CULLEN'S
Liquid Magnesia.

ME Transparent Solution of Magne-
u STA, is presented to the public, as the
most eligible mode of exhibiting Magne-
STA; as it possesses the virtues of that
medicine in an eminent degrees ex-
tremely palatable; acts more speedily
with greater certainty, and does not form
|concretions in the bowels, as Messrs.
Brande and Monroe have discovered, are
produced, by the use of solid Magnesia;
if combines with its antacid and aperient
principles, the very desirable property of
composing the stomach, and allaying the
most excessive vomiting; also, carrying
off bile and offensive matter; from hence
may be inferred its great efficacy in the
summer complaints Of chiIdren, females,
&c. &c.
Head ache, giddiDess, thirst, weakness
and oppression, difficulty of breathing,
palpitation and nervous complaints, Aatu.
Ience, heartburn, piles, and many of the
most formidable diseases, almost invaria-
bly, owe their origin TO costiveness. To
remedy this indolent state of the bowels,
the Solution of Msguesia is proposed, (al-
ter considerable experience as an effectu
al laxative, and most agreeable drink.
To persons Of billions habits, it is re-
commended as an excellent corrector Of
bile and acidity-acts as gentle aperient,
establishes a permanent and temperate
state Of the bowels, restoring appetite and
promoting digestion.
A discretionary use of this agreeable
beverage, enables persons of every age,
sex, and constitution, TO keep their bowels
moderate, without the use of salts or
drastic purges, (hitherto used,) which
never fail to confirm the costive habits
they were intended TO remove, and to dis
order for life the organs of digestion.
In weak stomachs, uric and other acids
are evolved; causing gravel, govt, stiff
ness and concretions of the joints this
Solution will often cure, and always pal
late these affecting complaints. Indi
gestion and other disorders Of the system,
frequently proceed from an acidulous state
of the stomach, and children are particu-
larly subject to this depraved condition of
that organ, 10 consequence of their exist
ing almost exclusively on milk and vege
table diet; small quantity of the Solu
ton, will in short time neutralize the
existing acid, and if used for some time,
will prevent the formation Of any new acid.
