lEOLLOWAY's OINTMENT.

EpAD LEGS, BAD BREASTS, SORES AND UL
 AD cERs.-All descriptions of sores are mCdi- able by the proper and diligent of this inesti-
 maide preparation. To attempt to cure sd legs ey clustering the edges of the wound is a folly | ter should the skin unite a boggy diseased cOndi ton remains underneath to break out with ten- folG fury in few days. The only rational and successful treatment, indicated by nature is to | reduce the inflammation in about the wound and to soothe the neighhoring parts by rubbing in plenty of the Ointment as salt is forced into meat DIpTnERIA, ULcERATED SORE THROAT, AND SCARLET AND OTHER FEvERs.-Any of the above diseases may be cured by well rubbing the Oint- ment three times day into the chest throat and neck of the patient it will soon penetrate, and give immediate relief. Medicine taken by the mouth must operate upon the whole system ere it's influence can be felt in any local part, whereas the Ointment will do its work at once. Whs- ever tries the unguent in the above manner for the diseases named, or any similar disorders affecting the chest and throat, VIII hnd thsm- selves relieved as by charm.
 PILES, FIsrULAs, STRUCTURES The above elass of complaints will be removed by nightly fomsnt ing the parts with warm water. and then by most effectualy rubbing in the Ointment. Persons suffering from these direful complaints should lose not r:ouent in arresting their progress It should be understood that 1t Is not sufficient merely to si!,,ur she Ointment on the affected parts bn: il must be we'll rubbed in for some considerable tiu two or three times day, that it may be taken into the system, whence it will remove any hidden sore or wound as ctfectually as though palpable to t!r eye. There again bread and water poutices. after the rubbing in of the Ointment, will do great service. This is the only sure treatment for females cases of cancer in ths stomach. where there may be general bear ing down.
 INDlscREfIoNs OF YoUTH, SORES AND ULCERS. --BiotcLes, as also swellings, can with certainty be radically cured if the Ointment be used freely, and the Pills be taken night and morning as re- commended in the printed instructions. Wben treated in any other way they only dry up in one place to break out in another whereas this Ont- mcnt will remove the humor from the system,
 and leave the patient vigorous and healthy be-
 ing. It will require time with the use of the Pills to ensure lasting cure
 pRoPsIcAL SwELLISGs, PARALYSIS, AND STIFT JoISrs. Although the above complaints dilfeI widely in their origin and nature, yet they all re- quirc local treatment. Many of the worst cases, of such diseases. will yield in comparatively short space of time when this Ointment is dli- gently rubbed into the parts affected, even after every other means have failed. In all serious maadies the Pills should be saken according to the printed directions accompanying each box.
