NOTHING is of more importance that
the preservation OF health---this common lacep
remark however Is TOO OFTEN FoRG OFTEN
whilst we are active and strong-and pre-
vention of pain, which is superior tosits cure,
is not sufficiently attended to by any descripti-
OH OF persons. Among those disorders which
require the most early and unremitting efo IS
TO eradicate and overcome, none have STRONG;
or claim upon our notice than the Govt, Rheu
n,atism, Lulnbago, Weakness of the Joints,
Sprains, elects, the Stone and Gravel, the
Cranlp and every species OF Rheumatic Pans
from whatever cause they may have origlnat-
ed--and hence every relief which can be adj
ministered is too valuable to be torgotten.--
Those persons whose avocatlons peculiarly eX-
pose Thorn to colds, &c. cannot be too anxious
always to possess immediate aid. oea-tarlng
persons, travellers, SSc. ought constantly to
carry with them that medicine which VIII
counteract the unpleasans effects OF their PERI
] lous duties and especially those pains to which
their situation must expose them 10 those
who reside in or visit the West-lndies, and
Their warm climates, theywill be found upon
trial to convey the most lasting service and
will gradually destroy all tendency to disease
in the human frame, and preserve health and
vigor. Although great variety fprescrp-
tons have been published to cure the disor'
ders enumerated above, none has yet equalled
the GOUT AND EUMATIC DROPS Of

or that destructive habit of inconsideratc youth
which brings on SO prematarely the inhrnI-
est of old age.
Inremoying pulmonary affections, asthmas
and all disorders OF the lungs, 1t is the most
powerful remedy ever yet found, and the rellef

The chief ingredient of this cordial is
