MENT, formerly Judkins)
WhenI first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had in several instances experienced its good effects,
it TO several physicians, with instructions IN what
cases to apply it, who of opinion that the ONT
ment would be valuable public benefit. concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally fall into many
hands, some of whom would probably undertake to
make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process--ne
yertheless it might be progated in this sduerated ST.
nation. as il might in some degree resemble the org
nal-and in this way its good effects would be obitera'
ted Under these considerations, secured the orIg'
nsl and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases
some of which have so long bafed the skill of me-
dicsl sciences:

Cd SoIe legs and ulcers oflong standing,
Sd Schirrus or ganduar tumors, particularly hose

medical faculty. II is much safer than mercurlaI ap
pcatons Gas it does contain the smallest atom of
anv preparation Of the mineral, because it does not
lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold
