GENUINE COD LIVER OIL.-RUSHTON,
"a CLARK & CO, publish the following caution
to purchasers of Cod Liver OIL
CAuTIoN.-Since publishing our first edition of the
pamphlet on Cod Liver Oil, the medicine has been ex
ensivey used by the Medical Profession, both in the
city and country and with decided success in cases of
Consumption, Chronic Rheumatism, &C.. but like all
medicine much in demand, it unfortunately aduera-
ted and initiated to great EXTENT and much dsap-
poinment will invariably result when the patients are
unfortunate to have the spurious article palmed off
to them for the genuine. We, ourselves, lately exam
ined two samples OF Oil sent by different manutactu-
rersto the New York Druggists, as specimens Of their
manner found that SO far from being pure, they did not
either of them contain particle Of Pure Cod Liver
O--and great deal OF Oil has been made from the
iversof other fish, and represented pure Cod Liver
Oil.
It is much to be regretted that medicine really SO
and Scrofua should be SO easily and successfully im-
tated to defy the detection OF any but the most expe
renced Judges. Another supply fresh received for
