A REAL BLESSING TO MOTHERS.
THERE is not, perhaps, in the whde Materia Medics
any one remedy which so effectually relieves the pain of •
suffering patient u the AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP.
Who can watch the writhing tortures into which • lovely infant is
often convulsed during the period of dentition without feeling
sympathy for its sufferings? And who would hesitate to procure a
remedy, when &remedy can be found, which is obvious by the ef-
rectos' relief afforded in no many distressing cues which are daily
coming to the notice of Mrs. JOHNSON ? Therefore. Mothers
ought never to. he without the AMERICAN SOOTHING
SYRUP in the Nursery ; for if a child awakes in the night with
pelts, by only rubbing the gums with a few drops of the Syrup, it
will immediately open the pores, heal the gums, and thereby
prevent fevers and convulsions; for should it come in compe-
tition with soy other disorder, it often destroys the mother's
brightest hopes.
To be had, wholesale and retail, of JOHNSON snd Co. 28,
York-place, City-road ; and, by their appointment, of all prin.
cipal Medicine Venders in town and country, at 2a. 9d. per bottle.
N.B. Nowise rosins, onion signed on the Stamp with am
Johnson's own bantl.writing, so there are several spurious sorts. '
