From the John Bull, 6th May, 1839.—We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cheltenham Journal, being struck by its re-
ference to that eminent and successful oculist, James Ware,
Esq., F.R.S., whose opinion touching the subject of which
he treats will be read with interest. The discovery of Mr.
Grimstone is simple, gentle, and certain, and by its unfailing
influence on the nervous fabric of the head, possesses the un-
questionable power of relieving, assisting, and prolonging the
sight even to extreme old age.—Editor.
Cheltenham Journal, 22d April, 1839.—" That most emi-
nent oculist, James Ware, Esq., F.R.S., was so strongly im-
pressed with the utility of snuff not made of tobacco, that in
the third volume of the Medical Society's Works, page 334,
this able oculist read several cases of gutta serena cured by
the plentiful use of snuff. This snuff was made without the
aid of tobacco, that being too great a narcotic to be used as
a remedy. The anticipations of this gentlemen have been
fully realised by Mr. William Grimstone, the Inventor of
Eye Snuff, made from aromatic herbs, so judiciously ar-
ranged as in almost every case of disease touching the eye,
ear, and the delicate organs of the head, to produce a certain
cure."—Editor. . . _

" There are, perhaps, few articles which are so universally
used as snuff, and various and innumerable have been the
devices to tickle our noses at the expense of our pockets, but
there is only one snuff—albeit many have been attempted—
which has proved of any value, or indeed realised the inten-
tion of the consumers. Grimstone's Eye Snuff is a delightful
and fragrant compound, and possesses properties peculiarly
its own ; for, unlike all other snuffs, it is really of essential
and important service to persons of studious habits, and of
weak and infirm sight ; and if we may judge by the numerous
medical gentlemen who have borne testimony to its merits,
and the many well authenticated cures it has performed, it is
not undeserving of the high esteem which it has already
attained, not only in this but in other countries."—Old Eng-
land, 11th January, 1840.
"We should be glad to see this snuff in general use. It is
a safe and powerful restorative.—Manchester Chronicle.
" GairusToNE's EYE SNUFF.—Notwithstanding the sys-
tem of puffing which is carried on in this vast metropolis, we
rsally must claim for Mr. Grimstone the distinction of being
a benefactor to his species. We have had ocular demonstra-
tion of the value of his snuff, which we tried out of curiosity,
having at the same time a slight affection of opthalmia, which
the use of the snuff very speedily removed. We therefore
cordially recommend it to the public."—Crown,Aug.26,lB3B.
" If any testimony were wanting to prove the efficacy of
Grimstone's Eye Snuff, we should be most happy to throw
ours into the grand scale of demonstrations and proofs already
possessed by the inventor. Literary men, and individuals
accustomed to sedentary habits or long reading, will find this
snuff invaluable in keeping off headache, dizziness, &c.'Sce.
