Froua 'the John Bull, 6th May, 1839.—We copy the f
lowing from the Cheltenham Journal, being struck by its
ference to that eminent and successful oculist, James Wa.
Esq., whose.opinion touching the subject of whi
-he treats will be read with interest. The discovery of N.
Grirnstone is simple, gentle, and certain, and by its unfaili
influence on the nervous fabric of the head, possesses the u
questionable powet of relieving, assisting, and prolonging t
sight even to extreme old age.—Editor.
Cheltenham Journal, 22d April, 1839.—" That most c
rent oculist, James Ware, Esq., F.R.S., was so strong!,
pressed with the utility of snuff not made of tobacco, t'
the third volume of the Medical Soc.ets. - Wort-
this able oculist read several cases of g_
the plentiful use of snuff. This snuff was made witt
aid of tobacco, that being too great a narcotic to be
a remedy. The anticipations of this gentlenien ha,
fully realised by Mr. William Grimstone, the Inver
Eye Snuff, made from aromatic herbs, so judicious
ranged as in almost every case of disease touching tl
ear,,and the delicate organs of the head, to produce a
cure."—Editor.
"There are, perhaps,.few articles which are so univ<
used as snuff, and various and innumerable have bee
devices to tickle our noses at the expenseiof our pocket
there is only one snuff—albeit many have been attemp
which .has proved of any value, or indeed realised the i
tion of the consumers. Grimstone's Eye Snuff is a deli!:
and fragrant compound, and possesses properties pecul
its own.; for, unlike all other snuffs, it is really of esse
and important service to persons of studious habits, at
weak and infirm sight ; and if we may judge by the flume
medical gentlemen who have borne testimony to its me
and the many well authenticated cures it has performed,
not undeserving of the high esteem which it has air(
attained, not only in this but iu other countries."—Qld
