he could bring against this cruel disease, was
compelled 10 acknowledge their incficacy, and
allow the monster to corrode and destroy the nose,

enis OF this compound fluid extract, which are
nine IN number, without heat; that is TO say,
neither decoction, infusion or maceration arc made
use Of; nor is the temperature Of the meustrum
used, allowed to exceed so deg. Fab. until every
particle of active principle is extracted, leaving
tastecss inert mass behind; thereby attaining the
whole OF the soluble ac,ive principle in highly
concentrated state, lcsving out the tecula, woody
fibre, etc., which encounters the extract obtained
| by dococton.
The proprietor therefore, has not only the sat
isfaction of assuring the medical faculty and the

strict chemical and pharmaceutical rules, but that

bic and active Vegetables, all of the choicest seec-
ton, which materially enhance its value in the
treatment of the diseases above mentioned. He

physicians and others under the fullest assurance
of It's superiority over that in common use.

of this extract, and great relief from the per-
| plexities attendant upon the treatment Of those
