MURRAY'S FLUID MAGNESIA.

HERBERT MAYO, Esq., the eminent Surgeon of the
Middlesex Hospital, has expressed his high approbation of
MURRAY'S FLUID MAGNESIA, as follows :
I am very ready to allow you to use my name and testi-
mony to the efficacy of your Condensed Spion of Magnesia.
It is by far the best form in which th edicine has been
prepared for use—the Magnesia being perfectly dissolved in
your preparation, never irritates the Stomach, and is not liable
to accumulate in the Bowels, as occasionally happens when
the Medicine is taken in the ordinary form. From profes-
sional indications of so much usefulness as this, I think it
but just not to withhold my public recommendation, which
I have not before given in favour of any remedy, although I
frequently see my name falsely used for this purpose.
" HERBERT MAYO."
