HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PlLLS.—Extract of a letter
from Mr. J. Perkins, of Long Lawford, near Rugby, dated Feb. 11,
1855. To Professor Holloway.—Sir,—My wife suffered for four
years with a frightfully ulcerated leg, accompanied by dropsical
swellings and profuse watery discharges. She consulted several
medical men, and had recourse to a Variety of remedies, but
without deriving any benefit. At last, she tried your Ointment
and Pills, and after persevering with them for about six weeks,
the wounds on her leg entirely healed, and she was thoroughly
restored to health, a blessing quite unexpected to all her
acquaintance.

Tim possibility of abandoning medicine altogether is shown
by the numerous extraordinary cures, without medicine, of indi-
gestion (dyspepsia), flatulency, constipation, nervous, bilious, and
liver complaints, cough, asthma, consumption, and debility
effected by Du Barry's delicious health-restoring Revalenta
Arabica Food. The following are not the least remarkable : No.
42,130, " Major-General King, cure of general debility and ner-
vousness." Cure No. 28,416, " William Hunt, Esq., barrister-at-
law, 60 years' partial paralysis." No. 32,814, " aptain Allen,

granted an injunction on the 10th March, 1854, against Alfred
Hooper Nevin, for imitating "Du Barry's Rentlenta Arabica
Food." .
