OPINION Of A.B. GRANVILLE, Esq., M.D F• 11-13•9
Author of " The Spas or Germany," -The Spas of England,"
" On Sudden Death," &c. &c. &C.
"Dr. Granville has used Dr. de dough's Light Brown Cod Liver
Oil extensively in his practice, and has found it not only efficacious
but uniform iu its qualities. He believes it to be preferable in
many retTecis to Oils sold without the guarantee of such an
authority as De dough. Dd. GRANVILLE HAS POUND THAT THIS
PARTICULAR KIND PRODUCES THE DESIRED EFFECT IN A SHORTER
THIS THAN OTHERS, AND THAT IT DOES NOT CAUSE THE NAUSEA
AND INDIGESTION TOO OFTEN CONSEQUENT ON THE ADMINISTRA.
TION OF THE PALE NEWFOUNDLAND OILS. The Oil being, more-
over, much more palatable, Dr. Granville's patients have
themselves expressed a preference for Dr. de Jongb's Light
Brown Oil.
