IMPORTANT 'TO LADIES,

THE GENUINE AND -POPULAR MEDICINE.
PATRONISED BY THE QUEEN.
•
THE high and universal -celebrity which ATKIN-
SON'S ROYAL INFANT'S PRESERVATIVE continues
to maintain, as a safe and agreeable medicine, renowned for its
efficacy in preventing or removing the disorders to which in-
fancy is liable, affording instant relief in convulsions, flatulency,
affections of the bowels, difficult teething, the thrush, rickets,
measles, pooping-cough, cowpox, or vaccine inoculation, and
may be given with safety immediately after birth. It Is no
misnomer cordial I—no1—no stupefactive, deadly narcotic !—but a
veritable preservative of infants! Mothers would do well in
,always keeping it in the nursery. Many thousands of children
Are annually saved by this much-esteemed medicine, which is
-an immediate remedy, and the infants rather like it than other-
wise. In short, whether this medicine enters the palace or the
cottage, the proprietor feels an honest conviction of its power
to assuage maternal pain for infant suffering—to convert that
pain into gladness, that suffering into balmy repose. It is
equally efficacious for children or adults, in English cholera,
spasms, pain into the bowels, and other complaints of the in-
testines, owing to wind or obstructions in the digestive organs.
It is highly recommended by the faculty.

CELEBRATED THROI r;HOUT THE GLOBE.
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT
CURE OF FISTULOU SORES AND PLEURISY.

Extract of a Letter from Mr. 11 ,bert Calvert, Stohealey, dated

September 3rd, 1847.

To Professor HOLLOWAY.
Slit,—Mr. Thompson, National Schoolmaster of this Town,
desires me to send you the particulars of his Son, who had been
bad for three years and a half, and has received the greatest
benefit by the use of your Pills and Ointment He is of a scro.
fulous constitution : a pleurisy had left a large collection of
matter in the chest ; this eventually formed a passage through
the wales of the chest, and ended in three fistulous sores which
discharged large quantities of pus, when he was induced to try
your Pills and Ointment; at this date he was apparently in a
dying condition, the stomach rejected every thing it took.
Your Pills and Ointment had the effect of completely curing
both the cough and stomach affections, his strength and flesh
are also restored, his appetite keen, and digestion good. There
is every prospect that a little further continuance of your me-
dicines will finish the cure. (Signed) ROBT. CALVERT.
The " Mofussilite" Newspaper, published at Meerut, has, on
the 15th October, 1847, copied an article from the " Benares
Recorder." of which the following is an Extract :
" The Prince of MAHARAJAH BISSONATH SINGH, who was
temporarily residing at Chittercote, was suddenly taken ill with
Spasmodic Colic, and during his illness His Highness often
asked for Holloway's Pills and Ointment, as he had heard much
of their virtues, but none could be obtained in the neighbour-
hood, and Professor Holloway, no doubt, unfortunately loses a
certificate which would have graced and dignified his list of
cures."

The native Princes are now using Holloway's celebrated Pills
and Ointment in preference to every other medicine, they
being so wonderfully efficacious in the cure of diseases in
India.

Copy of a Letter from IV. E. Powell, M.D.. 16, Dies:l)29ton-

street,'publin, dated FebrUary 9th, 1847

DEAR SIR,-1-aving de'voted my attention for some years to
cutaneous or skin diseases, I think it but right to iaform you
that I have in various cases recommended the use of your Pills
and Ointment, and invariably found them to have the most
Perfect effect in removing those diseases.
