RECOMMENDED BY THE FACULTY.
OXON'S EFFERVESCENT MAG-
- NESIAN APERIENT, for Bilious Affections,
Heart-burn, Costiveness, Gravel, ticc. This unique Pre-
paration unites the active medicinal properties of the most
efficient Saline Purgatives, with all the agreeableness of a
eal. of Soda Water ; the disengagement of the Carbonic
Acid Gasp during the exhibition, renders it peculiarly
grateful to the Stomach, correcting Nausea and Sickness.
It t.
,43 been found of great service by several individuals
.I!ct to attacks of the Gout, for allaying Irritation, cor-
rceting Acidity,and abating Fever. As a Cooling Purga-
tive for Children, it is peculiarly acceptable from its agree-
able taste, and no less so as an adjunct to a Mercurial Pill
over night. A Dose taken early in the morning will re-
store the tone of the Stomach, and allay those febrile
tYmptoms consequent on indulging too freely in the luxuries
of e table. Its portableness and the convenience with
!bleb it is mixed recommend it to the attention of all
Travellers, particularly those visiting or residing in hot
ates. It has obtained the sanction of several distin-
r'sbed members of the Faculty, and has been denominated
"Y a most respectable Practitioner at Chester, " the best,
"d mildest, and pleasantest Purgative he ever took."
