The English Oils contain no Opium or other poisonous

can Herbs, together with Medicinal Gums, which render
them perfectly safe In all cases requiring an outward anpli-

Testinionialfrom a Lady living near Brierley Hill.
She says—Your English Oils are worth a Guinea a Bottle.
I purchased a is lid bottle from you, and had very little
hopes of receiving any relief as I had tried so many differ-
ent things, and was still getting worse instead of better.
My nights were very bad, not closing my eyes to sleep for
hours together, neither could I turn myself in bed without
assistance; but after using a little of your English Oils I
had a comfortable night's rest; and in the morning, to the
astonishment of myself and family, was able to rise from my
I bed and dress myself without any assistance, which I had
not been able to do for many weeks before. I shall recoil]
mend the English Oils whenever I have an opportunity, and
shall be happy te state my ease to any respectable person ;
but in consequence of my family connection should not
wish my name to appear in the public papers.
Mrs. Marlow, Level Street, Brierley Hill, was witness to
the abovo Testimonial, being.present when the lady called.
