TESTIMONIAI. FROM
ARTHUR H. HASSALL, M.D., F L.S.,
Member of the Royal College of Physicians,
Physician to the Royal Free Hospital,
Author of " Food and its Adulterations," &o, &o.
" Deer Sir—l beg to return my acknowledgments for the copy
of your Work on Cod Liver Oil, with which you have favoured
me. I was already acquainted with it, and had perused it some
time previously with considerable gratification, especially the
chapter devoted to the consideration of the adulteration of Cod
Liver Oil.
" I have paid, as you are aware, much attention to the subject
of the adulteration of drugs. Amongst the articles examined, I
have not overlooked one so important as Cod Liver Oil, and this
more particularly since Rho a very favourite remedy with me, and
Is, moreover, so liable to deterioration by admixture with other,
erpecially inferior Fish Oils. I may state that I have more than
once, at diderent times, subjected your Light Brown Oil to the-
inioal analysis, and this unknown to yourself, and I have always
found it to be free from all impurity, and rich in the constituents
of bile.
" So great Is my confidence In the article, that I usually pre-
scribe it in preference to any other, in order to make sure of ob-
tain:llg the remedy it its purest and beat condition.
" I remain, yours faithfully,
(Signed) " ARTHUR H. HASSALL, M.D.,
