AS OXON'S EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN APE-
RIENT, for Indigestion, Bilious Affections, Casual or
Habitual Costiveness, Piles, &c. &c., and as an invaluable
cure and preventive of Gout.
This elegant preparation of Magnesia, the result of much
study and experiment, is fast superseding all other medicines
of its class, and is now very generally acknowledged to be
the best purgative ever introduced as a public medicine. The
almost unprecedented sale which it has obtained has aroused
the cupidity of many unprincipled persons, who are always
ready to take advantage of the popularity of another's
invention; and this medicine has therefore been very exten-
sively imitated, by Compounds possessing none of its pro-
perties. Purchasers can only rely upon the Government
Stamp,
Smith,(rhielin cli
,inthegenuine article, has " Moxon and
co-partners,) Chemists, Hull," engraved on it.
This is the only certain proof of the genuine preparation.
Not being ranked amongst quack specifics, its valuable
properties have obtained for it the recommendation of many
members of the medical profession, (among others those of
Drs. Graham and Turnbull,) and numbers of the nobility,
clergy, and gentry of the land. It is universally allowed, by
all who have given it a fair trial, to be superior to all other
medicines as a FAMILY PURGATIVE ; and as an invaluable
companion to the traveller, particularly those visiting tropical
countries ; the sportsman, the delicate female, the sedentary
student ; and to all persons subject to irregularities of the
bowels, and the disorders resulting therefrom. A teaspoon-
ful taken after any excess, either in eating or drinking, will
restore the tone of the stomach, and relieve all unpleasant
symptoms. If taken regularly for some time previous to
the usual time of experiencing a fit of Gout, it will generally
prevent, and always mitigate the severity of the attack,
without that injury to the constitution which is consequent
upon the use of colchicum and other strong sedatives.
To those afflicted by Indigestion, Bilious Disorders, Sick-
headache, and all other affections caused by an imperfect
performance of the functions of the digestive organs, it affords
a pleasant and effectual remedy, its operation being at once
effective sand unattended by griping or other unpleasant
symptoms. Testimonials from several medical and other
gentlemen are inserted in the bill inclosing each bottle.
Sold retail, at 2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., and lls. each bottle, by all
respectable Medicine Vendors ; and wholesale by Barclay
and Sons, and all the London Medicine Houses ; and
Raimes, Edinburgh.
