SPEAKING.

r N speaking of medicine as general thing
great deal too much is said, but in our o.
pinion enough is not said in the papers in favor
of BENEFITS EMBRocATi0S. The proprietors
do not advertise as extensively in the papers
as some others and consequently their linilnent
is not pulled and blown as some others are.
They appear to rely upon the merit of their lin.
imcnt to recommend ITSELF andt does seem
from this alone it is gaining steady and per-
manent popularity, and is designed to become
one of the most celebrated Linments in use.
We have heard Of instances where il has cured
or relieved Rheumatism in one night when it
had been used according to directions. There
are cases of its having cured tooth ache in u
minute by its being applied in the cavity of the
tooth or around the gum 1t will euro puins,

instantly, there is no doubt OF its being very
powerful. I, is used for horses with as much
