[ADVERTISEMENT.]—An Affection of the Spine
and Limbs Cured by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Mrs. Reynolds, landlady of the "William the Fourth"
Inn, St. Ives, Hunts, had been ill for 14 months with an
affection of the spine; her feet and legs were dreadfully
swollen, and she became perfectly helpless. Several
eminent physicians and surgeons attended her, under
whose care she derived no benefit, but by the recom-
mendation of Mr. Prior, druggist, Bedford, she tried
Holloway's Pills and Ointment. These fine medicines
in about nine weeks so completely restored her to health
and strength, that she is now able to resumed.the duties
of her household with ease end comfort. Sold by all
druggists, and at Professor Holloway's,Establishment
244, Strand, London.
It is proposed that the works of the Ayrshire Iron
Company should be sold, and a meeting has been called
for the lath of April to consider the proposition.
