1t is highly recommended for open or liberated
Scrofula and Leprosy. No class of disea ses have
ever been considered more difficult to cure than
those of cutaneous kind, and it will be conceded
by all intelligent and candid physicians, that q
knowledge of the nature and successful treatment
of them is very limited and imperfect 1t is notorious
that many of these disorders have generally re-
sisted all the ordinary means of cure. Hence the
opinion so commonly prevalent, that they are in
durable, and it is probable that before the discov
cry and introduction Of Beatson's justly celebra-
ted remedy this belief was well founded. But

demonstrate the certainty of radical in al
most every case. The proprietor, therefore, con-
siders this ointment specific for the complaints
above enumerated.
This is no ''quDck' remedy, hut really certain
nd speedy cure: it has proved etfcac6us In every
case, without a single exception, for the last three
years, and invariably eradcates it in fourteen
days, however inveterate or long standing. These
assertions can be verified by reference to the nu.
merous respectable families who have seen and
felt its efficacy, and who have, from gratitude
offered their testimonials. 1t leaves neither smell
