HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT.—In bad legs, ulcers, scro—
fulous sores, and glandular swellings this Ointment
operates very gently, but very surely, and with a rapidity
that resembles magic. The purifying and curative-
powers of this marvellous unguent have never, been
disputed by any one who has given it a fair trial. It
contains not a particle of any noxious substance, nor is
there a case on record in which ithas done the slightest
harm ; while there are authentic reports of innumerable-
cures effected by it in all countries. It is as mild in ita
acticia al it is powerful and beneficial in ita effect,
