Superine Yellow Bark.

THIS POWDER, consisting chiefly OF
the extractiye matter and reslnous portion Oh
the bark, wherein its virtue as medicine is
known to reside, is separated In degree
from the hard hbrous ana other useless parts
in manufacturing. 1t will, therefore, be
ound preferable, on account OF It's purify
strength, fineness, and the small quan'i'y
REQUIRED, to any other form in which the
bark has hitherto been generally used.
The superiority of this bark Will be parti-
cularly manifest in the treatment OF those
diseases in which, on account OF an irritable
state Of the stomach and bowels, the requl>
site quantity of the imperlectiy ground bark
IN common use cannot be administered and
as any Of the watery or spirltaous prepafa-
t;ons are well known to be Intellectual in ur-
pent cases, it is presumed that the present
form will prove generally acceptable.
The proprietor thinks it unnecessary 10
offer any apology to those of his meclcai ore'
thren to whom he is personally known, when
he recommends to them in particular this
elegant powder of bark since many OF them
have. in common with him, had So frequent
and painful occasion, in the course OF long
practice, to deplore the want OF SO desirable
form of using that inestimable remedy; and
so fully is he assured of its superior ethcacy'
from numerous proofs OF its effects, that he
offers it to the faculty in general, without
fearing the imputation ofimpo.ition.
