Dr. Granville's patients have themselves expressed a preference for Dr. tie Jongh's Light• Brown Cod Liver Oil."
