DION'S celebrated CORDIAL. BALM of GILEAD,
which is peculiarly efficacious in all Inward Wastings, Loss of
Appetite, Indigestion. Depression of Spirits, Trembling or Shak-
ing of the Hands or Limbs, Shortness of Breath, and Consump-
tive Habits. It enriches the Blood, eases the most violent Pains in
the Heal and Stomach, anti promotes gentle Perspiration. By the
nobility and gentry this Medicine is much admired, being pleasant
to the taste and smell, gently astringing the fibres oldie stomach,
and giving that proper tone which a good digestion requires. No-
thing can be better adapted to help and nourish the constitution
when broken by habitual debauch with wine, &e. This Cordial is
highly esteemed in the East and West Indies, for nourishing and
invigorating the nervous system. and acting as a general restorative
un debilitated constitutions, arising from bilious complaints con-
tracted in hot climates.
It is a most valuable remedy for such diseases as are attended
with the following symptoms, namely—n great straitness of
the breast, with difficulty of breathing, palpitations of the heart,
sudden flushes t,f heat in various parts of the body ; at other times
a sense of cold, as it' water was poured on them ; flying pains in the
arms and limbs, back and belly, resembling those occasioned by
the gravel; the pulse very variable, sometimes uncommonly slow,
at other times very trick ; yawning, hiccough, frequent sighing,
and a sense of suffocation, as from a ball or lump in the throat ;
alternate fits of crying and convulsive laughing; the sleep unsound
and seldom refreshing, and the patient often troubled with horrid

dreams.
Aluch has been said by interested individualsersinat Medicines
that are advertised ; but the great efficacy of the Cordial Balm of
Gilead is demonstrated by its gentle operation, and its control
over the muerte of debility ; hence its unexampled demand. •
