SEA SICKNESS,

but of that we will not vouch, never having crossed the
" briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro-
prietors of
PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMERS

take the hint i And although it may not produce that " con-
summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we are, its
grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent
restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer
from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate,
and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence,
improves by age.
LE GRAND GOURMAND
will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and
Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his
biscuit over a glass of it, will be constrained to eulogise this
incomparable Liqueur.
" Come and try,
Don't like—don't buy,"
is an old saying and a good one; and as in matters of taste
every man is the best jAulge, this invitation is given in the full
assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the
palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst
the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

Shortness of Breath, Weazing, Colds, soreness, tight-
ness, and oppression of the Chest ; and most affections of the
Chest and Lungs, relieved in ten minutes, by taking one dose
of WOODHOUSE'S BALSAM OF SPERMACETI, or PECTORAL
COUGH DROPS. Persons doubting of the efficacy of this
Medicine, may take a dose in the Proprietor's shop before
they purchase. The Proprietor earnestly recommends a
trial of these Drops to persons afflicted with the above com-
plaints, but he does not introduce them as beillg'an infallible
cure, (as many do,) but is warranted in asserOg their efficacy
from the extensive relief afforded in numgfous cases of the
above description. Constitutional Coughs of three, four,
and more years standing, have been cured in the course of
a week by the use of these Drops. In the Hooping and
Chin Coughs it will be found equally valuable ; it will at all
times relieve the most violent Consumptive Cough.—ln
