sensation. in the stomach and bowels, &c. are •now completely
overcome by the introduction of this elegant preparation, which
is made from the pith of the finest Jamaica Ginger that is- im-
ported. This' pith (one ounce of which is-equal in strength to
four ounces of powdered Jamaica Ginger) undergoes a tedious
chemical process, by which alone the whole of its active princi-•
plea can be separated;- and is now offered to the public in the
very desirable form of a Concentrated Fluid Essence.

1-ri all Nervous Complaints, and Hypochondriacal Affections,
it- is wonderfully successful, acting as a gentle stimului on the
Stomach, diffusing a. mild and cordial warmth over the whole
system; it assists Digestion,, removes- Fatulency, Pain in the
Stomach, Giddiness, Head-ache, &c. and exhilirates the spirits,
thereby averting the necessity Which too oft en 'compels Nervous
persons•to have recourse to ardent spirits, in hope• of obtaining
a temporary relief, to which practice they soon become habituated,
and .the fatal results are too well known to require-repetition.
In this preparation they will experience all the relief afforded
by such baneful practices; unattended by their subseque.nt in-
jurious effects. •
For Gout orßheuinatism,.both as a preventive and remedi,
this'Essence stands unequalled. •
As an outward application, the Essence•of Ginger is particu-
larly serviceable. In Chronic Rheumatism, Lumbago, &c. Where
the pain is usually confined to particular-joints; attended with
great stiffness; and an almost total lois of motionin the affected
limb—by rubbing the parts with the EsSence, and taking a tea-
spoonful three times a dayin a glass of wine and 'water, imme-
diate relief will be experiencecf,'and.the activity and vigour of
the affected part will be speedily restored.
One tea:spoonful added to a glass of;Soda,-Seidlitz, or other
Mineral Water, will prevent that -chilling sensation in the Sto--
mach; which is so often experienced by persons of debilitated
constitutions. _ _
