DR. DE JONGH'S

LIGHT BROWN COD LIVER OIL.
Prescribed with complete confidence by the Faculty for its purity,
efficacy, and marked superiority over el other kinds.

OPINION of A.B. GRANVILLE, ESQ., F.R.S.,
Author of " The Spas of Germany," "The Spas of England,"
" On Sudden Death," &c. Lc. &e.

" Dr. Granville has used Dr. de Jongh's Light Brown Cod Liver
Oil extensively in his practice, and has found it not only efficacious
but uuiform in its qualities. He believes it to be preferable in
many respects to Oils sold without the guarantee of such an
authority as De Jongh. DR. GRANVILLE HAS FOUND THAT THIS
PARTICULAR RIND PRODUCES THE DESIRED EFFECT IN A SHORTER
TINE TEAS OTHERS, AND THAT IT DOES NOT CAUSE THE NAUSEA
AND INDIGESTION TOO OFTEN CONSEQUENT ON THE ADMINISTRA-
TION or THE PALE NEWFOUNDLAND On.s. The Oil being, more-
-I,,er, much more palatable, Dr. Oranville's patients have
themselves expressed a preference for Dr. de Jongh'e Light
Brown Oil."
