From long acquaintance with DR.. Jayne's Car
minative Balsam, i believe il to be very happy
combination, and a useful medicine in many com
plants which almost constantly in our coun-
try, such as Bowel Affections Of children, Cholc,
Cramps, Looseness, Dyspeptc, Disorders of the
Stomach, Coughs, and Affections of the Breast, to-
gether with all those diseases attended with sour
ness of the Stomach; and believe that physicians
will often find it useful remedy in their hands, and
one that is proper for domestic use and can be put
into the hands Of persons large with perfect safety
