scented to them, which possesses the qualities cal
culated to render the most important service III
cleansing the alimentary canal; they will operate
with sufficient force, and still with ease safety
there is no ingredient in them that will render
them dangerous TO taking cold, any
particular care in diet necessary. They have been
used by the proprietor with abundant success in
an extensive medical practice for many years.
He can therefore confidently recommend them
to the public patronage. Il 10 not V"uly pretend

answer the purposes for which they offered as
