BALM OF GILEAD,

A MONG the many specifics now offered to
IN the public, il will perhaps be hardly con-
sdered or admitted that another can be added
with propriety. The subscriber having procur-
ed the above medicine solely for his owl use,
had never intended to have circulated il beyond
his own family circle OF neghborhood; but his
experience OF It's salutary effects in innumcrable
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 will find in
il an invaluable friend, as a remedy for almost
all external complaints, not only for the human
species. but also for The brute creation The
immediate action and effect of il in many 10.
stances are perhaps unparalleled in the history OF
medicines. Ii will be found an invaluable
medicine to be kept in every family as ready
remedy for almost all external complaints that
families are subject to- such as burns, scalds
freezes cuts, bruises, sprains, sores of almost
every description, swelings, women's sore
breasts scrofula, ringworms erysipelas, chilled
feet, crick in the back and all rheumatic alice
lions, inflamnations generally and wounds on
horses, cattle, &c. &C., aud last but not least,
il has been applied with extraordinary success
to very badly nhamed eyes, and the effects 10
many instances have been so sudden and extra
ordinary that the subjects have for while been
in doubt whether TO attribute the cure to the
medicine OF supernatural causes. IL will be
found an invaluable remedy TO be kept by all
persons who are liable TO burns or scalds by
their conncxion with smith-shops, foundries,
steamboats, and steam engines generally.
Many certificates of the superior efficacy OF
this Liniment and Electuary might be procured
by asking for but we shall offer only a few,
prefering tina, the public should prove the eff
cacy Of it by actual experiment, which is the
best evidence.
