For the Cure Of all Diseases Of the
F. x I n.

- IVA IL 1Ve
TEHHE Inventor of this elegant prepare
ration, is a gentleman of distinguished
ability in the medical profession, who has
devoted the last 80 years Of his life to the
investigation and study of disease in all its
multifarious forms. A class of maadias
such as, letter, Scald-head, Salt Rheun,
BARRIERS Itch Ringworm, Itch, and every
species Of disease, with which the skin OF
mankind is familiar, he has, of late years
made the subject of laborious study and
research; and has finally succeeded in dis
covering remedy, which bids fair TO be-
come of universal application in the cure OF
these tormenting, AMI in many cases, very
disgusting atlictions. That remedy is the
Almond Cera4e;
which the propri2tors, now Offer to the pub.
lie, feeling convinced of its ultimate tri-
umph over all other Cerates or Ointm ,nts,
whose wonderful virtues, are pulled and
Wanted to the skies, as SPECIFICS for the
cure Of all the ellis that flesh is heir to-
This monstrous absurdity is not claimed for
our preparation. 1t not believed that it
will cure consumption, favers, asthma, sick
haadache, rheumatism, dyspepsia, inAanaa-
tons of the bowels, kidneys Or brain, as
certain Ointments we could name, are al
most warranted to do. But that tn, Al

has cured the following diseases. viz: let
ter, Ringworm, Scaldhcad, Salt Rheum,
Itch, Barber's Itch, Fever sores, Blister
sores, Ulcers, sore lips, chapped hands, cha
fed limbs, incised, laceratet and confused
wounds, and cutaneous eruptions of what
ever character, can be proven beyond cavil
! or doubt. Certificates OBJ aimed from midi
viduals. VITO have been benefited by the
Almond Csrata, have been procured and
will be published. .... .. .... ...s...r
In conclusion, we say, that the Almond
Cerate, is very valuable preparation, and
as the truth of this assertion can only be
tested By giving it trial, we leave it with
out further ceremony, with a discerning
public, to applaudits virtues, Or condemn
its inefficiency. Before using the Carate or
Ointment, the part should b., washed with
warm water and soap; CASTLE soap is the
! best to. use when it can be obtained,) and
then the cerate rubbed well over the disca-
sed surface. This application in bad case
of letter, BARRIERS Itch, or scald-head,
should be made three or four times day,
other skin diseases to BE- treated in the same
way, applying the ceratc 2 Oh ) timas day
until cure is effected. s... .....
