The astonishing success which has crowned the application of this external Medicine in the most hopeless and deplorable cases, when the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining even the least relief, and this after the ablest advice and every other means had completely failed, most justly entitles it to the attention of the afflicted. This excellent Medicine, so universally esteemed, is unat. tended with the least danger or inconvenience, and - hundreds have experienced its happy and salutary effects since it was first introduced. Amongst many which are being daily recei are the follow- ing testimonies 4.

EXPERIENCE teaches us that the beneficent pro- ductions of the earth, are themselves sufficient for man's earthly good, especially when rightly directed, and adopted in accordahce with the exercise of reason. GINGER, the almost spontaneous growth of a sunny clime, offers, in his own land, its invigorating aid, to recruit the ex hausted energies of the enervated Indian; and in other quarters of the globe, nature kindly provides the luscious and grateful Orange, as the needful renovator. After . the most acute medical research, professors are corn pelted to admit, that nature herself presents the most delight ful and efficient remedies, in the temperate use of the Seville Orange and .Jamaica Ginger. By the means of commerce we are enabled to obtain these good things; and by a skilful and judicious operation, we are enabled to Offer to. the world, a com bination of these excellent remedial qualities, eminently useful in spasm, flatulence, and sensations of cold. And, indeed, for whatever purpose stimulants are required, there are none more whoesome—none 'more pure—none more efficacious, than utiERS'S GINGER BItANDY. THE ORANGE GINGERETTE highly concentrated, and so compounded as to be acceptable to the Ladies, and those to whom a stronger Liqueur is not necessary.
