after using only one bottle, found myself per-

so powerfully OH myself, | determined to ap.

NOTHING is of more importance han
the preservation of health--this common lacep
remark however is TOO OFTEN FORGOTTEN,
whilst we are active and strong-anl pre-
vention of pain, which is superior to its cure,
is not sufficiently attended to by any descripti-
on of persons. Among those disorders which
require the most early and unremitting efforts
: to eradicate and overcome, none have strong
er claim upon our notice than the Govt Rheu-
matism, Lumbago, Weakness Of the Joints,
Sprains, elects, the Stone and Gravel, the
Cramp and every species of Rheumatic Pains
from whatever cause they may have originat-
ed-and hence every relief which can be adj
ministered is too valuable to be .fo,gotten.--
Those persons whose avocations peculiarly ex-
pose them to colds, sc. cannot be too anxious
ways to possess immediate aid. Sea-faring
persons, travellers, &s, ought constantly to
