THOUSANDS OF TESTIMONIALS FROM ALL PARTS.
CURE OF DROPSY
North-street, Audenshaw (near Manchester),
"January 10, 1882.
"It affords me great pleasure to add my testimony to
the wsnderful effects of your Blood Mixture, which
has cured me of a very bad ulcerated fcot and ankle. I had
four wounds which prevented me from following my
occupation for four years, during which time I have
been in five different infirmaries and under fifteen
different doctors. I was at last induced to try your
Blood Mixti re, and after taking three small bottles I
was able to go to work, and by the time I had taken
nine or ten bottles I was completely cured. lake
whatever use you like of this, for the benefit of other
sufferers.—I am, yours respectfully. "Joan ritt.t.talts.
IMPORTANT ADVICE TO ALL.—Cleans
the vitiated blood whenever you find Pri im
parities bursting through the skin in pimples,
eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when you find
it obstructed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse
i when it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Keep the blood pure, and the
health of the system will follow.
As this mixture is pleasant to the taste, anal
warranted free from anythinginjurions to the
most delicate constitution of either sex, the
Proprietors solicit sufferers to give it a trial
to test its value.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
The Universal Remedy for Bad Legs
Bad Breasts, Old Wounds, and
Ulcerations of all kinds.
There is no medicinal preparation which may be so
shoroughly relied upon in the treatment of the above ail-
ments as Holloway's Ointment. Rubbed upon the surface
of the body, over, or near the affected parts, it disappears
under the friction of the hand, penetrating at once to the
source of the evil, and thus performs its healing errand
rapidly, safely, and without pain. In all long standing
oases, Holloway's Pills should also be taken as they purify
he Blood and expel all depraved humours from the system
Coughs, Colds, Sore Throats, and
Bronchitis.
This Ointment is irresistible in the cure of these throat and
pectoral complaints, which when neglected often end in
seStled Asthma or Consumption. The Ointment well
rubbed upon the Chest and back, night and morning
penetrates the skin, and thus absorbed, is carried directly
to the Lungs, where, in immediate contact with the whole
mass of circulating Blood, it neutralizes or expels all im-
burities. By these means all pulmonary complaints may
e cured with rapidity and ease.
Disorders of the Kidneys, and Stone
Gravel.
n any of the above complaints more benefit may be
