sdered or admitted that another can be added

ed The above medicine solely for his own use,
had never intended 10 have circulated II beyond
his own family circle or neighborhoodj but his
experience Of rs sautary effects IN innumeraDle
instances and the daily numerous calls from
The Public, and the advice OF his friends, rem
der an apology scarcely necessary for Offering
il TO the public, believing that they VIII ma ~

ali external complaints, not only for the human
snecies. but also for The brute creation The

their conneyion with smith-shops, foundries,
steamboats, and steam engines generally.

by asking for, but we shall offer only few,
preferring that the public should prove the eth

best evidence.
