child was very sick. and it was thought doubtful
whether she would live The humor rcsembled black

remedies gave the child this Syrup for about six

This test satisfied me that the Rock Rose possessed

that his Syrup Pank rite aH-heaing, and

opinion Of its value for the abovc-named diseases
remain unchanged. and the same as when wrote Mr.
Myers in Oct. 1850. do not recommend it for all
the ills of our suffering humanity but unhcsitat'

believe il superior to any known curative agent.

to establish its adoption to extensive usefulness in
mitigating human suffering and removing disease.
