[ADVERTISEMENT.]--A most awful Wound Cured
by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—George- Morris, a
mechanic, of Newport, was for months rendered totally
unable to work, or even move about the house, from
the effects of a dreadful abscess which had formed in his
thigh, and which had been repeatedly lanced, under the
advice of various surgeons; ultimately he was admitted
into the hospital, from whence, after the best medical
skill, had been tried, he was dismissed as incurable. Yet,
to the astonishment of all, this dreadful bad wound was
soundly healed by the use of Holloway's Ointment and
Pills, a supply of which was kindly presented to him by
the minister of his parish. Sold by all druggists, and
at Professor Holloway's establishment, 244,
London.
