FREEMAN'S CONCENTRATED SYRUP, OR,
SWEET ESSENCE OF SENNA.
Patronised by her Majesty the Queen Dowager. many of
the Nobility, and most of the eminent Physicians and
Medical Men in London.

SENNA is known by all to be the best and safest aperient
medicine which mankind possesses.
Question.—Why, then, is it not used in preference and to
the exclusion of all other purgatives ?
Answer.—Because of its nauseating taste and griping pro-
perties.

THE man who could dispossess so invaluable a medicine
of these two disagreeable qualities, it has long been re-
marked, would confer a blessing on mankind, to accomplish
which was considered impossible • but it has at length been
effected by the proprietor of the above preparation, in which
is contained all the active principle of senna entirely deprived
of its nauseating and griping properties, and rendered so ex-
ceedingly pleasant to the taste that no child will refuse to
take it, and which, while it is so peculiarly adapted to infancy
and youth, is at the same time a most desirable medicine for
persons of all ages, particularly ladies and those of delicate
constitution. Let every fond mother provide herself with
this valuable Domestic Aperient, and she will have reason to
bless the day on which she became acquainted with this ME-
DICINAL NOVELTY, which is not only the best, the most
efficacious, and most agreeable purgative on earth, but is also
the cheapest medicine ever Made known, there being from
20 to 30 doses for an infant in one shilling bottle.—Prepared
only by the inventor, JOHN FREEMAN, Pharmaceutical Che-
mist, 13, Blackfriars-road, London, and sold by special ap-
pointment by Mr. LATHBURY, Chemist, Castle-street, Li-
verpool, and may be had of all respectable Druggists, in
bottles at ls. 2s. Gd., and ss. each, bearing the proprietors

too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be with-
