SASSAFRAS CHOCOLATF

R. DE, LA MOTTE'S nutritive, health-restoring
. AROMATIC CHOCOLATE, prepared from the Nuts of
the Sassafrag Tree. This Chocolate contains the peculiar vir-
tues of the Slissafras• Root, which has been long held in great
estimation for its purifying and alterative properties. The
aromatic quality (which is very grateful to the stomach) most
invalids require for breakfast and evening repast, to promote
digestion; and to a deficiency of this property in the customary
breakfast and supper may, in a great' measure, be attributed
the frequency of cases of. indigestidn generally termed bilious.
It has been found highly ben cial in correcting the state of
the digestive organs, &c., m whence arise many diseases,
such as eruptions of the n, gout, rheumatism, and scrofula.
In cases of debility of t stomach and a sluggish state of the
liver and intestines, casioning flatulence, costiveness, &c.,
and in spasmodic a ma, it is much recommended.
Sold in pound packets, by the PATENTEE, 12., Southampton-
street, Strand, London; also by Chemists. Mr. F. G. JONES,

COLLEGE OF MEDICINE AND SURGERY,
ESTABLISHED ISV,
27, WHITECHAPEL, L ERPOOL,
FOR the reduction of Fractu s and Dislocations of
the Bones, (BONE SETTIN ,) and the cure of Cancer,
Scrofula, Scurvy, Leprosy, Wif e Swellings, Ulcers, Fistula,
&c.
Surgeon.—J. S. TAYLOR, .R.C.S., L.A.C., Prizeman of St.
Bostholomew's Hospital, ndon, in the Session 1843-4, &c.,
who may be consulted ly from 9to 3, and 6to 9 ; and on
Sundays from 10 to 2.
The following case 11 illustrate the success of the treatment
adopted :-
0 James Pollard, aged 20 years, residing at 65, Preston-street,
had suffered from a most inveterate scrofulous complaint of
the head from the early age of four years; his head was a
complication of such accumulated disease, so loathsome to the
sight, so offensive to the smell, and altogether so repulsive,
that those who were under the necessity of attending upon him,
performed that service with reluctance. He had been under
the care of different gentlemen of the medical profession, com-
bining all the skill and talent of this neighbourhood. He was
also a patient for ten months in the Liverpool Infirmary, and
six months at the Dispensary ; but there the combined skill of
the most eminent of the faculty was defeated, as the individual
exertions had before been. As a last effort he was placed under
the care of Mr. Taylor, who succeeded in effecting a perfect
cure, and be is now well, healthy, clean, and strong, and likely
to have a good bead of hair.
