THE above, and 208 other Medical Gentlemen, have given
the most flattering certificates of the great value and
superiority of WOODHOUSE'S JETHEREAL ES-
SENCE of JAMAICA GINGER, which is particularly
recommended to all cold phlegmatic, weak, and nervous
constitutions. It is certain in affording instant relief in
Cholera Morbus, Spasms, Cramps, Flatulence, Hysterics,
Heartburn, Hiccup, Loss of Appetite, sensation of Ful-
ness, Pain and Oppression after Meals ; also those Pains of
the Stomach and Bowels which arise from Gouty Flatulen-

doubting the efficacy of this Medicine, may take a dose in the
Proprietor's shop before they purchase. The Proprietor
earnestly recommends a trial of these Drops to persons af-
flicted with the above complaints, but he does not introduce
them as being an infallible cure, (as many do) but is warranted
in asserting their efficacy from the extensive relief afforded
in numerous cases of the above description. Constitutional
Coughs of three, four, and more years standing, have been
cured in the course of a week by the use of these Drops. In
the looping and Chin Coughs it will he found equally valu-
