FREEMAN'S
in a highly-concentrated form all the active princi-
ple of Senna entirely; deprived of its nauseating and griping
properties, and rendered so peculiarly pleasant to the taste,
that children will take it with a positive relish.
The extraordinary merit of this medicinal novelty has ob-
tained for it the distinguished patronage of Her Majesty—the
Queen Dowager—the following Physicians to Her Majesty and
the Queen Dowager, Sir C. M. Clark, Bart., M.D., Dr. Fergu-
-8,2n, and Dr. Locock—Sir David Davies, and Dr. Holland—by
many Princes Nobles, and Families of distinction—by most of
_l.e eminent Physicians and Medical Men in London, who have
"etn for several -years, and now are, in the daily habit of pre-
scribing and recommending it as the best and safest domestic
Perient for females and children—the aged and delicate—the
Zrv,ons—the bilious—the habitually costive, and those suffer-
'Tom piles, worms, sickness,. or headache, and as being
P,,articularly adapted for ladies during pregnancy, and children
'tiling dentition.
Impelled by a sense of duty, confident of conferring a great
national benefit, the Proprietor proudly submits it to the pa-
tronage of a discerning public, assured that a single trial will
convince every one of its inestimable value as a pleasant, safe,
and efficacious domestic aperient, the moderate price of which
places it within the reach of every family. Sold by all respect-
able Venders of Medicine, in bottles at Is. lid., 2s. 6d., 4s. 6d.,
Ils., and 20s. each.
CAUTION.—The great celebrity this medicine has attained,
flaying induced many druggists in Scotland and England to
put up for sale base and worthless imitations, to the serious
tolury of the original preparation, purchasers are therefore
requested to ask for Freeman's Sweet Essence of Senna, each
genuine bottle of which is signed John Freeman.
