Uo(loway'S Ointment and Pills for
The Cure Of sore LegS The wife of Mr.
Thomas Fronde, an officer in the police.
at Plympton, near Plymouth, had bad
leg for upwards of six years, caused by a
blow, to cure which she had the best
medical advice, and tried various rene
dies without success. She was then in.
duced to try IIolloway's Ointment and
Pills, and these invaluable medicines
have effected perfect cure in a very
short space of time The efficacy of
these remedies is too well known to re-
quire praise, as there are none superior
for healing old wounds, ulccrous sores,
or king evil and all diseases Of the Skin.

DYSPEPSIA.

1t has long been the study of Physi-

most distressing complaint. Whether
they have been successful, remains for
the sufferers to say. There are, in this
country hundreds of thousands who are
suffering from Indigestion, probably, in
most cases, caused by their own impru-
dence in living To these we would say
try Myers Extract of Rock Rose. 1t
