A MARVELLOUS REMEDY!
FOR A MARVELLOUS AGEI!!
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.
THE GRAND EXTERNAL REMEDY.

By the aid 01;rnicroscope, we see millions of little openings on
the surface of our bodies. Through these this Ointment, when
rubbed on the skin, is carried to any organ or inward part.
Diseases of the Kidneys, disorders of the Liver, affections of the
Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Astinnas, Coughs and Colds,
are by its means effectually cured. Every housewife knows that
salt passes freely through bone or meat of any thickness. This
healing Ointment far more readily penetrates through any bone
or fleshy part of the living body, curing the most dangerous in-
ward complaints, that cannot be reached by other means.
ERYSIPELAS, RHEUMATISM AND SCORBUTIC HUMOURS.
Na remedy has ever done so much for the cure of diseases of
the Skin, whatever form they may assume, as this Ointment.
Scurvy, Sore Heads, Scrofula, or Erysipelas, cannot long with-
stand its influence. The inventor has travelled over many parts
of the globe, visiting the principal hospitals, dispensing this Oint-
ment, giving advice as to its application, and has thus been the
means of restoring countless numbers to health.
SORE LEGS, BAD BREASTS, WOUNDS AND ULCERS.
Some of the most scientific surgeons now rely solely on the use
of this wonderful Ointment, when having to cope with the worst
cases of sores, wounds, ulcers, glandular swellings, and tumours.
Professor Holloway has dispatched to the East large shipments
of this Ointment, to be used in the worst cases of wounds. It
will cure any ulcer, glandular swelling, stillness or contraction of
the joints, even of 20 years' standing.
