UNDER ROYAL PATRONAGE,

BEWLEY, FISHER, AND CO.'S
CONCENTRATED ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER,
—This preparation contains, in a highly concentrated state, an
Without the addition of any more heating stimulant, all the car-
Minative and restorative properties of this usoful and grateful aro -
matte, separated from the ligneous fibre which constitutes the bulk
of the root. As few stomachs are able to bear a sufficient quantity
of the powder to produce the desired effect, BEWLEY, FISHER, an,
CO. conceive this form of exhibition the most convenient, when
taken in water, tea, beer, wine, &c. ; or for combination with other
Medicine, ten drops being equal to eight grains of the powder. It is
recom,nended to persons of Phlegmatic, Gouty, Dyspeptic, and Ner-
vous habits. Its beneficial effects are quickly diffused througho t
the whole system, relieving cramps, spasms, flatulency, pain, and
sense of oppressi alter meals, and restoring the tone of the
stomach. Its utility is also manifested as an adjunct to other medi-
cines, and in correcting the chill which soda and other aerated or
Mineral waters give the stomach, as well as in adding to their tonic
Property.
In bottles at 2s. 6d. and 45., prepared by BEWLEY, FISHER,
said Co., 64, Dame-stre..t; Dublin. Also their Anodyne Lettuce
Lozenges, for coughs, colds, asthma, and affections of the chest.
Doctor Duncan, of Edinburgh, and other leading members of the
Profession, have strongly recommended Lactucarium (the in‘pis
Bated juice of the garden Lettuce) as possessing peculiarly soothing
and quieting properties in the above complaints, and especially in
the troublesome cough attendant on consumption. To in-rease its
efficacy, Bewley, Fisher, and Co. have combined it with hippo and
demulcents, and have adopted the form of a lozenge as being the
Most agreeable mode for its administration.
