Under the patronage of his late Majesty, hPr Royal High-
ness the Duchess of Kent, and the Lords of the Treasury,)
TS universally recommended by the Faculty for its efficacy
X. in removing Disorders incident to the Eyes and Head.
It will prevent Diseases of a Scrofulous Nature affecting the
Nerves of the Head. In cases of Nervous Head-ache it is
completely efficacious, and gives a Natural Sweetness to the
Breath. It may be taken as frequently as other Snuffs, with
the most perfect safety and gratification to the consumer.
Wash the eyes every morning with warm milk and water, to
remove whatever secretion may have been produced during
the night.

DrABERNETHY used it, and termed it the Faculty's
Friend and Nurse's Vade Mecum.

Dr. ANDREWS also recommends its use as a preventive.
(See his report when in Sunderland, published in the Times,
Cheltenham Journal, and British Traveller, in Nov. 1831.)
He says, " the herbaceous quality of the snuff had such effect
on the stomach, as well as the nerves of the head, from the
tenacious sympathy of the membrane of the nose with the
nervous system, that Grimstone's Eye Snuff, when taken
frequently, must prevent any contagion entering the system,
and recommends its universal adoption. Dated Nov. 10,1831.
G. J. GuTnittE, Esq., F.R.S.—This emident surgeon
strongly recommends Grimstone's Eye Snuff. See J. B.
Lachtield's, Esq., letter.
