TOZEAU'S COPAHINE MEGE.—Copaiba and
Cubebs are doubtless the best remedies, but are of a re-
pulsive taste and odour, and occasion collicky pains, nausea,
and gastric disturbance. M. Jozeau has succeeded in render-
ing them perfectly innocuous by increasing all their curative
properties. It has been adopted by the Paris Academy of
Medicine after more than a thousand trials in Paris and the
different London hospitals, viz., St. Thomas's, Guy's, and
St. Bartholomew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland,
and Legros Clark.---(Lancet, Nov. 6, 1557). The Copahine,
which is in form of a pretty pink sugar plum, effects a onre in
about six days. 100 Capsules, 4s. 6d.; post free, ss. 2d.— At

:note digestion, and strengthen the whole nervous system.
