(The most agreeable Purgative,)
Containing in a highly-concentrated form all the active princi-
ple of Senna entirely deprived of its nauseating and griping
properties, and rendered so peculiarly pleasant to the taste,
that children will take it with a positive relish.
The extraordinary merit of this medicinal novelty has ob-
tained for it the distinguished patronage er Majesty—the
Queen Dowager—the followin,, Physic to Her Majesty and
the Queen Dowager, Sir C. 11i. Cla • , art., M.D., Dr. Fergu-
son, and Dr. Locock—Sir Davi avies, and Dr. Holland—by
many Princes, Nobles, and ilies of distinction—by most of
the eminent Physicians - edical Men in London, who have
be'n for'several years d now are, in the daily habit of pre-
scribing and recomm nding it as the best and safest domestic
aperient for females and children—the aged and delicate—the
nervous—the bilious—the habitually costive, and those suffer-
ing from piles, worms, sickness, or headache, and as being
particularly adapted for ladies during pregnancy, and children,
during dentition.
Impelled by a sense of duty, confident of conferring a great
national benefit, the Proprietor proudly submits it to the pa-
tronage of a discerning public, assured that a single trial will
convince every one of its inestimable value as a pleasant, safe,
and efficacious domestic aperient, the moderate price of which
places it within the reach of every family. Sold by all respect-
able Venders of Medicine, in bottles at Is. lad., 2s. Ed., 4s. 6d.,
11s., and 20s. each.
CAUTION.—The great celebrity this medicine has attained,
having induced many druggists in Scotland and England to
put up for sale base and worthless imitations, to the serious
injury of the original preparation, purchasers are therefore
requested to ask for Freeman's Sweet Essence of Senna, each
genuine bottle of which is signed John Freeman.

TESTIMONIAL.
48, Stamford-street, London, August 2, 1844.
Sir,—I have much pleasure in bearing testimony to your
unique and elegant preparation of Senna, which contains in a
highly-concentrated form the active principle of that valuable
Domestic Aperient. I have taken it out with me twice to India,
and having found it to preserve the active principle of Senna,
quite free from fermentation, I consider it admirably adapted'
for persons travelling abroad ; and am quite sure, that no per-
son who knew its value would ever take a voyage without a
supply of your Sweet Essence of Senna.
I remain, Sir, yo urs respectfully,
To Mr. J. Freeman. R. MAPLETON, Surgeon.

tues of the root than any other preparation. Its beneficial
effects have been particularly striking in the following com-
plaints :—Nocturnal Pains in the Limbs, Scrofulous Enlarge-
ment of the Glands, Cutaneous Affections, C roilic Rheuma-
tism, &c., &c, •in freeing the system aft a course of Mer-
cury, its beneficial effects are very p rful. It purifies the
blood, and by giving to the cutane vessels a healthy and
regular action, it removes that disOsition to Erysipilatous In-
flammation, from which so mr y persons periodically suffer;

tive Medicine, it will be f• m rid to impart that strength to the

tite, and freshness of j e complexion.
