essary qualities to entitie il to public favor
Long experience furnishes ample testimony
that as a Liniment adapted to meet the wants
and emergencies of all classes, "Merchant's
Gargling OIL" in its appropriateness to both
man and beast, merits the appreciation with
which it is received. Possessing in a high de-
gree the properties of an anodyne and restor-
alive, it has a wonderful influence over many
painful diseases. Its great efficacy to heal is
attributable to the chemical combination Of
the choice ingredients of which it is CON-
posed.
